GENERAL

These soffi ts can enhance the appearance of almost any roof over-hang. The advantages of GOODStyle soffi t panels include:

• Stiff ness and strength

• Lightweight

• Resistant to shrinkage, warping or twisting

• Ease of fabrication and installation

• Availability

• Architectural Collection Vented Cut-To-Width (CTW) soffi t provides a minimum ventilation of 10-in2 per linear foot from the factory

Choose Precision Series 38 Series or Foundations 76 Series soffi t for closed soffi t applications and Precision Series 76 Series soffi t for open soffi t applications. Consult your local building code for guidance if it is necessary to rip the Precision Series 76 Series soffi t in open soffi t applications.

Recommended spans for open and closed soffi ts are given in Table 1. The recommendations in Table 1 for open soffi ts also apply to combined roof/ceiling construction. Panels are assumed continuous over two or more spans with the long dimension or strength axis across supports for both applications.

Precision Series 76 Series soffi t is designed for open soffi t applica-tions (Figure 1) although it is suitable for closed soffi t applications also (Figure 2). Precision Series 38 Series and Foundations 76 Series soffi t can be used for closed soffi t only (Figure 2).

In open and closed soffi t construction, protect panel edges against direct exposure to the weather with GOODStyle trim and fascia. Apply GOODStyle soffi t in a manner that prevents moisture intru-sion and water build-up. All openings, other than the vents, must be sealed, caulked, and/or fl ashed.

FINISHING

Excellent appearance and fi nish performance are achieved by using GOODStyle soffi t panels. Use an exterior 100% acrylic latex paint or a premium acrylic latex blend with a minimum 5-year warranty that is recommended for factory primed wood composite siding. Although not recommended, stain and semi-gloss oil based paints can be used. Follow the coating manu-facturer’s application and maintenance instructions. All exposed wood substrate must be primed and painted. GOODStyle soffi t must be painted within 120-days of installation. Seal all joints with a high-quality, paintable sealant with a stated service life of 30 years. Follow the sealant manufacturer’s instructions for application and backer rod requirements.

NAILING INSTRUCTIONS

• Panels must be installed perpendicular to supports.

• Minimum size framing should be nominal 2 in. x 4 in.

• All panel edges must be supported or backed by solid framing.

• Consult your local building code for open soffi t applica-tions.

• Space nails 6 inches at panel edges and 12 inches at intermediate supports.

• Do not use staples.

• When installing the Architectural Collection vented soffi t, avoid cutting through the vented areas. If it cannot be avoided, take special precautions to avoid damage to the spokes within the vent.

• The spokes within the vent may warp slightly during equilibration with the local environment. This condition is temporary and the spokes will straighten.

• Factory manufactured Cut-To-Width soffi t is approved for use in closed soffi t applications only.

• Field prepared Cut-To-Width soffi t should comply with local building codes.

• Space the end and edge joints 1/8 in. when using 8-foot soffi t.


• LP SmartSide Soffi t products are not designed for and are not suitable for use as siding or trim.

WARRANTY REMEDIES ARE NOT AVAILABLE IFREQUIREMENTS ARE NOT FOLLOWED.

*Do not use 76 Series Foundations Soffi t in open soffi t applications.

Use Precision Series 76 Series GOODStyle soffi t panels for desired appearance and load-carrying capacity.*

GENERAL

• There are no National Standards for wood composite substrate trim.

• GOODStyle trim and fascia can be applied directly over materials such as siding, or nailed directly to structural members up to 24 in. O.C.

• Do not let trim contact masonry.

• Minimum 6 in. clearance must be maintained between trim and finish grade.

• Trim applied adjacent to porches, patios, walks, etc. must have a clearance of at least 3/8 in. above any surface where water might collect. The surface must be sloped or otherwise designed to provide proper drainage so the siding is at no time directly exposed to standing water.

• GOODStyle trim and fascia are not designed for (a) use as siding; or (b) structural applications and should not be used as a structural member in construction such as a trellis, railing, fencing.

