Air Barrier Projects

Air barriers are a critical component of high-performance building enclosure systems, and their effectiveness depends on proper detailing, coordination, and installation. At Robert A. Aird, Inc., air barrier work is approached as part of a complete façade assembly—not as an isolated scope.

​

We install fluid-applied and sheet air barrier systems throughout Maryland, Washington, DC, Virginia, and the Mid-Atlantic region across commercial, multifamily, institutional, and historic projects. Our team works in coordination with EIFS, stucco, plaster, and rainscreen systems to ensure proper sequencing, transitions, and substrate conditions for continuous air and moisture control.

​

From new construction to complex retrofit conditions, we deliver air barrier installations that support energy efficiency, moisture management, and long-term building performance. The projects below demonstrate our ability to execute air barrier systems across a wide range of building types and conditions.

​

Air Barrier System Performance:

• Improved energy efficiency through reduced air leakage

• Enhanced moisture management and condensation control

• Increased durability of wall assemblies and façade systems

• Improved indoor comfort and building performance stability

• Proper integration with EIFS, stucco, and cladding systems

• Compliance with modern energy codes and enclosure standards

When properly installed, air barrier systems play a critical role in the long-term performance of the building enclosure. With decades of façade experience, Robert A. Aird, Inc. delivers coordinated, high-quality air barrier installations that ensure continuity, reliability, and lasting performance.
