SOLID CORE SIDING™ offers a complete, exterior siding system,
combining superior energy efficiency with durable, long-lasting beauty.
It's tough Vycralar™ surface is fused with SOLID CORE backing, creating
a product with unmatched bridge strength, superior R-values and air infiltration
ratings, and guaranteed impact resistance. These exceptional qualities
allow SOLID CORE SIDING™ to be backed by the industry's only No-Nonsense
Lifetime Warranty.
The manufacturer warrants to the homeowner that SOLID CORE SIDING™
will not peel, blister, pit, flake or corrode as a result of manufacturing
defects or as a result of exposure to ocean air (salt spray).
Unlike conventional veneer type sidings, which are warranted only to the
initial homeowner, SOLID CORE SIDING™ is warranted for the lifetime of
the house - the period for which the structural integrity of the house remains
intact.
In order to transfer this warranty, the new homeowner can simply return the
enclosed transfer card within 30 days of the transfer of ownership of the house.
Incase of "commercial" installations - such as apartment buildings,
condominiums, etc. - the period of coverage shall be 60 years.
ADDITIONAL WARRANTY COVERAGE
- UNIFORM WEATHERING
The manufacture warrants that SOLID CORE SIDING™ will weather in a
uniform manner and that weathering changes will not occur on a specific wall
exposure in a manner that varies from panel to panel (checkerboard effect).
- DEGREE OF WEATHERING
For a period of 10 years after the date of the original installation, SOLID
CORE colors will not lighten in excess of 5 Hunter Units
- HIGH IMPACT RESISTANCE
Our tests have demonstrated that SOLID CORE SIDING™ is 300% more
resistant to cracking than conventional hollow-backed sidings. Should
SOLID CORE SIDING™ panels crack for reasons associated with normal
home ownership (for example, hail damage) the manufacturer will replace all
damaged panels including the cost of material and labor which exceeds the
amount covered by the homeowners insurance policy. Proof of submission
and resolution from the homeowner's insurance company (and promptly
following the warrant procedure below) are required before final settlement
of the claim.
- COVERAGE AGAINST CHALKING
Our paste panels are produced with an exclusive Vycralar™ formulation
featuring treated TiO2 and are warranted not to chalk in an
offensive manner that could cause discoloration of trim areas.
- COVERAGE AGAINST SEPARATION
Fusion technology ensures the structural integrity of our SOLID CORE
SIDING™ panels, therefore, our panels will not separate so as to
negatively affect the performance of the product.
- WIND RESISTANCE
Our tests have demonstrated that SOLID CORE SIDING™ will withstand
the equivalent of 130 mph wind loads, without damage, when installed
correctly. If winds up to 130 mph cause a panel to separate from the
structure, the manufacturer will replace any damaged panels - including the
cost of material and labor.
- PRODUCT INTEGRITY
Our SOLID CORE SIDING™ has been tested extensively by us in freeze,
thaw and heat cycles to ensure proper panel performance. therefore,
when properly installed, should SOLID CORE SIDING™ panels buckle
for reasons associated with expansion or contraction, the manufacturer will
replace the damaged product - including the cost of material and labor.
- MOISTURE PROTECTION
All expanded polystyrene material used in the production of SOLID CORE
SIDING™ has been tested to a Perm Rating of 5. The product will
breathe and is warranted not to retain moisture.
