What makes a Palm Harbor
home strong enough to
weather the storm?
Q:
A:
At Palm Harbor, we
build our manufactured
and modular homes in
centralized building centers
and then transport them at
55mph down the freeway
to our homeowners’ home
sites. Then, the home
sections are often lifted by
crane and swung into place.
To ensure that our homes
endure this transport stress
and still deliver superior energy efficiency, 100%
customer satisfaction and the strength needed to
endure destructive weather, our homes must be
designed, engineered and built to a higher standard.
Consequently, our homes typically weigh significantly
more than same-sized site-built home. And the
differences are in the details.
Here are a few examples:
1) Engineering
Each of our manufactured
and modular homes is
engineered for maximum
strength, energy efficiency
and wind zone protection,
typically exceeding state
and Federal building
requirements.
