Vinyl siding has been a staple of housing exteriors for more than twenty years now. Its attractiveness as a choice has only continued to increase through the years. Vinyl, which is made of PVC, has come a long way due to advances in the science of manufacturing it. Some of the initial difficulties that were encountered by homeowners who purchased vinyl siding have now been overcome or at least significantly reduced.
Early vinyl sidings faded away with the passage of time. This type of siding comes with UV protection which makes its color much longer lasting, even under prolonged sun exposure. Then while the vinyl did not rust or rot, it was not very impact resistant. Flying objects of all sorts—balls and debris during storms—was known to cause significant damage to it. New insulated vinyl siding is up to 300% stronger. Some brands boast that their siding is more rigid, and so feels more like wood, which also means that it is less likely to buckle when there’s a slight irregularity in the walls of the house.
Insulated vinyl siding’s greatest advantage is in its energy efficiency. Insulation is rated on an R scale. Old vinyl siding was only 1 on the scale—not very good. New, insulated, siding is usually at least a 4 and can be as high as a 5.3. This is guaranteed to help reduce your energy bills. It also will make your house quieter, as insulation also blocks noise. Insulated vinyl siding does cost more than traditional, but it is still not expensive when compared to other kinds of siding. That is the final improvement in vinyl manufacturing; it is a much cheaper process than it used to be. Whereas once vinyl siding was quite expensive, now it is by far the most cost efficient kind available on the market. Its installation cost can be high, but you can even buy brands now which you can install yourself. When you add its other advantages—that it does not require maintenance or repainting, and very often comes with a life-time guarantee, vinyl siding continues to be an extremely attractive option for any homeowner.
