A relative newcomer to the market, insulated vinyl siding has rigid foam laminated to the back of its panels. The backing increases the siding's R-value by as much as five times that of conventional backings, which manufacturers claim helps reduce homeowners' energy bills. As important, it blocks out noise and improves the home's appearance because the panels don't cup and won't dent, manufacturers claim. And like standard vinyl, insulated products don't require painting or staining and are low maintenance. These vinyl siding reviews will break down each of these important factors in order to help you inform a purchasing decision.
