Homes built with
PolySteel are enjoying as much as
80% savings on heating and cooling
costs. We used a 60% factor for
our calculations. |
To see the whole
picture, it is important to compare
monthly dollar amounts of costs between
conventional framing and PolySteel. At
the end of the first year, costs
incurred with PolySteel are $586.92 more
(item (2) creates the additional down
payment amount) than conventional
framing. However, by the second year,
savings are more than $346 and with each
year that follows, savings will likely
increase due to rising utility costs.
By building with PolySteel, it is
possible that during your mortgage
period your utility savings could be
more than $10,000. What a comfort to build
a quiet, safe home and enjoy such
tremendous energy savings at the same
time! |
