New codes are coming regarding furring strips and siding to create a

"DEAD-AIR SPACE" behind the exterior cladding to increase drainage and venting.

Nailed siding without furring or some sort of Rain-Screen system in the future will be a thing of the past, because it can trap moisture and cause rot and decay!

Would you rather sell your home a few years down the road and say it is protected with Rain-Screen technology and is up to code?, or would you want to be the homeowner that cannot sell their home because they chose a nailed face sealed Moisture Trapping siding installation without Rain-Screen technology?

The bottom line is Siding-Master™ is the best way to install fiber cement, vinyl and wood siding, and the best way to protect your home from moisture damage!

SPECIAL NOTE: The US Department of Energy states a dead-air space behind the siding is the best way to prevent moisture damage caused by Wind-Driven Rain!

"U.S.Code Acceptance
Current building codes do not mandate rain screen designs. They are, however, increasingly under consideration for adoption into building codes. Code criteria is typically based on structural issues. Advocacy and manufacturer recommended practices (e.g., furring strips between cedar siding and foil-face rigid insulation) have developed through trial and error. "
