        "text": "The lifespan of sliding door weatherstripping varies significantly based on the material type, quality of installation, frequency of door use, and exposure to environmental elements. High-quality materials like silicone or EPDM rubber can last 10-20 years, while foam or vinyl might need replacement every 3-7 years. In the Bay Area, coastal exposure to salt air and sun can accelerate wear. Regular cleaning and maintenance can help extend its life, but professional assessment will determine actual condition.",
