FAQs
About Modular Homes
What
is a systems built modular home?
Ritz-Craft modular homes are constructed in a climate controlled environment
using state of the art engineering and assembly line techniques. Ritz-Craft
uses the same brand name building materials and builds to the same
building code requirements as any local "stick builder". State or
independent third party inspectors carefully inspect each home we
build. Modular homes are shipped to the building site on two or more
carriers, erected on the foundation by a qualified set crew and completed
by an established Ritz-Craft builder/dealer. The builder/dealer is
an independent business entity, not an agent of Ritz-Craft Corporation.
Once completed, modular homes are indistinguishable from "site built"
homes.
How does a Ritz-Craft modular home differ from a "manufactured
or mobile home"?
Manufactured homes, sometimes referred to as mobile homes, are built
to the HUD Code, a national code for manufactured housing. The HUD
Code, unlike conventional state building codes used by modular home
manufacturers and site builders, requires manufactured homes to be
built on non-removable steel chassis. Many neighborhoods exclude manufactured
homes but accept modular homes because they are built to the same
code as site-built homes.
Are Ritz-Craft modular homes energy efficient?
Yes. Ritz-Craft is an ENERGY STAR® partner and committed
to using energy efficient building methods and materials. Our homes
are built standard with 2" x 6" exterior walls and R-19 insulation,
R-30 blown-in ceiling insulation, warm edge thermopane low-e glass
windows, and insulated exterior doors. |
