Modular Homes are one of the fastest growing types of housing today. Manufactured in a factory setting and then constructed on site, modular Homes have the great advantages of being both affordable, attractive, and up-to-date. But best of all, they are also more energy efficient. But, they are more energy efficient from start to finish.

As technology improves the energy efficiency of modular homes is enhanced which in turn lowers energy expenses. Even the building process is more energy efficient for modular construction than for stick built construction. The manufacturing process of Modular Homes saves energy because they are produced in volume and with greater quality control. This translates into using less energy overall. By building indoors in a factory, rather than building outdoors, where weather and other factors can cause delays and lower productivity.

In modular homes all of the appliances used  are energy star certified. The windows are insulated as are all of the wall, ceiling and floor panels. Because they are built modular style, they are insulated better and the insulation does not stop at the wall stud. This reduces home energy costs.
