One of the biggest sellers for one our largest home install companies is to remove the old masonite siding and replace with hardie. I have great alternative which probaably cost a little less but the benefits to your customers are amazing.
Let me know if anyone is intrested in this product
Thanks,

Why fiber cement siding? It's R- value is a whopping .53. Needs to be painted.
When you compare the cost of fiber cement to the Prodigy Siding which is an insulated panel that R- Value is up to a 5.3 and is designed to reduce energy cost.
The vinyl surface and secure seams repel the worst downpours and the insulating layer "breathes" to resist water retention.
The engineered vinyl surface is guaranteed to resist fading for a generation.
Prodigy's durable surface and contoured underlayment safegaurd against the pounding force of hailstorms, and is designed to stay securely fastened, with no tearing or rattling, even in extreme winds.
You can go to the Prodigy web site and calculate your potentail energy savings on the Energy Savings Calculater. Then you can see how much money you could be saving on your annual energy bills with Prodigy.
