Siding Materials
Insulated Siding for a Quieter, More Comfortable Home
Vinyl siding with a contoured foam backer adds rigidity, reduces drafts and helps your walls perform better year-round.
Insulated Siding by RemodelPro
Insulated siding pairs a vinyl panel with a layer of rigid foam shaped to fit snugly behind it. That foam fills the hollow space behind standard vinyl, making each panel stiffer, straighter and more resistant to dents, while adding a continuous layer of insulation over your wall studs.
Wood studs conduct heat much more readily than the insulation between them, a problem known as thermal bridging. A continuous layer of foam outside the studs helps reduce that heat loss, which can make rooms more comfortable and help your heating and cooling system work less hard.
Insulated siding also tends to look better on the wall. The foam backer keeps panels flat and true, so long walls show fewer waves, and the extra mass dampens outside noise a bit. It's a popular upgrade for homeowners who like vinyl's easy maintenance but want a more substantial feel.
Benefits of insulated siding
Continuous insulation
Foam covers the studs as well as the cavities, reducing heat flow through the framing.
Straighter walls
The rigid backer keeps panels flat and resists the waviness thin vinyl can show.
Better impact resistance
Backed panels resist dents and cracks from hail, balls and bumps.
Reduced outside noise
The extra layer helps soften traffic and neighborhood sound.
Same easy maintenance
Like standard vinyl, it never needs painting.
Fewer drafts
Combined with a sealed weather barrier, it helps cut air leakage through walls.
Getting the most out of insulated siding
Siding is only one part of your home's thermal envelope. The biggest comfort gains come from treating the home as a system: sealing air leaks, insulating the attic, and upgrading windows where needed. We can look at the whole picture at your free estimate and recommend where your budget will make the biggest difference.
- Pair siding with a properly sealed weather barrier
- Check attic insulation and ventilation at the same time
- Seal gaps around penetrations such as vents, pipes and outlets
- Consider window replacement if existing windows are drafty
