Air Barriers in Arizona

Improve Energy Efficiency and Comfort
An air barrier is a continuous system designed to control airflow within your building’s enclosure. By sealing leaks and preventing uncontrolled air movement, air barriers improve energy efficiency, manage moisture, and create a more comfortable indoor environment.
How Air Barriers Work
Air barriers are applied as a liquid membrane that forms a durable, flexible coating under vertical surfaces such as brick and stone veneer, stucco or EIFS. This thick layer expands and contracts with temperature changes, sealing existing cracks and preventing new ones from forming.
Complete Building Envelopment Waterproofing
At A-1 CRW, we can protect your entire building envelope with:
- Air Barriers to stop uncontrolled airflow
- Stucco patching and installs for strength and beauty
- Elastomeric (Elasto) Paint for waterproofing and flexibility
- Below-grade waterproofing for stem walls and retaining walls
- Flat roof coatings for top-to-bottom protection
Adding an air barrier not only keeps out unwanted drafts, it also plays an important role in indoor air quality. By preventing outdoor pollutants, allergens, and moisture from entering, you create a healthier environment for families, employees, or tenants. This makes air barriers a smart choice for both residential and commercial buildings.
Because Arizona’s climate can change quickly, from hot, dry days to sudden monsoon storms, an air barrier provides year-round protection. It acts as the first line of defense in your Building Envelopment Waterproofing strategy, ensuring your property stays efficient, safe, and comfortable no matter the season.
