How does a SIPs envelope improve indoor air quality?
The air tight character of a SIP building envelope prevents the flow of air into the interior except as is called for in a controlled manner, reducing the infiltration of dust, pollens and other airborne particles. Humidity is also controlled more easily, resulting in a more comfortable indoor environment while reducing susceptibility to mold growth and dust mites. The air tightness of a SIP built home has been recognized by American Lung Association as meeting the requirements of their air quality controlled home.
