Real-world usage of SDG|SDGINS1/4
Appears in 5 of 358 scopes ESXPress has analysed and in 4 of 550 converted customer scopes. Usage is measured from real claim documents, never estimated. How this is measured.
How it's written in real claims
From 10 line items across 5 scopes processed through ESXPress — the exact operation text and unit of measure adjusters actually write:
- “Insulation Baffle, Foam - Replace”8 lines
- “R&R Fanfold foam insulation board - 1/4"”2 lines
Dominant unit of measure: SF — used in 80% of samples.

What it is
SDG|SDGINS1/4 is a Siding (SDG) Xactimate SEL code used for this work, measured in square feet (SF).
ESXPress’s reference documents SDG|SDGINS1/4. Across processed claim scopes, ESXPress observed 10 line items written against this code — 8 of them (80.0%) measured in SF, and 2 line items in EA. The line appears in 5 of the 358 scopes analysed (about 1.4%) and in 1 of the 61 converted customer scopes.
When to use it
Use SDG|SDGINS1/4 when the scope calls for this code — Siding work measured in square feet (SF). Across processed scopes, 8 of the 10 observed line items (80.0%) were written as “Insulation Baffle, Foam - Replace”.
The co-occurrence data below comes from processed scopes; the strongest pairing is with Siding (SDG|SDGVINBB) — the same scopes, 3 times.
How to use it
Measure the work in SF: 8 of the 10 observed line items (80.0%) used SF and 2 in EA. The unitAsUsed analysis puts SF at a 80.0% share, making it the safe unit for conversion.
The most common line text is “Insulation Baffle, Foam - Replace” (8 of the 10 sampled lines, 80.0%).
Often used together
Two kinds of related codes are listed below. First, codes that appear in the same scopes as SDG|SDGINS1/4 — co-occurrence measured across the claim scopes processed through ESXPress with support of at least 3 scopes and lift of at least 1.5. Second, other frequently used Siding (SDG) category codes, ranked by how often they appear in the analysed scopes. Descriptions are from the ESXPress code reference.
Real-world examples
Each example is an anonymised line from a processed claim scope: the exact operation text and unit of measure adjusters wrote, with the observed line-item count. The count is line frequency across the analysed samples — never a price and never a quantity from a specific claim.
- In a real claim, this line appeared as: “Insulation Baffle, Foam - Replace”, SF, qty 8.
