SINGLE WYTHE MOISTURE CONTROL
PCC 4816, PCC 4832, PCC 2416, PCC 2432
The Perforated Control Cavity creates a separation between the interior surface of a single-wythe CMU structural wall and the moisture-sensitive materials of the finished interior wall. This system provides a defined drainage path, allowing moisture to travel downward and out of the wall into a drainage field—keeping interiors dry, efficient, and protected.
THE MTI ADVANTAGE
-
Separated single wythe wall from finished interior: Prevents moisture transfer and interior damage.
-
Perforated for cross ventilation: Enhances airflow for faster drying.
-
Integrated water-resistive barrier: Improves moisture protection and energy efficiency.
-
Durable and rigid: Will not compress behind the finished wall.
-
Sustainable: Plastic is made with 100% recycled content.
APPLICATIONS
PERFORATED CONTROL CAVITY INSTALLATION
-
Install with channel pattern running vertically and fabric facing the interior.
-
Overlap all edges and ends a minimum of 1".
-
Overlap horizontal edges shingle fashion (upper sheet laps behind lower sheet).
-
Cover the entire wall surface from top to bottom.
-
Mechanically fasten with concrete nails or power fasteners, spacing fasteners 2' on center.
PERFORATED CONTROL CAVITY SPECIFICATIONS
-
Thickness: 0.024" (0.6 mm)
-
Material: High-impact polystyrene sheets with cross-woven polyolefin fabric (GreenGuard® Classic Wrap)
-
Skirt: 4" (102 mm) on one edge
-
Recycled Content: 96% post-consumer
-
Function: Forms a ventilated, drained cavity between CMU and interior finishes
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The integrated GreenGuard® Classic Wrap provides air resistance to improve energy efficiency while acting as a breathable water-resistive barrier. This allows moisture vapor to escape and reduces condensation buildup within the wall assembly. For detailed specifications, refer to the GreenGuard® Classic Wrap technical documentation.
