I may have asked this question before: I have two open outdoor wood decks – one directly above the other. The upper drips onto the lower in the winter from melting snow or rain. Does anyone have some nifty ideas as to just how to limit this with out building a complete layer hanging under the upper deck?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
To prevent moisture buildup and improve performance, install a continuous air barrier—such as drywall or specialized membranes—under tongue-and-groove boards or other interior wall paneling.

I like the appearance of http://www.underdeck.com I have yet to use it but it is a very clean looking installation.

I have remedied this for two of my customers by using clear corrugated plastic roofing with a gutter in front of that. Works great and is inexpensive. Doesn't really look all that bad either.
Be well
