Manzanita Homes - Energy Star Green

Modulex’s eco-energy POLAR THERMO-PLUS system has developed into a new generation of “super homes” with superior air-tightness, insulation, and structural strength capable of withstanding temperatures ranging from -70ºC to 40ºC (Celcius) or -94°F to 104°F ( Fahrenheit). This system can also be adapted to create a “passive home,” i.e., one that uses very little energy.

In addition to using soundproof, eco-friendly materials renowned for their sturdiness, energy efficiency, and health & safety benefits, the POLAR THERMO-PLUS system uses the following triple barrier to eliminate thermal bridges:

Thermal barrier
Insulating barrier
Soundproofing barrier

Rim joist (R-47.5 or RSI-8.36) and ground floor walls (R-49.5 or RSI-8.72)

Rim joist (R-47.5 or RSI-8.36) and second floor walls (R-49.5 or RSI-8.72)

Roof (R-48.5 or RSI-8.51) Modulex POLAR THERMO-PLUS system (R-145 or RSI-25.5)

This exclusive Modulex system has a total insulation rating of R-145 or RSI-25.5 (R-48.5 or RSI-8.51 for the roof, R-49.5 or RSI-8.72 for the walls, and R-47.5 or RSI-8.36 for the floor rim
