http://www.flickr.com/groups/livegreenpremiersips/ When you choose to build your home with Premier SIPs, you are doing your part to preserve our environment and natural resources. Very few other framing products are considered &quot;environmentally responsible.&quot; Here are a few ways that Premier SIPs are green for you as a homeowner: -Premier SIPs create energy efficient structures, regularly saving you up to 60% every month on your utility bills. -The energy efficiency helps your home stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter without using excessive amounts of natural gas, fuel or electricity. -Premier SIPs form long walls, roofs and floors with very few gaps. -SIPs help preserve the interior air quality of your home, while working to keep harmful pollutants out of your home. -SIPs structures offer less air infiltration and produce an almost air-tight construction. This allows you to install a smaller HVAC (Heating Ventilation &amp; Air Conditioning) system in your home. -SIPs are made from 100% recyclable materials. -The wood portion of the panel (the OSB) is made only from rapidly renewable (fast growing) trees. OSB is produced in a way that uses almost the entire part of a tree, so very little wood is wasted. -Jobsite framing waste is reduced by up to 60% so you can be confident the framing materials you are selecting are not adding excessive lumber waste to our landfills.
