Composite Decking and local data in Duluth
Composite's main tradeoff is surface heat, and in Duluth sees about 53 days a year at 90°F or above. Lighter colors and heat-mitigating board lines are worth comparing.
About 80 wet days and 47 freeze-thaw days a year make moisture-resistant capped boards a practical advantage over unsealed wood.
With 53% detached homes, many projects in Duluth re-deck an existing frame, so joist spacing must be checked against the board's span rating first.
