Has anyone had any experience or seen the faux stone siding made of polystyrene in use?
Customer had some samples in 2 ft x 4 ft sheets, interlocking, looking like dry-stack stonework. Very light, would also break easy. One of the ‘stones’ broke in our handling it.
Free runing chickens just love that stuff.
They all have full crops and it is so easy to get.
No food value and they can destroy a wall while you work in the garden.
Been there … Cookie
My biggest concern is when these pannels and/or faux wood beams are used inside. As a plastic foam material they should be covered with a fire rated material. Of course that would defeat the intention of installing the products.
Hey I here it is very convenient as you can repair it with Great Stuffand it is a good insulate.
For my next project I am going to be siding my house with packing peanuts.
My old bean bag chair just burst so I will make use of the pellets to fill in the small spaces and conserve energy.Keep Green :mrgreen:
When I was at Home Depot last week, I couldn’t believe my eyes, but they were actually selling styrofoam baseboard trim. That should last a week in a living area.
It appears that you can buy this product with a fire rating and the test results appear to be in the 20/200 range.
I don’t believe I would want to find out personally as to exactly what happens.
Since the product can be purchased with a fire rating and the same product without the rating, I can just see it now being installed in the wrong place and when you see the product, how would one know the difference and how would you call it out?
