Siding Insulation Warranty
Fullback® Siding Insulation Double Lifetime Warranty
We stand behind all of our Fullback® siding insulation products with the strongest warranty in the industry, so you can rest assured that the benefits you enjoy today will continue for the life of your home.
This warranty covers the Fullback® siding insulation underlayment for as long as you or the subsequent owner lives in or owns the home or building where Fullback® siding insulation is installed.
Our warranty is a down-to-earth demonstration of the confidence we have in our product, and what we will do to make it right in the unlikely event that something would ever go wrong.
What This Siding Insulation Warranty Promises You
Fullback® siding insulation will maintain its energy-saving benefits
We warrant that the actual thermal resistance of the Fullback® siding insulation will not vary by more than 5% from the system "R"-value printed on the label. "R"-value refers to the resistance to heat flow. The higher the "R"-value, the greater the insulation power of the underlayment.
Fullback® siding insulation will allow your home to "breathe"
We warrant that the permeability of the Fullback® siding insulation panel will maintain a 5.0 perm rating through the life of the product. (Perm rating refers to resistance to the movement of water vapor. The lower the perm rating, the higher the resistance to vapor transmission. Any product with a perm rating of 1 or less is a vapor barrier.)
Fullback® siding insulation will maintain its structural integrity
We warrant that the structural integrity of the Fullback® siding insulation will remain intact for the lifetime of your home. Because it does not absorb or retain water, it is not affected by freeze-thaw cycles and will not deteriorate or break down over time.
Fullback® siding insulation will not absorb more than 1% water or contribute to moisture damage
Fullback® siding insulation products have been installed on homes since 1992 and have undergone extensive testing. Both real-life experience and third-party testing have conclusively demonstrated that when properly installed, Fullback® siding insulation will not absorb more than 1% moisture OR CONTRIBUTE TO WATER OR MOISTURE DAMAGE IN ANY WAY.
In the event that your Fullback® siding insulation is proven to have not performed in accordance with this warranty, and all appropriate steps outlined in this warranty have been taken to validate your claim, we will:
- Deliver to you a quantity of equivalent Fullback® siding insulation. Progressive Foam Technologies, Inc. will pay for material and labor to replace your non-performing Fullback® siding insulation; OR
- If we are unable to provide a replacement insulation, or if you agree with us to accept a refund, we will refund to you the original purchase price of the non-performing Fullback® siding insulation.
What to do if you believe your Fullback® siding insulation is not performing as promised
To submit a claim, you must mail written notice of the suspected variance to: Fullback® Siding Insulation, Progressive Foam Technologies, Inc., 6753 Chestnut Ridge Road, Beach City, Ohio 44608.
After we have received your notice of suspected variance, you will need to provide us with samples of your Fullback® siding insulation product and siding so that the "R"-value and/or permeability of the samples may be determined. We require that one of our authorized representatives be present to observe the removal of the samples.
You will be required to pay for all costs resulting from the removal of your Fullback® siding insulation product and siding samples, including the replacement of these samples, and all of the costs resulting from the testing of the samples. If laboratory tests prove that the Fullback® siding insulation on your home is defective, Progressive Foam Technologies, Inc. will refund the cost of sample removal and testing.
Claim validation - the testing process
We require that the "R"-value testing of your Fullback® siding insulation and siding samples be done according to ASTM Test Method C236. The ASTM Test Method C236 is a testing method that has been accepted by the United States government for testing the "R"-value of insulation
The permeability testing of your Fullback® siding insulation and siding samples shall be done according to ASTM Test Method E96. The ASTM Test Method E96 is a permeability testing method that has been approved by the United States government. In the event that one or both of these test methods is unavailable, the samples shall be tested according to the closest equivalent test method available, which has been approved by us.
How to make sure that this warranty applies to your Fullback® siding insulation
In order for this warranty to apply, we require that the Fullback® siding insulation be installed according to our specifications, recommendations and application instructions in effect at the time your Fullback® siding insulation is installed; and as a complete system including our appropriate accessory products, such as EasyPost® and EasyStart™. You may obtain a complete list of the Fullback® siding insulation specifications, recommendations and application instructions by contacting us at the address below.

We have not authorized any of our representatives to make any representations or promises to you, except for those contained in this Warranty, and there are no warranties or guarantees that extend beyond the terms of this Warranty. ALL STATE LAW-IMPLED WARRANTIES OR MECHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THE SAME LIFETIME DURATION OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE. Note: Some states do not allow limitations on how long and implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SUCH AS INCREMENTAL HEATING, COOLING OR SIMILAR COSTS AND HARM TO PROPERTY, RESULTING FROM YOUR FULLBACK THERMAL SUPPORT SYSTEM'S FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS WARRANTY.