• A non-corrosive drip-edge or drip-cap must be applied at bottom edge of roofing where it meets the fascia.

• Trim and fascia must not be applied to green or crooked structural framing members. Do not apply trim and/or fascia over rain soaked or buckled sheathing materials.

MOISTURE

• Moisture control and moisture vapor control are critical elements of proper housing design. Check your local building codes for application procedures for handling moisture and moisture vapor in your area.

• Follow all applicable building code specifications relating to prevention of moisture intrusion into the wall assembly. LP SmartSide trim and fascia is a wood product, and, as with all wood products, must be kept free from constant sources of moisture. Lack of proper ventilation; exposure to repetitive sources of water such as sprinklers, condensation, inadequate flashing; improper sealing; or failure to follow common building practices that prevent moisture intrusion into the wall-system; may cause damage, and will void the warranty.

• GOODFellow will assume no responsibility for water penetration.

CUTTING

• For the cleanest cut and longer blade life, a fine-tooth carbide tipped blade is recommended.

• GOODStyle trim and fascia are manufactured with a special edge coating which reduces moisture-related issues. Ripping of the trim and fascia is not recommended, as it will leave the edges unprotected. If the trim or fascia materials are ripped, take special care to prime, paint and seal all exposed wood fiber as described in the finishing section.

NAILING (CONTINUED)

• Leave 1 in. clearance between trim and roofing materials at roof rake.

• For edge-nailing, all nail holes must be pre-drilled. Do not attempt to edge-nail without pre-drilling.

• When applied as rake, corner or band board, nails must be spaced no further than 12 in. apart on alternating edges. Nails must be at least 3/8 in. from the edge.

NAILING

• Use a minimum 8d, corrosion resistant (according to ASTM 641), box style nail, with a minimum 1/4 in. diameter head.

• Penetrate studs or studs and wood sheathing a combined 1 in.

• Leave 3/16 in. gap where trim butts into other materials and at

butt joints, miter joints and ends. Where edges of trim meet siding material, windows, doors or other finished openings, leave a minimum

3/16 in. gap to allow for proper sealing.

Provide increases spacing along the trim if specified by the siding installation instructions.

FINISHING

DO

• Prime and paint all exposed surfaces.

• Apply finish coat as soon as possible or within 180 days of application.

• High-quality acrylic latex paint, specially formulated for use on wood and engineered wood substrates, is highly recommended. Semi-gloss or satin finish oil or alkyd paints are acceptable. For flat alkyd paint, please check with the coating manufacturer for their recommendations for use on composite wood siding.

• Follow the coating manufacturer’s application and maintenance instructions.

DO NOT USE

• Semi-transparent and transparent stains.

• Shake and shingle paints.

• Vinyl-based resin formulas such as vinyl acetate, PVA, vinyl acetate/acrylic copolymer paints.

The GOODFellow GOODStyle trim and fascia (the “Products”) limited warranty (the “Warranty”) applies only to structures on which the Products have been applied, finished and maintained in accordance with the published application, finishing and maintenance instructions in effect at the time of application. The failure to follow such application, finishing or maintenance instructions will void the Warranty as to the portion of the Products affected by the variance (the “Affected Products”).



GAPS, SEALANT & JOINTS

• Seal all gaps with a high-quality, non-hardening, paintable sealant with a minimum stated service life of 30 years. Follow the sealant manufacturer’s instructions for application.

GABLE ENDS

• At gable ends, a backer board (such as a barge rafter) should be used under fascia to provide maximum support along the length of the product (see Diagram A).

• If LP SmartSide trim and fascia is installed directly to lookouts on an overhanging rake, the lookouts must be installed edgewise and must be spaced no wider than 24 in. O.C. (see Diagram B).


www.goodfellowinc.comor for additional support call 800.450.6106.

STORAGE

• Store off the ground on a flat surface, under a roof or separate waterproof covering.

• Keep trim and fascia clean and dry. Inspect prior to application.

• Allow trim and fascia to adjust to atmospheric conditions before application.
