Quality
Vinyl Siding At Your Fingertips
You've made the decision:
it's got to be
vinyl siding. The
maintenance-free beauty of this product made it an easy
choice, but how do you choose among all the different brands
on the market? You're a conscientious homeowner who wants to
make a sound investment, but let's face it. You're no vinyl
siding expert.
Don't panic. The Vinyl Siding Institute (VSI) has rescued
thousands of homeowners just like you. VSI offers
consumer-friendly resources to help you find vinyl siding
products that have been independently inspected for quality
and performance through the VSI Vinyl Siding Certification
Program.
With an easy-to-use Web site and a toll-free phone number,
VSI helps consumers across the United States and Canada find
quality products for their new homes and for re-siding
projects. With information about styles, brands and
manufacturers, VSI's database features an elite list of
products that have passed the rigorous tests of the industry
standard for quality.
The VSI Vinyl Siding Certification Program applies this
standard by putting siding products under the microscope of
Architectural Testing, Inc., an independent third-party
laboratory. Certification and inclusion on VSI's official
list requires products to meet recognized standards in
quality areas such as durability, wind resistance and
weather resistance. Certification also means that vinyl
siding plants undergo periodic, unannounced inspections to
ensure the consistent quality of products on the list.
Although savvy siding contractors know to look for VSI's
official certification logo on vinyl siding boxes, VSI's Web
site and telephone hotline are simple ways for anyone to
locate specific quality products in the style they desire.
According to Jery Y. Huntley, VSI's executive director, more
and more consumers are realizing that VSI offers credible
and reliable information about vinyl siding. With more than
1,500 people visiting the Web site or calling VSI each
month, VSI has ensured that quality vinyl siding is just a
mouse click or a phone call away.
