With all the talk about going "GREEN" you may wonder--the answer is YES, my home is built with structural insulated panels. All windows and doors are low E insulated glass except the front doors and the upper glass. They are shaded in summer and collect helpful heat in the winter. A heat pump is used for heating and cooling and hot water is furnished with tankless heaters. The solar panels in front are used to heat my stained concrete floors. The floors are also insulated using InsulTarp under the slab. The tall section of the house in the center is a partial 2 story--most of it is a heated and cooled racquetball court. Utilities for this all electric home are almost unbelievable. Average cost year round is less than $96.00 per month.	No trees are used in the manufacturing of our PowrPanel™ SIPs panels. They  consist of 6" or 8" thick EPS foam slabs sandwiched between .030 aluminum  skins. This combination, when chemically laminated forms a very strong  structural panel with outstanding insulation values and incredible span  capabilities.  EPS foam and aluminum are both completely recycleable.  These  interlocking panels are used to form the exterior walls and roofs in commercial  buildings.  Our structures are engineered for winds up to 150 mph .       Any type of finish can be applied to the panels, stucco, siding, brick, stone, etc.  Our structures are fire resistant, surpassing the requirements for a non-load  bearing fire endurance rating from either side of the panel.  When combined    with interior drywall and exterior stucco or brick they are near fireproof.     Aluminum skins provide a double radiant barrier for the roof and walls of the  entire building.  In addition to improving air quality this aluminum/foam    combination saves up to 50% or more in energy costs.      Compared to a building envelope constructed with conventional framing, the  use of SIPS panels can result in a shell that has a 58% better thermal  performance overall, according to tests performed by the University of    Tennessee and the the U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge Laboratory.     High R-factor is just one measurement with aluminum SIPS. The radiant barrier  and tightness of the overall envelope is the key to extreme energy efficiency.
This is a structural Insulated panel home we built in Crystal River, Florida. It is on a canal so it's built on concrete piers as required in that area. This shows the versatility of the panels and the ease of construction.	Finished home in Crystal River
