An insulated siding member and a method of fabricating an insulating siding member is described. The siding member may include a siding panel, an insulation member and a backing layer. The siding panel may have a cavity that may serve as a molding receptacle to allow the insulating material to be molded directly into the cavity of the remainder of the siding panel. The cavity may also allow for the insulation layer to be applied directly to the panel, whereby there may be no need for an additional adhesive layer to attach the insulation member with the siding panel. Thus, the backing layer may be attached directly to the insulation member. The siding member may have a configuration that may also allow the siding member to be easily engaged with or be interlocked with another siding member to provide for better and more uniform insulation.

1. An insulated siding member for covering an exterior of a structure, said insulated siding member comprising: a siding panel having an attachment channel and a back portion, wherein said back portion is generally shaped to provide a receptacle capable of retaining a liquid material;a monolithic interlocking configuration located on said siding panel, said interlocking configuration comprising: a tongue located at a first end of said siding panel;a groove located at a second end of said siding panel, wherein said groove is of a shape and size to fit said tongue therein;an upper lip located on a side of said groove;an upper surface located on a side of said groove opposite said upper lip;a lower slot located on a side of said tongue;a lower surface located on a side of said tongue opposite said lower slot, wherein said lower slot and said lower surface extend a length outward from said tongue;an insulation material held in said receptacle generally filling said receptacle; anda vapor barrier secured with the insulation member, wherein the vapor barrier is capable of being positioned adjacent the insulation member and the exterior of the structure. 2. The siding member of claim 1, wherein said interlocking configuration permits said siding member to be stacked upon and interlocked with a second siding member having a second interlocking configuration substantially identical to said interlocking configuration. 3. The siding member of claim 2, wherein said tongue of said interlocking configuration is capable of aligning with a groove of said second interlocking configuration and capable of providing a frictional fit therebetween. 4. The siding member of claim 3, wherein said attachment channel is recessed and located between a planar section and a front section. 5. The siding member of claim 4, wherein said attachment channel includes at least one attachment aperture for securing said siding panel to the exterior of the structure. 6. The siding member of claim 1, wherein an end of said upper surface is generally aligned with an end of said lower surface thereby forming said receptacle. 7. The siding member of claim 4 further comprising a rear surface, wherein said rear surface is capable of abutting a planar section and a front section of said second siding member. 8. The siding member of claim 3, wherein said upper lip and said upper surface are generally planar. 9. The siding member of claim 8, wherein said lower slot and said lower surface are generally planar. 10. The siding member of claim 9, wherein said lower slot of said interlocking configuration is capable of abutting an upper lip of said second interlocking configuration. 11. An insulated siding member for covering an exterior of a structure, said insulated siding member comprising: a siding panel having a monolithic interlocking configuration, an upper surface and a lower surface, wherein said siding panel is formed from a first material;a cavity located within said siding panel and extending between said upper surface and said lower surface;wherein said cavity is capable of serving as a molding receptacle during processing to allow liquid insulating material to be generally held with said cavity;an insulation member defined by and secured within said cavity of said siding panel; anda vapor barrier secured with the insulation member, said vapor barrier formed from a second material, wherein the vapor barrier is capable of being positioned adjacent the insulation member and the exterior of the structure and wherein said first material is different from said second material. 12. The siding member of claim 11, wherein said cavity accommodates said insulation member during processing and allows said insulation member to be applied directly to said siding panel. 13. The siding member of claim 11, wherein said insulation member is secured to said siding panel via a chemical bond. 14. The siding member of claim 13, wherein said insulation member comprises a polyurethane or a polyisocyanurate foam. 15. The siding member of claim 11, wherein said second material vapor comprises a self adhesive material. 16. The siding member of claim 15, wherein said second material comprises high-density polyethylene. 17. An insulated siding member comprising: a siding panel having a front facing and a monolithic interlocking configuration, said siding panel being formed from a first material, wherein said siding panel includes a cavity located on a back side thereof, wherein said cavity is generally closed on at least three sides and forms a molding receptacle to allow liquid insulating material to be inserted into and generally held within said cavity;an insulation member secured to said siding panel; anda vapor barrier secured to said insulation member formed from a second material, wherein the vapor barrier is capable of being positioned adjacent the insulation member and an exterior of a building structure and wherein said first material is different from said second material. 18. The insulated siding member of claim 1, wherein said second material is high-density polyethylene. 19. The insulated siding member of claim 17, wherein said siding panel is free of a rear facing. 20. The insulated siding member of claim 17, wherein said second material is high-density polyethylene. 21. The insulated siding member of claim 11, wherein said second material is high-density polyethylene.
