What is the issue with newer EIFS?
Since the late 1990’s the major manufacturer’s of EIFS system have come out with the newer water management EIFS systems. They incorporate a secondary drainage plane that provides and escape route for any water that makes it through the outer skin of the system. These systems are well designed, but unfortunately they rely upon installation details that are completely concealed after the system is completed. We are finding many homes built in this millennium that have severe water damage due to poor detailing by the installers. The other key issue with the newer system is that, just like with the older barrier systems, that can look perfect on the outside, yet be totally rotten on the inside.
