Does Getting New Siding Improve Home Energy Efficiency?

New siding offers a simple and effective way to spruce up your home’s look and ensure its greater weather resistance. But can this upgrade also make a positive difference to your home’s energy efficiency? The trusted replacement windows and siding company in the area, Homecraft® Inc., offers a quick answer:

Yes, It Can

Delaware is known for its moderate climate, but there are still instances where it gets excessively hot or cold. An old and failing siding won’t provide much barrier against extreme outdoor temperatures. It would be a good idea to invest in a newer, better siding so that you can keep your home’s indoor environment consistent and comfortable. Your new siding basically serves as extra insulation that heads off unwanted outdoor heat or cold. This, in turn, keeps your HVAC system from working overtime and consuming too much energy. The end result? Living spaces that remain thermally comfortable, but without the high energy costs.

Choosing the Right Siding for Your Home

Just how effectively your new siding is at resisting outdoor temperatures will depend on its quality. Homecraft® Inc. is not just your trusted source of high-quality vinyl windows; we also offer exceptional siding options from one of the industry’s largest names, ProVia®. Check out our ProVia CedarMAX™ insulated vinyl siding, which comes with an integrated layer of foam insulation. This allows it to provide superior thermal protection that far outshines the performance of thinly applied sheets that are common in other siding installations.

Our ProVia CedarMAX™ insulated vinyl siding has passed the requirements of the Vinyl Siding Institute, earning its ASTM D7793 certification. This siding also comes with Tri-Pigment Reflective Technology that helps prevent unwanted solar heat gain in your home. Thanks to a Weather Barrier Shield with SPX-2000 UV Blocker and Color-Keeper™ Anti-Fade Protection, our ProVia CedarMAX™ insulated vinyl siding is also guaranteed to remain lovely and vibrant no matter what the weather throws at it.
