“With the NPE, you can now save half the time on installations

Normal tankless water heaters take 6-7 hours to install but the

NPE only takes 3 ½ hours. The NPE can use the existing ½” gas

pipe which is a major time saver.”

MAKING SENSE OF COMPLICATED BUILDING CODES

AND STANDARDS IS NOW DOWN TO A SCIENCE.

It’s a fact: building and energy codes that impact the walls you build are changing and becoming more demanding. Higher air-

leakage standards. Mandatory air in ltration testing. Increased R-value requirements as high as R-25 in some climate zones.

ese changes may have big implications for the homes you build. But the DuPont™ Building Knowledge Center can help you

understand the new requirements and translate them into practical, science-based construction and weatherization practices.

It starts with the new Cracking the Code e-brochure and the DuPont™ CodeSense™ Durable Wall Builder tool. Along with

DuPont™ Tyvek® Weatherization Systems, they’re the keys to building more durable walls that meet the codes, your customers

and your commitment to quality.

To get your free Cracking the Code e-brochure and learn more about building walls that last and last, visit durablewall.tyvek.com
