Construction Tutorial for Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs)

September 07th 2008

Testimonials

We have used the panel construction on four homes including our own which we lived in for five years. This is really the only way to construct for long term heating, cooling savings and quiet living. It is easy to install, has lower HVAC costs, and great sound proofing.

Sealant/Caulk:

		Caulk needs to be conducive to foam

		Caulk all sides of panels except for the top plate for an air tight seal.
