The Modular Difference

We Believe You Should Get More for Your Money

A manufactured home is built indoors in a factory-like setting. The finished product is covered and transported to its new location, and assembled there. A manufactured home is simply a home that is built off-site, rather than on-site.

All Kent Homes are built to industry EnerGuide 83 (E-83) Standards:

  • Lower heating bills every month

  • Bigger & better Low E & Argon windows

  • Comfortable living year round with a heat pump

  • Low maintenance costs

  • Enhanced and controlled air quality

                   

Tight Construction

  • Built in a controlled environment free from weather elements

  • 6 mil vapour barrier ensures continuous, completely sealed envelope

  • Floor sheathing glued and screwed to floor joists

  • Acoustical sealant between walls, floor & roof eliminates air leakage

  • Insulated electrical boxes complete with vapour barrier on exterior walls

 

Structurally Sound

  • Kiln dried lumber with 19% moisture content or less

  • 2x3 cross bridging between floor joists

  • Double perimeter floor joists

  • Pre-Engineered roof trusses

 

Insulation Techniques

  • Fiberglass insulation installed from the outside eliminates air gaps on the cold side of the insulation

  • Insulating the roof from the outside in before sheathing is installed guarantees the best coverage

 

Kent Homes Standards

  • Exterior walls at 24" on center reduces thermal bridging

  • Tarred and nailed roof shingles
