2 Ways Your Siding Affects Your Home’s Interior

Siding helps enhance the look of your home, allowing a greater impression from the curb. But the siding’s purpose goes beyond sprucing up your home exterior. A trusted installer of quality siding and replacement windows, Homecraft® Inc., shares how your siding can affect the interior of your home.

1. Improves energy efficiency. Because your siding serves as a physical barrier against the harsh elements, it’s also effective at preventing heat or drafts from entering into your home. This means that indoor temperatures will remain consistent and comfortable regardless of the season — no cold or hot spots that cause your HVAC system to work overtime and consume more energy.

Just how effective your siding is at preventing heat and cold transfer is dependent on its material and quality. Homecraft Inc. can help you pick your best choices. We’re not just your go-to company for top-tier vinyl windows — we also offer CedarMAX™ insulated vinyl siding from trusted industry name ProVia®. This siding comes with an integrated layer of foam insulation that provides superior thermal protection, far exceeding the performance of thinly applied foam sheets used in standard vinyl siding. With our exceptional option, keeping energy costs to a minimum via your siding becomes worry-free.

2. Protects against moisture. Your siding helps keep wind-driven rain and snowstorms at bay, ensuring the moisture they generate doesn’t end up infiltrating your home. Excess indoor moisture, as you know, encourages the formation of mold and rot. Their presence not only weakens your interior walls and ceilings but also compromises indoor air quality. But when you have expertly installed siding in place, you’ll be able to keep indoor moisture levels down, ensuring that your home’s foundation will remain safe and intact.
