Unlike the majority of exterior vinyl siding products "Crane board " has a "Energy Star Seal of approval . The current panels have an R -Value from 3to 3.5 . The current panels also have a radiant barrier to help the dwelling stay energy efficient in summer months ;other exterior sidings products lack this feature . Craneboard Solid Core high performance siding has an exclusive on the radiant barrier foam for the next 2years. Craneboard will not conduct heat and cold like Hardie Plank or other fiber cement exterior products. 2. Crane High Performance siding is a rigid product unlike other exterior vinyl siding products . The foam backing is laminated to the panels at the factory with a patented application process which warrants it against delaminating and therefore it will not oil can on the exterior wall of a building like lesser quality materials tend to do . If delaminating should occur it is covered by a manufacturers warranty that provides material and pays the labor to correct the problem unlike most vinyl products . 3. Craneboard High Performance siding has an impact warranty that will provide material and pay labor to replace any siding that is damaged by Impact regardless of how the panel was damaged. NO OTHER EXTERIOR SIDING PRODUCT HAS SUCH A WARRANTY. 4. Craneboard High Performance siding has a full doubled nailing hem and is made to withstand winds of over 100 mph. . 5. Craneboard High Performance siding has a tongue and groove application system which alleviates air infiltration unlike other exterior building products making it more energy efficient . 6. Craneboard High Performance siding has a drainage plane built into the foam backing which keeps moisture off the exterior sheathing and is warranted against toxic mold . This feature is patented and only available on Craneboard High Performance siding products . Hardie- plank and other fiber cement proucts wick moisture and often times trap moisture between House wrap and exterior sheathing causing toxic mold which is expensive to remediate . Special house wrap is needed to reduce this issue and house wrap must be properly sealed to preserve the integrity of the envelope. 7. Due to the manner in which fiber cement exterior products are installed, by blind nailing, these products serpentine on exterior walls of construction especially noticeable on gable walls which is not aesthetically appealing. Craneboard High Performance siding products can be floated when nailed ,1 straightening the appearance of waving exterior walls and greatly improving the overall looks of the building . 8. Exterior siding products like cedar and fiber cement require maintenance in 5 to 10 years . Cedar products tend to shrink once installed leaving unsightly gaps and separating the siding from the walls at the seams . Most Cedar products have a number of knots that tend to pop out and cause issues in 3 to 5 years . The cost to maintain cedar products is high as it soaks stain and require multiple coats . Fiber - cement products require paint will require painting as well ,although not as often . Fiber - cement products are sensitive to moisture and if not properly sealed at installation will wick water from the back side turning the product black and it will begin to deteriorate and fall apart . Craneboard High Performance siding products will retain its appearance on the wall and require minimal maintenance indefinitely . It is warranted against impact damage, fading ,oil canning and delaminating. It comes in wood grain finish less shiny than most pre- painted fiber cement products. 9. Craneboard High Performance siding products are environmentally friendly unlike fiber cement products that contain silica which is in the asbestos family . Breathing the dust when cutting material will cause lung damage. 10. In summary, Craneboard High Performance siding products will achieve the short and long term goals of the American Legion post by reducing noise from both train tracks and highway, reducing energy bills and reducing future maintenance cost . It can preserve the overall aesthetics of the existing building with the proposed 6" profile which is available in 16' lengths . There will be few if any seams on the front and rear elevations due to current window and door locations . If necessary, I can utilize pre - jayed lineals around windows and as frieze boards to reduce j- channel . We have installed most exterior siding products over the last 20 years and have found Craneboard High Performance Exterior Portfolio products to be comparable if not superior in long term performance and appearance to other exterior siding materials .
