Energy Calculator

Our detailed Energy Calculator is under construction, and coming soon. Until it is complete, here is general information about energy and cost comparisons when using PBS SIPs.

SIPs help you stand apart from the competition... and help reduce your bottom line.

Premier SIPs fit the "green" world better than any other framing product on the market. As the competition in the building industry is tougher than it has been in years, Premier SIPs can actually help builders sell their homes faster.

Top this all off with a jump start towards the qualifying points needed for LEED and NAHB Green Building certification programs, and we're pretty sure you'll agree that the "Green Factor" of SIPs has brought an innovation that is long over due. Learn more...

Cost Comparisons

Builders who start using SIPs don't turn back. The green, environmental product-features in SIPs are great, but what really makes builders happy is that they can provide a far superior product to their customers while simultaneously saving money. After all, who doesn't like a bigger bottom line?

Comparison to Stick Frame Construction on 2,000 sq. ft. home.	Premier SIPs House (roofs, walls & floors)
Overall Labor Savings	Pre-cut panels arrive to the jobsite ready to install, and can save up to 60% on combined labor on overall framing, trim/millwork, window, door and flooring installations.
HVAC System Reduction	Up to 40% smaller HVAC system
Jobsite Waste Savings	Up to 60% less jobsite framing lumber waste
Reduced Call Backs	Stronger, straighter roofs, walls and floors that don't bow, warp or bend, and reduce builder callbacks by up to 50%.
Framing Material Costs	Premier SIPs arrive to the jobsite pre-cut and pre-insulated. The material cost for Premier SIPs (as compared to traditional stick frame lumber and insulation packages) is only about 5% higher in raw good costs. This cost includes floor plan conversion to SIP panel construction.
End Building/Home Owner Utility Savings	Up to 60% savings on energy bills for your customers. Definitely a selling point.
Bottom Line	SIPs are the superior roof , wall and floor framing product, and are extremely competitive to a builder's overall budget (compared to stick-frame construction).
