What is Insulated ENERGY STAR Vinyl siding?
It is the most popular siding of choice. It is available as traditional siding and as thermo core insulated vinyl siding. The solid thermo core Energy Star rated product is eligible for Energy Star tax credit, up to a maximum of $500. Typical energy savings are about 20%-30%. Vinyl siding is also usually less expensive than most grades of wood siding. It retains its original look after many years and never requires painting. Today, the vinyl siding is manufactured in a wide variety of light and dark colors. High quality, thick vinyl siding with stiffeners rarely warps or breaks down, and carries a lifetime warranty. In general, the thicker the vinyl siding and the more stiffeners that reinforce it, the fewer problems the siding will develop down the road. Periodic pressure washing returns vinyl to its original appearance.
