Why are SIPs more environmentally responsible?
When you build with SIPs, youre building homes that can save 50% or more on energy costs when compared to conventional stick frame construction. That means less fossil fuel consumption and less greenhouse gas emissions. SIP technology provides higher whole-wall R-value, tightens the building envelope, and reduces air infiltration. That allows you to downsize the heating and cooling equipment. Its the combination of these systems that makes up the technology of a high-performance SIP home. You will also enjoy the green building benefits of less job-site waste, better utilization of material resources, and more environmentally friendly building practices.
