ENERGY EFFICIENCIES
Build a new home that is up to 100% more energy efficient than the average new home.
How would you like to create an energy savings dream home or commercial project with added protection against allergies, mold, carbon monoxide, have no drafts, and lower utility bills? Building with SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels) accomplishes this, and is far superior to stick and batt construction in so many ways.
We are also a Certified Trade Ally with Focus on Energy which means we partner with them through the entire building process to guarantee you a tight home—ensuring your dream home is also a sound investment and receives Focus on Energy’s New Home certification.
• Lower energy bills – An Ultimate Construction New Home is at least 25 percent more efficient than homes that are merely built to code, which means lower energy costs and more efficient performance.
• Comfort – Expect air tightness that minimizes drafts and creates superior indoor air quality; sealed combustion equipment and carbon monoxide detectors ensure combustion safety and whole-house ventilation for proper circulation.
• Resale differentiator – Ultimate Construction New Home owners who have sold their homes reported that prospective buyers valued energy efficiency when purchasing a home.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The Oak Ridge study discovered that structural insulated panels perform at about 97% of their stated R-value overall, losing only 3% to seams, splines and nail holes.
Scott of Ultimate Construction built our home many years ago (15+) and we love it! He stands behind his work! Over the years we have had some other work that needed to be done & we always call on Scott because we know he gets the job done in a timely manner. He & his crew have been nothing but professional and friendly. I would build again with Scott in a heartbeat!
Scott and his crew are the best! Ultimate construction built our house and Scott has since helped with several other projects. He not only does top-quality work, but offers fantastic ideas and advice. When we work with Scott, we know the project will turn out great!
We work with EPS who manufactures high-performance, sustainable homes made with Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs).
Ultimate Construction constructs homes using SIPS panels. We work with EPS who manufactures high-performance, sustainable homes made with Structural Insulated Panels. They manufacture the roof trusses, roof panels, floor trusses, basement panels and completely engineered building shells. These buildings are superior in both energy-efficiency and long-term durability. SIP homes use insulated wall and roof panels that are up to 15 times more airtight than traditional construction, resulting in more comfort and long-term durability.
A new home built with SIPs-structural insulated panels reduces air movement and drafts, moisture, noise and helps keep dust and allergens from penetrating. A SIP home can also be constructed faster and with less labor because the insulation, framing and sheathing are combined into one panel at the EPS manufacturing facility.
An EPS SIP home package combines building science with high performance products to create a new home that is environmentally friendly yet offers the comfort and conveniences a homeowner wants.
