Choosing Siding for the West Virginia Climate
Price is not the only test. In West Virginia - about 85°F in summer, 23°F on winter nights - these weather factors shape the right choice:
Climate regions run from 1 (cool) to 5 (hot); West Virginia sits in region 3.
Damp, shaded walls. North walls and spots under trees stay wet for days. Plan on an occasional soft wash, and use rot-proof materials close to the ground and around decks and steps.
Cold-weather impacts. Cold makes vinyl stiff and easier to crack when something hits it. Thicker panels survive a winter of shovels, balls and ladders better; fiber cement ignores the cold, but its cut ends must be sealed.
In West Virginia, the mild weeks of spring and autumn are the favorite time for siding, so they fill first. Crews manage fine in summer; hard winter cold slows vinyl and caulk work.
