The Mitten Starter Strip provides a stable base for the first row of vinyl siding panels. It's usually nailed or screwed to the exterior wall near the bottom, ensuring that the siding panels have a secure attachment point. This helps prevent the siding from coming loose or shifting over time. The starter strip is typically designed with small drainage holes or channels that help direct any moisture that gets behind the siding out and away from the wall.
It's crucial to start the installation of vinyl siding level, as this ensures that the subsequent rows of siding will also be level. The starter strip helps achieve this by providing a level reference point for the first row of siding panels.
