The
superior whole wall R-values of SIPs minimizes the amount of HVAC equipment
and severely limits ductwork. This can be a tremendous money saving feature
to SIP homeowners. Additionally, SIP builders generally reduce jobsite waste
which is enviormentally advantageous and reduces disposal costs.
SIP buildings - including those manufactured by Foam Laminates of Vermont
- qualify for many federal and state funded energy saving programs including
Energy Star. Additionally, banks often grant Energy Efficient Mortgages and
many SIP owners have reported that their homes received high appraisals and
resale value.

Building
with SIPs can be extremely cost effective. By the nature of their construction,
SIPs can be erected more rapidly then traditional stick frames. This increased
efficiency results in less labor costs and therefore monitary savings.
SIPs can often be produced much cheaper than the indiviual components that
make up an insulated stick framed wall. Moreover, the SIPs erection process
is much cleaner and avoids the unpleasant installation of fiberglass.
