Siding is very much like your roofing system in that it also acts as your home’s first line of defense against the elements. While it is superior to exterior wall paint, picking the right siding system that can stand up to the weather conditions in your area is still imperative.
When you consider James Hardie® as your siding material, you have the opportunity to select the best siding that can perform well within your region’s climate with the help of the brand’s HardieZone®system. Read on as we discuss everything there is to know about it.
The HardieZone system utilizes a total of 8 climatic variables affecting the siding’s performance and 10 distinct climatic zones. James Hardie designs and manufactures its fiber cement siding products with these specific attributes in mind. Local siding contractors like us use this guide to determine the needs of our customers when it comes to siding.
The brand’s siding products are marketed as tough and resilient, and rightfully so. Thanks to the HardieZone system, they’re engineered to withstand everything Mother Nature could throw at it. Two product lines that are relevant to Americans include HZ5®and HZ10®.
Homes in regions with freezing conditions and extreme temperature changes benefit from the HZ5-type siding. Manufactured for higher performance, the surfaces of these products can resist moisture damage while retaining their beauty. The HZ10, meanwhile, fits well in areas that regularly experience high levels of humidity and hurricanes. This type of siding can stand up against the blistering heat, hurricane-force winds, and heavy downpours.
