Buying a new manufactured home is both a smart and wise investment. You have assurances of quality from the federal government under the U.S. Housing and Urban Development construction standards program (implemented in 1976 to regulate the factory construction of every manufactured home built in America). This code assures the home buyer that a home constructed in California, or anywhere in the country, is covered by this strict code that supersedes all state and local regulations.

This code covers design and construction regulations such as strength, durability, fire resistance and energy efficiency, plus heating, plumbing, air conditioning and electrical systems. 



Floor Plan of Two Story Model TS-7

Definitions    

Factory construction creates better value for the home buyer. The key to building high-quality homes is having a well trained, stable work force in a factory setting. There are no independent, uncontrolled, expensive subcontractors. As new methods and technologies improve how the homes are built, worker training can be accomplished easily within the worker groups on the factory floor.

Workers use sophisticated cutting and fastening machinery to ensure accurate, strong assembly. Large items such as roofing structures and walls can be pre-assembled, then placed accurately in position with overhead cranes. In-house shops pre-build kitchen and bathroom cabinets that are done on time and fit right on the first try.

A comprehensive quality inspection process guarantees that value is into every home at each step.

Bringing all the advantages of factory construction together makes it easier to maintain higher and more consistent quality in the building of manufactured homes and at a much lower cost than be done with site-built homes.

The manufactured home begins on a computer, using the latest software technology, assuring that the construction plan is designed and features and elements are perfect in every detail. Factories are able to buy materials in much larger quantities than site-builders, thus providing an enormous savings. In the climate controlled environment of the factory, builders are able to produce anywhere from 30 to 40 manufactured homes in a single week. Without weather delays the factory establishes a steady flow of efficiency that enables work to progress from start to finish uninterrupted. This translates to quality in the final product.

Materials are exactly the same as site-builders use. Same national brands, same dimensional lumber. If fact, you'll find that most building innovations were first used in a manufactured home factory. The major factory assembly line approach cuts construction costs by 20% on each unit. HUD standards of heating and cooling are quite rigid, and mean that each unit will be properly insulated, no matter in what climate zone that home may be placed. The walls are moved around by automated cranes, and as the wall is properly placed, the ceiling is also attached, providing for an air tight fit.

Because every movement in the factory is orchestrated for a specific reason, the efficiency level is extremely high. Because of these efficiencies, manufactured housing costs about one half what the conventional site-built home cost with same square footage and amenities. From the floor plan, to completion, including all integrated parts, such as wiring, insulation, to the exterior siding, are done in a matter of days in a carefully controlled work process.

Many standards applied to manufactured housing builders are unheard of in site-built construction. Quality is equal to, or greater than, some commercial buildings. Teams of quality control personnel are in constant contact with the construction process to insure that the job is done right the first time. In quality, energy efficiency, and value, manufactured homes are the new era of single family housing.
