patriot home

[bigmarg]

We are about to make a good deal on a patriot home in Houston, Tx.
I believe the quality is very good. with 2x6 wall studs and 2x8 floor joists,
and good insulation, will my electric bill go down? or is this just hype???

I will say I do not have a definate answer, for you. This matter seems to be very risky, but as I have a 1973 single wide, I would say this sounds like it has evrything you would need for some great insulation for your new home. Good to hear I am not the only one with questions reguarding this subject. Thanks for thinking ahead. Buy the way I may not even have any.

Find out how much insulation they use. Also ask what kind of lumber they used .I think they used #3 lumber in our Patriot home . And dont forget to ask what size they used in your roof. I have had many problems with ours and have been forced to get the state to make the repairs to code. My floor decking had a lot of missed nails.And many of the 2x s under the decking were not good.and they had to repair them. BUT IT TOOK THE STATE getting involved to get them to do the repairs. And they are still not good The home is a patriot home built in waco texas
