Homes built using quality materials and construction methods weather the years better. Building materials found in manufactured housing are equal to that used in site-built construction. Unlike on-site construction, the lumber, insulation, siding and other materials used to build manufactured homes are never exposed to and potentially damaged by rain or other moisture. Manufactured homes must satisfy a stringent federal building code. These standards cover structural design, construction, fire safety, energy efficiency and performance of heating, plumbing, air conditioning, thermal and electrical systems. Regional differences are taken into account for such considerations as snow load, wind tolerance and insulation. The result is a home of great structural integrity and durability.
