Use
The Euroweep-vent promotes ventilation and weeping throught the exterior masonory skin in which it is incorporated.Thus it may be used with appropriate trays, dpc's and lintels to evacuate penetrating water. It may also be used in timber frame construction to ventilate the cavity at low, intermediate and high levels. The smaller dimensions of this product make it suitable for use with a wide range of masonry course heights, including European masonry modules of less than 75mm height.
Introduction
Euroweep-vents are positioned within the perp joints between masonry. Their function is twofold. They act as a weep and also encourage the cavity to breathe. Euroweep-vents were developed and are now extensively used on the continent. They can also satisfy UK, N.H.B.C and Building Regulation requirements. Compact size does not compromise the performance of the Euroweep-vent which promotes excellent free airflow and discharge behaviour.
