What Type of Siding is the Most Energy Efficient?
In addition to improving curb appeal and protecting against the elements, your home’s siding should provide improved energy efficiency.
If you’re interested in having new siding installed on your home and researching the different products available, you’re probably reading all types of performance claims about different types of siding. To help you filter through the noise, we’re going to compare the most energy-efficient types of siding on the market:
- Wood: Wood is a natural insulator and therefore is a popular option for homeowners who want their siding to help with thermal performance. However, wood siding requires the most maintenance of all siding types and is especially susceptible to moisture damage.
- Composite: Engineered wood siding products offer the look and feel of natural wood but don’t come with maintenance headaches. Depending on the composite siding product you choose, you may need to repaint it every few years.
- Insulated Vinyl: Vinyl siding is the most popular option on the market and for good reason. Easy to maintain and affordable, vinyl siding is remarkably versatile and available in a wide array of styles and colors. And when it’s insulated, it does an outstanding job of protecting your home against heat transfer. This can lighten the workload for your home’s HVAC system and result in lower monthly energy costs.
