INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Position above openings: Install the Moisture Diverter™ directly above wall openings such as windows or doors. Ensure it is immediately above but not in contact with mounting flanges or flashing systems.
2. Ensure watertight seals: Secure the Moisture Diverter™ against moisture-resistant coatings on masonry or poured concrete walls.
3. Integrate with flashing: Overlap the Moisture Diverter™ shingle-fashion with flashing and the water-resistive barrier on framed walls.
