Sep 7 2005

Fungus and termites are infesting homes. Builders and home buyers can't afford to ignore the devastating consequences.

When excessive moisture is absorbed by wood it becomes an irresistible host for many destructive intruders. Perfect Barrier™ System is a factory applied, two part system developed by highly respected chemists. The first part is Perfect Barrier System's Infusion Film. The Infusion Film totally encapsulates wood substrates to form a water-repellant, vapor permeable film, which controls the moisture absorption capabilities of treated substrates while allowing moisture vapor to escape. The wood continues to breathe, maintaining a more natural moisture balance.

The Infusion Film is also treated to resist mold on the dried surface of the film.

The second part is Perfect Barrier System's DOT Wood Preservative, which contains fungicides and insecticides, providing protection from fungi and wood-ingesting insects, including Formosan termites.
