It's Redwood on the Outside

Visual beauty is not the only quality of redwood siding. Above average insulation against heat and cold is provided by redwood's low density, meaning that it has a high percentage of dead air spaces in ratio to wood substance.

In insulating value, a redwood board one inch thick is equal to 6 inches of brick, 9 inches of cement block, l4 inches of concrete or stucco and over 1,700 inches of aluminum. The insulation protection provided by redwood can keep a home comfortable year around with a minimum expense for heating or air conditioning.

High stability makes redwood a durable all weather siding, capable of lying straight and flat for the life of the structure with little or no checking or other weather damage. Durability also is an important characteristic oi redwood. It is resistant to decay and insects.

Redwood may be stained, painted or left to weather to a mellow shade. Bevel, channel shiplap, V shiplap, board and batten, and tongue and groove patterns make redwood adaptable to every style of architecture and setting. Rustic siding textured with knots and streaks of heartwood and sapwood also is available in a varietv of Datterns.

NATURAL, yet elegant. redwood siding is perfect for sophisticated architecture as well as rustic country cottages. The wood provides natural durability and resistance lo insects and decay in addition to a warm, attractive aooearance.
