StormFlash Self-Adhering Flashing Air and Moisture Barrier

Protect Your Home From Wind-Driven Rain And Damaging Ice Dams With A Waterproof Leak Barrier

Good Housekeeping

A Self-Adhering Flashing, Air & Moisture Barrier Will:

  • Eliminate leaks caused by wind-driven rain, ice, and snow build-up
  • Stop cold drafts
  • Stop wasting energy by sealing around window and door openings, rooftop penetrations, and roof deck joints

Some leaks aren’t detected until serious damage occurs. Protecting the vulnerable areas of your home with the installation of window and door flashing will help avoid the costly effects of dry rot, decay, and mildew.

StormFlash™ self-adhering flashing is a key part of the GAF-Elk Smart Choice® Roof System Solution.
