Evening,
We completed a 21 by 21 addition to our house and used Huber Zip System for both walls and roof. Curious if anyone has had experience with the wall system and cedar/pine shakes. Most everything I read indicates that we should use 15 or 30 pound roof felt under the shakes; however, the Huber system takes the place of house wrap and roof felt. Inclined to install shakes directly on the zip wall but thought it better to check with the group for any recommendations.

Better check local codes as well.
Use the 15# felt...Thats what Huber Tech. told me 1 1/2 years ago. call their 800 number to verify ... but i'm sure nothing has changed.

the post an beam company I am working with just uses cedar breather then the shakes.

It's the feeling of falling further behind."
