manufactured vs. modular
Hart Housing manufactures three separate series of homes:
Single section
Multi-Sectional
Modular
Both Manufactured and Modular homes are built in a climate-controlled
manufacturing facility. This provides minimal weather exposure to the materials
and components along with the efficiency of factory assembly technology. As your
home travels through the manufacturing facility it is inspected from beginning
to end to insure quality consistency. Enjoy the benefits of a manufactured home;
work is never delayed by weather or contractors which reduces construction time
start to finish.
Single and Multi-Sectional Manufactured Home Code:
Constructed to the building standards of the Federal Manufactured Home
Construction Safety Standards. This code governs how manufactured homes are
constructed, specific standards that must be met on the quality and durability,
safety, structural design, electrical, plumbing and energy efficiency of the
home. This code also defines the requirements for transportation and system
design. Single and multi-sectional homes are all manufactured with and shipped
on a permanent steel chassis.
Modular Code:
Construction of a Modular home is based on the same codes as site-built home.
Various building codes set forth by local government and state requirements in
which the home will be located, to include National Electrical Code (NEC),
International Residential Code (IRC) and the Uniform Building Code. Home is
transported on a Carrier; home is then taken off of carrier and transferred onto
a foundation.
Hart Housing uses quality structural components and amenities while providing
exceptional value for the consumer for a safe and sound investment. We pride
ourselves in offering a full line of floor plans to meet the needs of today’s
family living and life styles.
