The online channel features step-by-step product installation videos for contractors & homeowners.

The Fypon YouTube channel was launched with a series of videos showcasing the transformation of a front porch on a Civil War era home by contractor Steve Roth using a variety of decorative Fypon® urethane millwork products. New videos on the channel include: • Installing a Faux Ceiling Beam • Installing a Door Surround • Installing a Column Wrap – Parts I and II • Installing a Soffit Treatment – Parts I and II • Front Porch Transformation Overview “These original videos were shot for the Fypon YouTube channel and provide easy step-by-step instructions for the proper techniques in adding Fypon pieces to the exterior of the home,” says Brad Johnson, vice president of marketing for Therma-Tru Corp., parent company of Fypon. “Additional informative videos will be added in the near future to make this a valuable resource channel for both building industry professionals and homeowners.”

Fypon offers thousands of decorative millwork elements in a variety of architectural styles to enhance the interior and exterior of homes. Each piece is crafted from tough, weather-resistant, high-performance materials that are resistant to decay, insect infestation and water damage for long-lasting beauty and low maintenance.

A: No. Our environmentally friendly cleaning process is safe for all types of blinds.

Q: Why should I clean my blinds with Ultrasonics?
