Energy Efficient & Airtight

SIPLOCK super insulated 9” R38 Walls. 11” R46 Roofs.

SIPLOCK super insulated panels are airtight.

Oak ridge National Labs recently stated that 40% of heat loss is due to air leakage.

  • SIPLOCK eliminates air-leakage. Eliminate high temperature, humidity, condensation, rot, mold and spore growth from leaky attics and crawl spaces.

 

Reduce Energy Costs by up to 75% 

SIPLOCK high-energy efficient design. All interior space is conditioned.

Multi-Zone Ductless HVAC Heat Pump. 

Each floor or zone has its own programmable thermostat.

Cooling and heating costs can be as much as 75% lower than conventional systems.

  • In Florida, for example a Siplock Energy Star rated 2700 sq. ft. home could consume about .42 Kw per hour for HVAC you could expect about a $25 monthly cost for HVAC. 2011 Florida Electric average rate is 12 cents per KWh.
  • A similar home in NY would be about $65 monthly for heating and cooling.

No Inefficient, Leaky and Contaminated HVAC Ducts

SIPLOCK design homes do not require HVAC air ducts.

  • Ductless energy efficient HVAC heat pumps from Mitsubishi, Samsung, etc.

 

Healthy Odor Free Air

According to the EPA, indoor air quality is typically 5 times worse than outdoor air.

Ducts are a breeding ground for mold, mildew and insects.

Ducts circulate fumes, from organic chemicals, released from carpets and furniture.

Ducts circulate fumes from household cleaners, paints, cooking and smoking.

Ducts circulate pet dander and dust.

  • Eliminate odors, fumes, filter airborne pollutants and contaminants.
  • SIPLOCK homes improve the efficiency of HVAC and ventilation systems.
