Why Composite Siding Is a Smarter Alternative to Wood?

Why Ventilation Matters in Composite Siding Installations?
A rainscreen system is a smart way to protect buildings from water infiltration. It includes an outer layer of siding or cladding, such as composite siding, installed over insulation, and a moisture barrier. Between these layers is a ventilated gap known as the “rainscreen,” which allows for both drainage and airflow.
Proper ventilation within this system is crucial. Without it, moisture can become trapped inside the wall cavity, leading to mold, rot, and long-term structural damage. The ventilation space helps release this moisture, keeping the building envelope dry and protected.
How Rainscreen Systems Enhance the Performance of Composite Siding?
Composite siding benefits greatly from a well-designed rainscreen system. By allowing air to circulate, the system helps regulate humidity and temperature levels within the walls. This not only protects the material but also contributes to better indoor air quality and a more comfortable living environment.
Ventilation also plays a key role in energy efficiency. Natural airflow within the rainscreen reduces the need for mechanical heating and cooling, cutting down on energy consumption and operating costs. It’s a smart choice for anyone looking to create a more sustainable, low-maintenance exterior.
Bottom Line: Long-Term Benefits of Ventilated Rainscreens
Ventilation is an essential element of any effective rainscreen system. It helps prevent moisture damage, improves temperature and humidity control, and boosts the energy efficiency of the building. When paired with durable, low-maintenance materials like Resysta’s composite siding, a properly ventilated rainscreen can significantly enhance the longevity and performance of your exterior walls.
