History of SIPs- “New” Technology
Created conceptually in 1935Frank Lloyd Wright used SIPs in affordable housing in the 1930’s & 1940’s.By 1960’s, SIPs were manufactured as we know them today.
What is a “SIP”?
Structural Insulated panels are a high-performance, energy-efficient system.They consist of structural skins laminated around a solid EPS closed-cell foam core.
The Enercept Advantage
Custom manufacturing to your specificationsR.O.’s pre-cut in factory to eliminate jobsite wasteA tighter, warmer, quieter structureReduced energy bills (40-60%)Menu of sheathing optionsLifetime warranty on materials
The Enercept Advantage
Customer service after project completionAssistance with LEED certification through Chris Zitelli at Ecos Materials and ServicesOn site technical assistanceTraining and assistance with new contractors
An Evolutionary Tail…
“Balloon” Framing Methods utilized in U.S. since 1830’s“Stick & Box” Framing Methods utilized since mid-1950’s
A Better Mousetrap
Utilize the best practices of framing technology with patented innovations in posts and structural membersSIPs are square, straight, and built to the dimensions of the structure in a controlled environmentFraming, Sheathing, and Insulation in one stepLess labor, better R-Value, Tighter Structure2 ½ times stronger than stick frame construction.
SIP Economics 101
Sustainable building doesn’t mean more $$ Green $$Significant labor efficienciesA savings of 40-60% per month in energy costs is realistic saving hundreds of dollars/monthTax incentives for both builder/developer and the homeowner*
*Dependant upon current legislation and having structure rated by approved provider
SIP Economics 101
Better Indoor Air Quality means a healthier house, helping with allergies, asthma, etc.You know what your mortgage payment will be in 15 years, but do you know what your heating bill will be???
