Single family residence.the added protection of the 200 MPH rated Innova High Impact MGO SIP was a benefit that helped sell this project to the client. This project was hit by a tornado with 200 MPH plus winds recorded with only minor siding and two cracked impact windows damaged. There was no damage to the building envelope. See University of Florida report on the Tornado for further information as to how this home outperformed over 80 conventional build homes subjected to the same tornado.

SIP wall thickness and core material: 6 3/4" and 8 1/2" high impact MGO SIP - EPS core
SIP roof thickness and core material: 10 1/2 MGO / OSB SIP Roof panels

The Innova HIP MGO SIPs used on this home is Dade County approved and tested at wind speeds that exceed 240 MPH. The performance of this home when subjected to tornado force winds justifies the substantial and superior strength of homes constructed with this building system.

OSB / MGO SIP Panels were approved for the project by the local building authority. Innova HIP MGO SIP walls were approved by the local building authority. The SIP Panels for this project were designed to meet seismic zone 3.

Describe the HVAC system used on the project: Unico high efficiency, high velocity small duct central heating and cooling system.

Describe any other energy-saving materials used in the building envelope other than SIPs. List U-values of windows used and the R-value of any insulation materials: Average monthly energy bill $54, estimated saving of $4,042 per year, $166,924 saved over 30 year mortgage, (calculated vs. 2012 IECC with fiscal fuel escalation rate per 2015 EPA Annual Energy Outlook)

High performance insulation system - 6" & 8" high impact MGO SIP walls, 10" MGO/OSB SIP roof panels Comprehensive draft protection Fresh air system for cleaner, healthier indoor air High-efficiency comfort system High-efficiency appliances and advanced lighting technology for energy and water savings

The home is equipped with a solar hot water system and solar PV system.
