Intent
Intent 1: 
To limit the probability that the performance of vinyl siding will fall significantly below expectations, which could lead to:
  • premature failure, or
  • an inability to effectively shed water.
This is to limit the probability of precipitation or meltwater ingress, which could lead to deterioration, which could lead to the structural failure of exterior walls or elements protected by exterior walls, which could lead to harm to persons.
