A ventilation screed with an upper attachment flange having a top portion and a bottom portion and at least one opening in the top portion; a drip edge protruding from the bottom portion and a return leg that protrudes back from the drip edge and extends beyond the bottom portion; a drainage cavity protrusion protruding from the bottom portion above the drip edge, wherein the drainage cavity protrusion has an L-shaped drainage trough portion having at least one drainage opening in a bottom portion and a substantially vertical portion with a top end and a bottom end in communication with the bottom portion, an upper ground portion in communication with the top end of the substantially vertical portion of the L-shaped drainage trough portion extending outward from the substantially vertical portion and a drainage cavity shroud extending substantially downward from the upper ground portion.

An insulating siding panel comprises a backing member, and a siding member. The backing member comprises a front face, a rear face, a top face, and a bottom face. The siding member has an upper end, a lower end, and a nailing divot. An upper end of the backing member combines with the upper end of the siding member to form a tongue. A groove is defined in the bottom face of the backing member that is complementary in shape to the tongue. The nailing divot of the lower panel may be concealed by a front section of the backing member of the upper panel.

According to one embodiment, a flood vent includes a frame forming a fluid passageway through an opening in a structure. The flood vent further includes a door pivotally mounted to the frame in the fluid passageway for allowing a fluid to flow through the fluid passageway. The door has two opposing faces that include a first face and a second face. The flood vent further includes a first float positioned within the door in a location in-between the first face and a second float. Additionally, the first float is configured to allow the door to pivot in a first direction. The flood vent further includes the second float positioned within the door in a location in-between the second face and the first float. Furthermore, the second float is configured to allow the door to pivot in a second direction.

A vented and water control paneling has improved drainage and integrated ventilation air space. The water control paneling may be fabricated with an omnidirectional relief pattern formed on its back surface. The relief pattern spaces the vented and water control paneling away from a structure to which it is secured, thereby providing an omnidirectional drainage plane between the back surface of the paneling and the structure. The omnidirectional drainage plane provides an unimpeded ventilation and drainage path of water and/or water vapor.

According to one embodiment, a flood vent panel includes a plurality of insulation pieces positioned together, and a panel frame surrounding the plurality of insulation pieces. The flood vent panel is configured to be coupled to a frame positionable on a structure, so as to at least partially block a fluid passageway through an opening in the structure. Each of the plurality of insulation pieces is separate from the other insulation pieces of the plurality of insulation pieces. Each of the plurality of insulation pieces is separate from the panel frame.

A vented and water control siding has improved drainage and integrated ventilation air space. An omnidirectional relief pattern, creating an omnidirectional ventilation and drainage plane, may be located between a front surface of the first siding panel and a back surface of the second siding panel. In certain embodiments, another omnidirectional ventilation and drainage plane is located between the siding panels and an internal layer.

A vented and water control system has improved drainage and integrated ventilation air space. The system includes a vented and water control panel located between sheathing panel and an exterior cladding panel, having a front surface; and a rear surface having a ventilation and drainage pattern integral thereto.

A wall sleeve system for a ventilation system comprises one or more assemblies constituted in a modular manner, which can be flexibly combined with one another.

A ventilation screed comprising an upper attachment flange having a top portion and a bottom portion and at least one opening in the top portion; a drip edge protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange; a drainage cavity protrusion protruding from the bottom portion of the upper attachment flange above the drip edge, wherein the drainage cavity protrusion has a vertical portion of a L-shaped drainage trough portion and a bottom portion having at least one drainage opening along a meeting point of the upper attachment flange and the drainage cavity protrusion, an upper ground portion in communication with the L-shaped drainage trough portion and a drainage cavity shroud in communication with the upper ground portion, wherein the drainage cavity shroud extends past the drip edge.

A ventilation screed comprising a perforated attachment flange portion that is substantially vertical and at least one perforation between the top end and the bottom end; a first substantially horizontal flange portion attached to the top end of the perforated attachment flange at the first end; a first vertical flange portion attached at a point along a mid-section to the second end of the first substantially horizontal flange portion and having a first return leg; a second vertical flange portion attached to the underside of the first substantially horizontal flange portion along a mid-section and having a second return leg; a stepped flange portion attached to the top end of the first vertical flange portion; at least two drain vent openings in the first substantially horizontal flange portion between the first return leg and the second return leg.
