Hi everyone, I'm getting ready to put LP SmartSide on my new ICF home near Annapolis, Maryland. What product would you recommend for a rain screen under the siding? The walls are Logix ICF and the gables are 2x6 with OSB + Tyvek. I've read some old threads on here, but maybe some things have changed? I've read this.. http://www.greenbuildingadvisor.com/blogs/dept/qa-spotlight/what-s-best-approach-rainscreen ......... Someone recommended this to me:..... https://www.buyobdyke.com/rainscreens/?gclid=CKWMhse_xcwCFQhkhgod6tUKKA...any thoughts or guidance would be appreciated. THANKS!

I should note that the siding is 8" Lap for the bottom 10 feet or so, then transitioning to Board and Batten. The board will be LP Panel.
