Fasteners
Fastener choices
Use aluminum,galvanized steel,or other corrosion-resistant nails,staples,or screws when installing vinyl siding and soffit.
Aluminum trim pieces require aluminum or stainless steel fasteners..All fasteners must be able to penetrate not less than
3/4"into framing or furring-Review your local building codes for variations that may apply to specific geographic areas
Mails
Nail heads should be 5/16"minimum in diameter.Shank should be 1/87 in diameter.
i 1/8"min
5/io'min.
Screw fasteners
Screw fasteners can be used if the screws do not restrict the normal expansion and contraction movement of the vinyl
siding panel on the wall.Screws must be centered in the slot with a minimum 1132"space between the screw head and
the vinyl.Screws must be able to penetrate not less than 3/4"into framing or furring and should be:
• Size f#8,truss head or pan head.
•Corrosion-resistant,self-tapping sheet metal type.

General installation tips
Important in.stall.ation tips
' Before getting started,it is impartant.to review several rules of thumb for vinyl;siding application:
The following rules,which come up throughout this guide,are critical for proper vinyl siding installation:
The following are absolute"must-do's"for every siding installation:
nail driven do not
1: Installed panels must move freely from side to side:Don't naiLtoo tightly, too.tlghtly face nail
Always allow a minimum.of'1132"space between the back of the head and allowing for
expansion
the nailing hem.Space fasteners 12'-16"apart on center. /� fr
2...When!nstalling a siding panel,push up from thr;'hottnm'until the lock is fully
engaged with the:piece below it.Without stretching the panel;reach up and
fasten it into place. j f
3. When finishing the top.of`the wall perforate the cut edge using snap-lock
punch approximafely every 8",ensuring the"tabs"face outward.
4. Leave 1l4"clearance at all openings and accessory channel stops. Nailing guidelines
This allows for normal expansion and contraction.When installing in
temperatures below 40'F.,leave 3l8". r,.tMx rialts
5.. DO NOT CAULK the.space between the panels and the J.channel .outside --
and inside corners and any other trims.Do:not caulk_overlapping joints J.
between siding panels.
6. NEVER NAIL THROUGH THE FACE OF THE SIDING!Face nailing is i r
-driving a fastener through the panel outside of the center of a nail slot. 7
7. Center fasteners in nail slots.Fastening.at the end of the slot will cause iare. .it
permanent damage to the siding panel. If you need to lengthen the nail ' Ad
slot,.you can do so with a nail-slot punch..
8. Drive fasteners in straight Nailing at an anglewill distort!sid.ing panels and l
cause buckling.
9. Be careful rotto stretch panels.Apply slight upward pressure until th.e.lock
is fully engaged:then secure allowing panelsao:move freely without strain. Position of fasteners
10..Overlap horizontal siding panels 1".Excessive overlap can restrict free
movement and cause product failure. 'dnve.nail straight:
and level F i
1.1. Use fasteners long enough.to:penetrate a ininimum of 3l4"into the � >'
nailable base.
12.In residing,furring or removal of uneven,original sluing maybe-necessary. ,
f
13.In new construction,avoid the use of:green lumber as the underlayment.
Keep in mndthat siding can only be as straight and stable as what lies under it.
Materials Fasteners detail
Sheath inglBackerboard
Vinyl siding should be applied over a sheathing that provides.a smooth,flat surface.Consult local
building codes for sheathing requirements.Vinyl siding should never be applied directly to open studs without sheathing..
As an alternative,installation of specific types of contoured foam underlaym.ent for various styles.of vinyl siding are available.
Weather Resistant Barrier
siding should be installed over a.coniinuous weadler resisiaUt barrier to stop the intrusion of incidental water.
Consult-your local building code for requirements in.your area.
Flashing
Code-compliant flashing should be integrated with the weather resistant barrier and applied around•windows,doors,and other openings.
Flashing should also be,applied to inside and outside corners,and the intersection.of walls and roofing to prevent water infiltration.
AYCAN`"
Preparing to install
Preparing your house
Proper surface preparation.is one of the most important parts of your siding installation job.
All exteriorwall surfaces must be even,so that your new vinyl siding will be straight,and
look sharp.
f
1'<,Remove all shutters,downspouts and fixtures,On older homes,replace any rotten wood
and securely nail all loose boards,siding and wood trim.Tie back all shrubbery and
trees when plantings are close to the house.Remove any old caulking around windows
and'doors.
I I
2.Flashing.-Use aluminum trim coil or other material which will not absorb water.Apply
t f w t its r
flashing below,on the sides:of,and above,(in that order)any openings where water
might penetrate.This will help:in directing water away from the opening.
3.Installing:Furring:Furring or strapping must be applied to create an even base for
siding.Apply T'x 3"(minimum size)wood furring,not more than 16"on centers.Shim Furing for horizontal siding
low.spots to create an even surface.For horizontal vinyl siding,install furring vertically.
For vertical siding install furring:horizontally.Place furring along all sides of door and
window frames;corners,and:top and bottom of areas to be sided As an alternative,
solid sheathing can be applied directly over the old surface to create a smooth base,or
over furring to provide even support for the vinyl siding. ����
4.Housewrap:if required by building codes,apply a weather-resistant barrier over the � t
sheathing:We recommend an approved breatherAype code housewrap.
5.Insulation:The ideal time to increase the insulation value of the sidewall is before
installing siding.Simply install insuialirig sheaihing over existing,siding,over or behveen
the furring strips.
6.Laying the groundwork.:Determine a starting point for your siding—it should be the:
lowest.point.Measure at corners,and pull a chalk line across the wall to ensure a level Furing for vertical siding
starting position.Plumb comers;and:shim:if necessary,.to.ensure they are vertical.
Preparing the Walls
Important notes:Weather Resistant Barrier
Vinyl siding:has always been designed as an exterior cladding,not a weather resistant barrier.
Vinyl-siding is designed to.allowthe material underneath itto breathe;therefore,it is not a.watertight covering:Because of
its design and-applicationJt provides a aupplemor al rain screenthat enhances the weather resistant barrier system-by reducing the
amount of water that reaches the underlying weather resistant:barrier.
Preparing the Walls
A flat,:level wall surface is necessary for proper installation of:vinyl siding.
Install flashing before starting to apply the siding.-Unless already installed,a weather resistant barrier should be applied to,the house
prior to,installing vinyl siding.Always consult local building code for requirements in your area.
New Construction
•.Tip:To reduce the possibility of the floor-plate compression,drywall,roofing,.or..otherheavy-building.materials should be installed
Or stored tfroughoutthe house prior to the installation of vinyl siding..Floor-plate compression can result in buckled siding atthe
intersection of the floovand the wall.
`Residing
•:Nail down loose.boards of existing"siding,and replace any rotten.ones.Do notinstall vinyl siding over rotting wood.
•Scrape off loose caulk and re-caulk around windows,doors,and other areas to protect from moisture penetration.
•Remove.all protrusions such as gutters,downspouts,and light fixtures.
.Check all walls for evenness.and install furring strips where necessary.When installing furring strips,please take appropriate
measures to establish a smooth and continuous surface. _
Note:In cases where-the lower portion of a horizontal siding panel must be trimmed so that it may be
. installed.over steps,porches,etc.,.the panel should bebuilt.out("furred')forproper angle and rigidity.
Undersill trim can be usedto seal the-cut edge of the panel and.then secured to the wall.

