Wood-Frame Construction VS. Perfect Panel Systems (BACK)
Construction TimeHighly labor intensive work results in longer construction time. |
 |
Construction TimeOur panels are based on the simple concept of interlocking blocks. This produces a simple to install system which can decrease construction time. |
Energy EfficiencyTypical wood-frame walls provide an overall thermal resistance of about R-12. |
|
Energy EfficiencyPerfect Panel Systems' wall panels have an true R value of R-4 per inch (average PPS wall system is R-20). |
Sound ResistanceWalls easily transmit loud noises inside. |
|
Sound ResistancePerfect Panel Systems' wall panels are up to 3X more sound resistant, giving your family the peace and quiet they deserve. |
Indoor Air QualityAllows easy passage of outdoor dust and pollen inside. |
|
Indoor Air QualityPerfect Panel Systems' wall panels feature an impenetrable wall surface, preventing the passage of airborne particles like dust and pollen. The air inside a Perfect Panel Systems' home not only feels fresher, it is also cleaner. |
Fire ResistanceWood frame walls can have a fire resistance of just minutes. |
|
Fire ResistancePerfect Panel Systems' wall panels are made of non-combustible steel studs and inert EPS foam. |
Wind ResistanceWood frame walls can buckle under high winds caused by hurricanes and tornadoes. |
|
Wind ResistanceUp to 8.5 times stronger than a conventional wood-framed wall, Perfect Panel Systems' wall panels are much better able to withstand the damaging effects brought on by strong winds. |
Mold ResistanceMildew and mold find wood an ideal breeding ground for their spores. |
|
Mold ResistanceWith no gaps inside the walls where moisture can collect, mold and mildew growth can't get a foothold as they can with wood-framed walls. |
Higher MaintenanceOver time, wood frame homes can be expensive to maintain due to their organic character. |
|
Lasting ValueWith Perfect Panel Systems you receive state-of-the-art building technology that continues to pay back throughout the lifetime of the home. |
Heavier WeightThe weight of wood construction could cause breakdown of foundation walls and footings. The weight for wood construction would be 5lbs/sq ft or 2.3 kg/sq ft. |
|
Light WeightThe wall system is made of light weight material which will preserve the foundation walls and footings. The weight for Perfect Panel Systems' walls is 2lbs/sq ft or 0.9kg/sq ft. |
