It <em>does<\/em> keep away mold and mildew that could wreak havoc on your home while creating a healthier environment, both inside and outside the building. By separating the home from the siding, it allows moisture to escape through the space in the wall cavity. The siding sits on furring strips or battens that help create an air space. Mesh based products are stapled to sheathing to create the vent space. The end product will allow the drainage planes to vent to the outside, locking out any moisture or any other foreign objects.<a href=\"http:\/\/ipedepot.com\/deckblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/rainscreen2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-390\" alt=\"rainscreen2\" src=\"http:\/\/ipedepot.com\/deckblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/rainscreen2-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ipedepot.com\/deckblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/rainscreen2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ipedepot.com\/deckblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/rainscreen2-448x300.jpg 448w, https:\/\/www.ipedepot.com\/deckblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/rainscreen2.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Some <\/b><strong>advantages<\/strong><b> of using Ipe rainscreen siding are:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lowers energy costs<\/li>\n<li>Reduces indoor air pollution<\/li>\n<li>Adds natural beauty to any home<\/li>\n<li>Keeps insects from crawling into your home<\/li>\n<li>Reduces mold and mildew on your home<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ipedepot.com\/deckblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/rainscreen3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-391\" alt=\"rainscreen3\" src=\"http:\/\/ipedepot.com\/deckblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/rainscreen3-200x300.jpg\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ipedepot.com\/deckblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/rainscreen3-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ipedepot.com\/deckblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/rainscreen3.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Moisture will have a hard time causing problems thanks to Ipe wood, especially since it is an extremely dense hardwood.
