Building a stronger home is not easy when using wood frame construction. You need MORE wood framing – which will make the home LESS energy efficient. But when using Eco-Panels products – we are providing strength and energy efficiency in one product, at one time. It’s nice when things are simple like that.
We celebrate the great work that LSU’s Ag Center is doing in delving into the Insurance Industry’s FORTIFIED HOME program, a nation-wide program that has a prescriptive approach to building a stronger home – with the potential opportunity for REDUCED INSURANCE PREMIUMS because you have proven that you now have a stronger built home.
Eco-Panels has been familiar with and helping clients achieve a FORTIFIED Home for about 15 years now – and we estimate that is now TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS in client savings in insurance premiums since that time – making our panels a bargain when fully considering the real value of a stronger home through significantly reduced insurance premiums.
Unfortunately most homes in the United States are NOT built to be strong, they are just built to code minimum strength (because that’s all the builder is required to do). Eco-Panels can help you achieve a 300-500% stronger structural frame than wood frame construction – and that’s just by setting our panels and following our fastener schedules. Reach out to Eco-Panels today at www.eco-panels.com – we’d love to hear from you.
