Savings & Value
Cost-Effective Construction
• PolySteel forms are easy to install, which saves valuable construction time.
"This has been my first experience (with PolySteel) as a construction worker... You said these went up easy, but I never figured we would put them up as fast as we did.  The neighbors went away for the weekend on a Friday evening, and came home Sunday and there was a basement!"
        -- Linda Mines, Hot Springs, SD
• PolySteel homes typically appraise higher than wood framed homes.

"For a house half the size of our PolySteel house our neighbors are paying over double in natural gas bills." 
          --Tom S. Nickel, Billings, MT
Ongoing Savings
• On average, the monthly energy costs of a PolySteel home are 80% lower per square foot than that of a typical wood-frame home.
• Walls made of PolySteel perform like a wood frame wall constructed for R-30 insulation.
• PolySteel's high insulation value may qualify you for additional energy credits.
• The reduced fire risk in PolySteel homes can also reduce insurance costs.
Check out this energy savings chart for the amount you will save in heating and cooling.
Increased Home Value
• A recent study conducted for the EPA Energy Star Homes Program concludes that home value increases by about $20 for every $1 reduction in annual utility bills.  The implication of these findings for home buyers is that they can profit by investing in energy efficient homes even if they are uncertain about how long they might stay in the home.  They will enjoy positive cash flow for as long as they live in their home and can also expect to recover their investment in energy efficiency when they sell their home.  Visit the Residential Energy Service Network website for more details.
