Crane as well as certainteed have a 16' insulated siding panel. however, Crane will be disconyinuing their 16 foot panel in a few weeks only offering a 12 foot in insulated. their regular non insulated will still come in 16. certianteed will now have a big advantage as they have a 20 foot piece and are not discontinuing their 16' insulated panel. only problem with certainteed is that they don't have alot of accessories that go with a 1 1/4 j-pocket for insulated siding. for example,you cannot use their vinyl crown moulding,only comes in a 3/4 pocket. you could trim it out and remove some insulation of the back of the siding. who wants to do that!
