There is disclosed a furring strip system wherein furring strips are pre-attached to at least one side of a water resistive barrier (WRB-sometimes referred to as "Housewrap") to promote drainage and drying between the exterior siding or cladding and the underlying wall construction. The furring strips themselves may be ventilated vertically through a series of abutting internal cavities extending across its width or vertical ridges. The furring strip system is installed on a structure simultaneously with the WRB, and before the exterior cladding or siding is installed to enhance drainage and drying of that area thus helping to eliminate the problems associated with water accumulation, such as deterioration of the underlying components, microbial growth, mold and related problems to the structure and its inhabitants.
