Sun City Anthem
Weep Screeds?
After reading about the legal
confrontation between Del Webb and some homeowners at Sun City Summerlin, you have
asked many times whether our homes have the weep screeds that were
allegedly missing in Summerlin.
Do our homes in Sun City Anthem
have weep screeds? Allison Copening, Director of Public Affairs,
Pulte Home/Del Webb states in a message to Favil West, SCA Board
Member,
"You can also encourage
residents to attend the Customer Relations Maintenance Seminar
on May 30 at 9:00am at the Anthem Center. The topic that day
does not deal with weep screeds but our folks will be able to
answer questions. All of the homes in Sun City Anthem have weep
screeds."
Pay for an inspection? Nah! Do It
Yourself! Simply look around the foundation of your home for the
edge of the weep screed. Only the edge of the metal will be visible.
What does one look like? The
University of California Santa Cruz has posted diagram of a
typical installation on their web site. It is a pdf. Click
