Any thoughts on this from you siders? When I converted this house from rotten Masonite 4x9' panels to Hardiplank, I tore out the 7/16" aluminum-faced foam board and replaced it with OSB (then Tyvek). The OSB gave a great nailing surface for the Hardiplank. I am sure we'd have had a bad time with the foam causing unevenness if we'd left the foam in. I think the foam was one reason the Masonite (and many window sills) rotted so fast... it won't let the house "breath", so the walls won't dry well in this climate. |
