Insulated siding system
First Claim
1. An insulated siding panel comprising:
- a foam insulation layer comprising a front face, a rear face, a first joining element defined in a first end edge, a second joining element defined in a second end edge, a recess in the rear face along the second end edge, and a female connecting member in the rear face;
a veneer layer attached to the front face of the foam insulation layer; and
an attachment member comprising a main portion, a male connecting member extending approximately transversely from the main portion into the female connecting member, and an attachment rail extending beyond the first end edge;
wherein the first and second joining elements are substantially complementary in shape so that adjacent panels can engage each other, and optionally wherein adjacent panels form a seal.

Abstract
An insulated siding panel comprises a foam insulation layer, an attachment member, and optionally a veneer layer. The foam insulation layer comprises a front face, a rear face, a tongue along a first end edge, a groove along a second end edge, and a slot defined in the rear face. The attachment member comprises an attachment rail and a member extending transversely from the attachment rail. The member of the attachment member is inserted into the slot of the foam insulation layer. When present, the veneer layer is attached to the front face of the foam insulation layer. When joined with other insulated siding panels, the interlocking occurs along the foam insulation layers to form an unbroken layer of insulation.
