Abstract
A method for using a support backer board system and siding. The support backer board system comprises at least a first layer. The first layer is made from a material selected from the group consisting of alkenyl aromatic polymers, polyolefins, polyethylene terephthalate, polyesters, and combinations thereof. The board system is thermoformed into a desired shape with the desired shape being generally contour to the selected siding. The siding is attached to the board system so as to provide support thereto. In one process, the siding may be vinyl.
Claims28
A method for using a support backer board system and siding, said support backer board system comprising at least a first layer, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing siding;
- extruding a first layer to form said board system, said first layer being made from a material selected from the group consisting of alkenyl aromatic polymers, polyolefins, polyethylene terephthalate, polyesters, and combinations thereof;
- thermoforming said board system into a desired shape, said desired shape being generally contour to said sliding, said board system being adapted unfold at hinges therein;
- and
- attaching said siding to said board system so as to provide support to said siding.
A method for using a support backer board system and siding, said support backer board system comprising at least three layers, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing siding;
- extruding a first layer to form said board system, said first layer being made from at least one foamed alkenyl aromatic polymer;
- adding a second layer and a third layer to said first layer so as to form said board system, said second layer and third layers being film layers made from independently selected resin;
- said first layer being located in between the second layer and said third layer;
- thermoforming said board system into a desired shape, said desired shape being generally contour to said siding;
- and
- attaching said siding to said board system so as to provide support to said siding.
