The process of removing old siding and replacing with new is the perfect time to add exterior continuous insulation and air seal. One inch or more of rigid insulative sheathing, taped and detailed to act as the air and water barrier. This typically increases occupant comfort (temperature and noise reduced, saves on utility bills, improves thermal & moisture performance of walls, allows for the use of off-the-shelf trim and moldings and maintains most siding warranties.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Department of Energy has funded Pacific Northwest National Laboratory to study a handful of promising retrofits that can boost the thermal and air performance of building envelopes to meet DOE’s ambitious carbon and energy goals for existing housing stock in the United States. Major improvements must be made to the existing housing stock in order for the US to meet challenging carbon and energy targets. But this upgrade is just good common sense! Learn how to determine if you should offer AIRS to your customers and also see if they might qualify for a\u00a0nearly free ($5000 value) AIRS energy upgrade in exchange for sharing research data!<\/a><\/p>\n
