Jordan writes from somewhere in Canada: “I am looking at renovating the exterior of my home and upgrading the insulation while I have the siding off. From looking through the website I believe that adding your CodeBord looks to be my best bang for my buck. I am just wondering what the proper installation method is for installing vinyl siding over top of it. Does the added distance from the plywood reduce the integrity of the siding?” Answer: The CodeBord® insulation will provide a good solid surface under the siding. Be sure to nail through the foam into the wood studs with a minimum of 1″ penetration into the wood.
