Level 13 Properties Owner and General Contractor, Rich Hoagland, knows a thing or two about building masonry buildings in Chicago, as well as installing WickRight Passive Ventilation. "When we build masonry buildings in Chicago, we try to build them with the idea that we know that moisture is gonna get into them and we give it a clear way to get out," Hoagland says. Hoagland's team installed WickRight passive ventilation on a fairly new (15-20 year old) high-end custom single family home in Lincoln Park that was built by one of the best homebuilders in Chicago at the time. This home had massive condensation and moisture issues not only in the roof cavity but also in the masonry cavity. Hoagland explained how WickRight works to the architect and the architect specified WickRight for installation on the parapet and along the low-slope roof. A year later, the building was dry. Per Hoagland, he's had zero issues or callbacks related to installing WickRight vented flashing products.

Rich Hoagland, a contractor in Chicago who specializes in condensation issues in roof cavities, says, he wouldn't even estimate a truss reinforcement or replacement project without a 365 Construction Tent! Per Hoagland, "365 tents can survive all the Chicago elements – rain, wind or snow and I've had no issues using a 365 Construction Tent."

Patented 365 Construction Tent rafters were invented by Bob Kelly, the guy that invented WickRight Passive Ventilation. Kelly started using early versions of the tent on his own truss reinforcement and replacement projects in 2016. Since then, the tent rafters and installation methods have been perfected and are ready for installation on most 20'x70' basic Chicago 3-flat footprint. Tent variations for larger buildings, balconies and custom designs are also available.

Standard tent installation take 4-7 days depending on the complexity of the design and the tents are normally on project for 2-6 months. 365 Construction Tents are constructed with 10mm white shrink wrap which allows natural daylight to come in, no additional lighting is needed during daylight hours and there is typically 9 feet of headroom at the center of most tents -- making it an easy environment for crews to work. The tents protect projects from driving rain and harsh Chicago winds and can also be heated consistently through the winter to keep crews warm and even do masonry work in January or February. 365 Tents are vented to keep air circulating and stack vent extensions are installed to keep crews safe.

Per Hoagland, "Our customers were all thrilled to know the inside of their house would be completely protected during the entire process." 365 Tents also allow contractors to schedule projects properly, knowing there will be zero weather delays. Per Hoagland, "the tent allows us to take our time and do things properly. We're not in a rush to get things back put back together quickly because the project is completely protected."

Bob Kelly, inventor of WickRight Passive Ventilation and founder of Wet Building Solutaions and the WickRight General Contracting team install Intelligent Membranes Passive Purple External and Brush on another Chicago remodel job with massive water infiltration and rotting plywood caused by missing and inadequate flashing details.

Per Kelly, he won't be using conventional house wrap again because Passive Purple provides perfect airsealed walls and eliminates the coverage and adhesions issues of house wrap. Passive Purple Brush fills all the seams and seals the nail holes too. With Passive Purple External, "Every square inch of the wall is hermetically sealed. This perfect fluid applied membrane, is the best material for behind any rain screen. That's a job that I can stand behind."

Find out how to work non-stop - 365-24-7 if necessary. Neither rain, nor wind, nor snow, nor dark of night can stop repairs if you install a 365 Construction Tent on your truss replacement or reinforcement project. What's the best way repair rotting trusses retrofitted with spray foam insulation? Under a 365 Construction Tent, of course.

Find out the advantages of using a 365 Tent from Bob Kelly who also invented WickRight Passive Ventilation:

✅ Save time and money - No more opening and closing a flat roof each day
✅ No more weather days - stay in control of your schedule
✅ Most tent have 9-feet of headroom at center - comfortable to work in
✅ Tent skins last 3-4 months, many have lasted longer
✅ Can easily withstand a 65 mph wind
✅ Sheds driving rain and heavy snow – no problem

Bob talked about why he developed the 365 tenting system, with a full house for Association of Licensed Architects (ALA) on 11/6 at the BrickLayers Training Center in Addison and again for IIBEC Chicago Chapter on 11/7. The full presentation also included a Custom Fabrication Case Studies and a Spray Foam Removal and Truss Reinforcement Case Study, as well as a discussion of the Building Science phenomena that makes parapet venting effective, including capillary action, stack effect, negative pressure, etc.

What's the best way to dry out a wet building with rotting trusses that was retrofitted with spray foam insulation?

Find out from Bob Kelly, inventor of WickRight Passive Ventilation and 365 Construction Tents. Bob's proven repair approach includes:

✅ Venting the Parapets
✅ Removing Spray Foam from the Roof Perimeter
✅ Reinforcing Rotted Trusses
✅ Venting the Roof field
✅ Venting the Perimeter along the Parapet

Bob presented the Greenview Spray Foam Case Study, to a full house for Association of Licensed Architects (ALA) on 11/6 at the BrickLayers Training Center in Addison and again for IIBEC Chicago Chapter on 11/7. The full presentation also included a Custom Fabrication Case Study for a Chicago area convent and a discussion of the Building Science phenomena that makes parapet venting effective, including capillary action, stack effect, negative pressure, etc.
