S.C.I.P.'S. - FAQ PDF Print E-mail

In order for us to rebuild America we must become smarter on how we build. Smart Living Homes believes in using recycled materials, implementing renewable energy and adapting green efficient technologies in an ideal way to achieve this objective. The core solution to build America this way is by using Structural Concrete Insulated Panels or SCIPS.

S.C.I.P.’s consist of a recycled expanded polystyrene foam insulation core enclosed using recycled 3/16” reinforced steel while integrating a “W” truss system for each panel produced. Once installed, these panels and structural beams are encased using pneumatically applied fiber reinforced 4000+ psi rated concrete similar to shot Crete. An additive called "Kalmatron" is blended into the mix to achieve a virtual waterproof system as well as adding strength.

Listed below are just a few of the achieved benefits when building with SCIPS:

Affordable Cost To Build - Same or Less Cost Compared To Conventional Building

• R-40 + Value In All Exterior Walls and Roof = High Energy Efficiency Achieved

• “Fire Proof" Due To “No Wood” Used In Construction

• “Fluid Stone” - Interior & Exterior Finish “No Drywall” Used = No Mold or Mildew Issues

• Low-E Dual-Pane Windows Installed In Every Structure

• No Termite Damage To Eaves & Walls Because We Use No Wood

• “PEX” Plumbing Manifold System Installed in Every Home- No Copper Piping

• Roof Is Already Finished; Decorative Tiles or Metal Only Used For Finished Look

• S.C.I.P. Panels Have An STC Rating of 50+ For High Sound Proofing Benefits

• “Smart Room”™ - Located In Each Home For Easy Access and Control & Monitoring

• Solar Panel System Installed In Every Home- Provides All Power Needed For Home

• Wind resistant Up To 200+ MPH & Seismic Rating of 8.3
