Furring material for rainscreen

marc.kleinmann | Posted in Energy Efficiency and Durability on

All;
Been looking at different furring strip products for a ventilated rainscreen – have used Eldorado battens before but apparently supplier cannot get them right now. Looked at the Cor-A-Vent product and really like the integrated top and bottom insect screen. Looking for input from people that have used this system before.
Also, when using systems like Eldorado battens, what do you use for top and bottom insect screens?

Thx,
Marc
