PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Aegis Living develops and manages boutique retirement communities which provide a premium living experience for residents on the west coast. Aegis Lake Union will provide residents with incredible lake and city views while protecting them from the elements outside. WrapShield SA will benefit Aegis and their residents in 3 important ways.
The first is as an air barrier which limits unconditioned air from moving through the building. WrapShield SA, in conjunction with exterior wall insulation and triple pane windows, will help the ownership achieve a 50% or better energy cost reduction.
The second is as a sound barrier. WrapShield SA will help to reduce the noise from the freeway just 100 feet to the east and from float plane take offs and landings, just 3 blocks to the west.
And thirdly and perhaps the most importantly, WrapShield SA, along with VaproLiquiFlash around the window openings, helps to protect the delicate building envelope by reducing air and moisture intrusion, mold, mildew and rot in the humid climate of Washington.
Aegis lake Union is slated for completion in the Spring of 2022.
