Scott Morgan visits the Behind The Walls House. On this tour we look at how the house was built with structural insulated panels and engineered wood.
We then visit the Energy Efficient Home, which highlights energy-efficiency such as blown insulation, insulated windows (Andersen) and a Carrier heat pump. Next, Steve Greenberg shows how a modular home (Genesis) was built on the show floor, and Barbara Sloan looks at the use of steel (Steel Framing) and cedar (International Homes of Cedar) in home building.
