How will the Exterior andInterior of my new

Commodore Home look?

How will my new home be constructed?

(specific to manufactured homes built tofederal HUD code)

Feature: All homes are built flat and square on a level “table”.

Benefit: Building a home flat and square on a level “table” helps insure the home will set level on either a foundation or basement.

Feature: All homes are built with DOUBLE RIM JOISTS around the entire floor which creates (4) JOISTSat the center line. Double Rim Joists are glued and nailed together for extra strength and the floor is built using GRADED LUMBER.Benefit: Double Rim Joists create a much stronger floor system that is superior to a single rim joist system with only (2) center line joists.

Graded lumber is important because it has a lower moisture content and fewer knots than non-graded lumber. Lower moisture helps eliminate warping and fewer knots create stronger lumber.

Feature: Aluminum heat ducts are wrapped in fiberglass insulation.

Benefit: Wrapping in insulation helps eliminate radiant heat loss and creates a Whisper Quiet air flow.

Feature: 6” Insulated ducts (with an R-Value of 4.2) carry air to the perimeter of the home.

Benefit: Insulated ducts carry air from the main duct to the sidewall registers. R-4.2 helps eliminate heat loss. Perimeter registers eliminate registers in the center of the floor.

3/4” Tongue and Groove O.S.B. Floor

Feature: 3/4” tongue and groove O.S.B. floor with sanded seams

Benefit: A 3/4” tongue and groove O.S.B. floor is one of the strongest, most durable decking materials available.

2x6 Wall

R-19 Insulation(R-21 Optional)

Feature: 2x6 sidewalls with R-19 insulation. (Opt. R-21)Benefit: 2x6 sidewalls have more depth than 2x4

walls and add strength. They allow the use of R-19 or R-21 insulation instead of R-11.

Feature: 2x4 center walls and interior wallsBenefit: Superior to 2x3 studs because 2x4 lumber

adds an extra inch of support to the home.

Feature: Triple headers over all patio doors and large windows.

Benefit: Creates a very strong support header and an extra strong window or patio door opening.

Feature: All walls wrapped in O.S.B.-glued & nailed Benefit: O.S.B. increases sidewall strength and helps create a very sturdy home. Our homes often weigh over 80,000 pounds

Feature: Optional 2x4 hinged, truss rafters w/ blown insulation and attic baffles. (2x3 non-hinge rafter is standard)

Benefit: Very strong rafter that has either a 5/12 or 7/12 roof pitch. Blown insulation eliminates gaps in insulation & reduces energy costs. Baffles create air flow that cools the roof and helps eliminate potential ice build up. (Baffles are standard in all roofs.)

Feature O.S.B. roof deckingBenefit: Very strong and durable decking. A solid

foundation for a quality roof system.

Feature: Optional 30 Year Dimensional Shingles with Full Length Ridge Vent. (25 yr. shingle w/ridge vent is standard) Benefit: Gives a Dimensional appearance to the roof and is very dependable. The full length ridge vent creates a superior flow of air into the roof cavity.

Full Length Ridge Vent

LVL BEAM

Feature: Laminated Veneer Lumber at ceiling spansBenefit: L.V.L. beams at ceiling spans help insure “Rock Solid” openings with great stability. L.V..L. beams are 2.5 times stronger than conventional lumber.

Feature: Optional Weather wrap on all exterior wallsBenefit: Weather wrap helps eliminate air infiltration and

saves energy.
