Hi guys, Just curious, everyone states that its best to be safe than sorry when it comes to putting Vinyl siding on my TF verticle ICF home. But considering you have to penetrate the foam to attach it to the home, would it not be just as well to use peel and stick behind the siding as well as below grade?

I don't see why not, we have used either/or on a regular basis.

Meaning you have used hte peel and stick like MiraDry on the entire home behind the siding and above grade? My home is a one story ranch, so im exploring the possibilities. Anyhow know the rough costs of MiraDry and the Mira DimpleBoard? Just curious
