Iron Woods® Vanish™ Rainscreen Siding
A New Elegance to the Art of Building Envelope Design
The perfect complement to the natural beauty of our Iron Woods® premium grade exterior building products and our existing line of siding profiles and standard rain screen offerings, the Vanish Rain™ Screen brings a newfound elegance to the art of both commercial and residential building envelope design and construction. Traditional horizontal rain screen siding has long been recommended for improved air flow allowing air to move vertically behind the siding and moisture to evaporate which significantly improves the service life of a building envelope and coating performance.
The Vanish™ Rain Screen System represents a significant leap forward in rain screen design and application. Our unique Vanish™ Rain Screen clips and Vanish™ siding profile provide not only both horizontal and vertical ventilation but also eliminate the appearance of fasteners from the building aesthetic which represents a significant improvement over traditional “on batten/face fastened” rain screen applications.
Stands Up to High Winds
Air flow improves pressure equalization in high wind environments.
Reduces Moisture
Vertical and horizontal air flow reduces moisture from the envelope and connection points while providing superior pressure equalization.
Compliant
Rainscreen siding is building and environmental code compliant.
Rustic Knotty Alder Premium Rough Lumber
$
Also known as premium frame alder direct from the Pacific Northwest. Because of its grain pattern, alder is frequently used as a substitute for walnut and cherry. Knotty alder cabinets and mouldings are very popular in high-end homes as well as rustic cabins. Alder machines well and is excellent for turning. It nails, screws and glues well, and can be sanded, painted, or stained to a good finish.
When stained, it blends with walnut, mahogany or cherry. It dries easily with little degrade and has good dimensional stability after drying. Alder, a relative of birch, is almost white when freshly cut but quickly changes on exposure to air, becoming light brown with a yellow or reddish tinge. Heartwood is formed only in trees of advanced age and there is no visible boundary between sap and heartwood. The wood is fairly straight-grained with a uniform texture.

In rustic or knotty grades of lumber, there will be a percentage of degrade during the milling process. Some knots may shake lose and/or fall out during the milling process. Mason’s Mill is not liable for these defects in moldings produced from knotty grades of lumber.
