How do Manufactured Homes stand up to natural disasters like strong winds, earthquake and flood?
A. They are as safe as conventional homes. In fact, when you think about it, every Manufactured Home is tested by winds in excess of 65 mph! All are towed at freeway speeds (pulled by trucks) and are often subjected to stiff cross winds. We know they’re tough. Q. What heating, cooling, insulation and plumbing are available! A. As in any other home, you have a choice of electric or gas. Plumbing is equal to, or exceeds Code. Insulation is blown-in Thermaflex for the ceiling, fiberglass in walls and floors. These can be upgraded. And, WAUSAU-built homes come with a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty on the actual home itself. All components carry the manufacturers warranty of the individual component .
