What is the the difference between steel and vinyl siding?
As you know, we sell steel siding and Polar Wall® insulated vinyl siding, both of which are vastly superior to standard vinyl siding. The steel is rigid and will not sag, crack, or rattle in the wind like vinyl. Steel siding is highly impact resistant. If you hit it hard enough, it may dent, but it is almost unbreakable, and of course it will not burn or melt. All vinyl siding, even our Polar Wall, will melt next to a heat source like a barbeque grill or trash fire. However, Polar Wall insulated vinyl siding is much better than standard vinyl siding in other respects. It has an insulating foam board laminated to the panel that makes it much more rigid and prevents wind from getting behind it. In fact, it is rated for winds over 200mph. Return to top.
