Tips on finding siding with Florida Product Approval Number?

Hello everyone,

This is a question for those investors that pick out your own materials, or any GC’s out there.

The lumber that I wanted to use from Home Depot is manufactured by a company that does not have a Florida Approval Code for any ofntheir products, and I have found that to be true with others I have looked up as well.

The only way I have thought of is to search for what I am looking for on the DBPR website https://www.floridabuilding.org/pr/pr_app_srch.aspx and call each manufacturer to ask for pricing. It does take a while because it shows all counties so you have to decide what areas work for you, and it seems difficult to find any investor-friendly companies this way.

If there is any way to search with more time efficiency please let me know.

P.s. If you have a particular type of siding that you use on all your projects I would love to know what product!
