Publication number: 20120031012Abstract: A mounting bracket assembly includes a base member for attachment to substructure of an exterior wall at least in part beneath siding. A trim member is configured to be coupled to the base member to conceal ends of the siding. A first series of baffles extends transversely from the base member. A first drip ledge is spaced from the first series of baffles to define a cavity between the first drip ledge and the first series of baffles. The first drip ledge extends transversely from the base member for disposition below the first series of baffles when the base member is mounted to the substructure to divert the water from the cavity to an exterior of the siding. The drip ledge has an end dam at first and second ends of the drip ledge for diverting water from the cavity onto the first drip ledge.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2011Publication date: February 9, 2012Applicant: TAPCO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventor: David James Bonshor
