RR-0105: Brick, Stucco, Housewrap and Building Paper

The manufacturers of housewraps have for years promoted the fantasy that water vapor in wall assemblies only moves one way – from the inside out. So, therefore, walls should be designed to “breathe” outwards. So, therefore, you should buy a highly vapor permeable housewrap. So, therefore, you should buy “our product.”
