Escape |
12' & 16' Troughs Downspouts
Butyl Tape & Caulk |
Rain Escape attaches atop the joists,
under the decking. This product protects your deck framing from
water damage while funneling rainwater to the outer edge of the deck.
Since the bottom of the deck is still open, ceiling fans and light
fixtures can be added to the bottom of the deck. |
This product works best on new decks
where the decking has not been fastened yet. If the decking is
already down, the only way to use this product is to take up the
decking, install the system and re-deck. |
