Nest PreferredCertainTeed
CertainTeed CedarBoards Insulated Siding
Foam-backed insulated vinyl siding with R-3.5 insulation value and 210 mph wind rating.
R-3.5 Insulation: Contoured EPS foam backing eliminates thermal bridging and convective loops behind the siding.
210 mph Wind Rating: Foam-backed rigidity eliminates panel flex, nearly doubling the wind resistance of standard vinyl.
Impact Absorption: Foam core absorbs impacts from hail, baseballs, and debris that would dent non-insulated panels.
Noise Reduction: Foam backing dampens exterior sound - noticeable reduction in traffic and neighbor noise.
No Thermal Distortion: Insulated panels don't warp or sag in extreme heat like non-backed vinyl can.
Lifespan: 25-35 years
Warranty: Lifetime Limited
Price: $10,000 - $20,000