al Installing accessories
Before the siding itself can be hung,a number of accessories must be installed first,including starter strips,
corner posts,window flashing,trim;and J-channels over the roof lines.
Starter trim
•In order for the siding to be installed properly in a level fashion;_the starter strip at the bottom
of the wall must be level.
•Determine the lowest point of the wall that will be sided;from that point,measure up 1/4"Tess 1 m `
than the.width of the starter trim and partially drive a nail at one corner.
e Attach a chalkfine;go to the next corner and pall the line taut.
•'Make sure the line is level by using a line level or a 4'level. - 1
•Snap the chalkfine and repeat.the procedure around the-entire house. a i
•Optional method to determining the position of the starter trim.in clew construction and some Starter trim installation
residing applications:Measure down from the soffit atone corner ottee house to the top of �,�.a���rt,� ";3aF:a€rier
the.foundation and subtract 114"less than the width of the starter strip.Make a mark on the §._ r
wall.and.record the measurement.Transfer the measurement to the other corner of the wall. ,
Snap.a chalk line in between the corners at the marks.Repeat the procedure around the
entire house.
•Using the chalkline as.a guide,install the top edge of the starter strip along:the bottom of the
chalkfine,nailing at 10"intervals..Allow space.for the.corner posts.,J-channels,etc. £ `= " # '

weep.holes no more than 24"apart. ow dqe..
Outside and inside corner pasts
•Awater resistant material should be used to flash the inside and outside corners a
minimum:of 10"on each side before installation ofithe corner..
•Place the corner post in position,allowing a 1/4"gap between the top of the post and S NMn I I

these nails-,
•The balance of the nailing should be in the center of the slot,8"to 12"apart,again
leaving 1132"between the nail head and the corner post:This allows for the expansion
and contraction to occur at the bottom. Starter trim and outside comer post
•The corner Post should extend 314"below-the starter strip.Make sure the posts are

The beauty of:vinyl.siding is maintained with little effort.
Wnyl siding, cleanup
Although vinyl siding will get dirty,like anything exposed to,the-atmosphere,a heavy rain will do wonders in cleaning it.
Or,it's possible to wash it down with an ordinary garden hose.
If.neither rain nor hosing does a satisfactory job,follow these simple instructions:
1.Use an ordinary,long-handled car washing brush.This brush-has soft bristles,and the handle fastens onto the.end
of the hose.It allows the siding to be washed'i st like a"car.•. .
Avoid using.stiff bristle brushesor abrasive cleaners,which,may change the gloss of the.cleaned area and cause
the siding:to look spotty.
2.To remove soot and grime found inindustrial areas;wipe down the-siding with a solution made up of the following:.
a. 113 cup powdered detergent(e.g.,Tide k7,or equivalent powder detergent)*
b..-M.:cup.powdered household cleaner(e.g.,Spic&Span(D.,orequivalent)i
c. 1 gallon.water.
3.If mildew is a problem,use-the solution previously mentioned,but;add 1 quart liquid laundry bleach.
4.When washing down your entire house,.start at.the bottom and.work up to:the.to,p in order to.prevent streaking.
For stubborn stains,refer to the Stain Cleaners below.
