Heard of R-Value, but not exactly sure what that means? It measures the energy efficiency of building materials and appliances. If you have a higher R-Value, that means you have greater energy efficiency. Some forms of siding score as high as 3 to 5, but most forms of siding score below 1.
Insulated vinyl, steel and aluminum siding can be more five times as energy efficient as common types of siding. Vinyl, steel and aluminum siding are durable and require little maintenance. You can expect insulated vinyl siding to last thirty years or longer.
If you choose to install energy efficient siding to help reduce your home’s overall energy usage and lower your energy bills, it is possible to recover the cost of energy efficient improvements in only a few years.
