Diverters
A Water Management
Strategy For Sloped Roofs that Meet Vertical Walls
Designing roofs to prevent
moisture infiltration is a builder's first line of defense
in water management. Modern home inspection reports are showing
that as much as 80% of water intrusions at roof-to-wall intersections
are due to missing or incorrectly installed kick-out flashings.
Until now, there was no cost-effective way to manufacture
durable materials for dependable flashing.
Berger Kick-Out Diverters
truly meet the industry need for a consistent, quality approach
to resolving moisture penetration. They come in two styles:
molded polypropylene and solid copper. Polypropylene diverters
are available in four colors: brown, grey, tan and white.
Installation is easy
too. There is no need for field fabrication thus reducing
labor costs. And, Its molded design provides a durable, consistent,
self-positioning part. When installed with vinyl, wood, or
Hardiplank®, our diverters eliminate the overrun of water
between the endcap and the siding that can cause water stains
and mold.
