I agree 100%! Why spend on average $250 for a 4x8 sip panel and then fur out the inside and outside just to make the interior a little bit more airtight? Now your tiny house heating bill goes from approximately $10 a month to 8 per month. Your payback for the extra costs of building with sips would probably be about 75 years lol! If I could find a sip panel with plywood on one side and something like lp smartside on the exterior so after I set my panels I'd be done with framing, insulating and finish work, I'd probably be onboard with the idea but not with the labor intensive method shown in this video.
@@Steve-cn5up You can be done with framing once the SIPs are installed. I don't know why these guys chose to add furring, but it's not necessary - although they didn't explain why, and it might be necessary .. lol. Even SIPs made of pressure treated lumber designed for basements don't need furring.

Finding SIPS where I live is like looking for hens teeth. I'm not crazy about particleboard but the insulation level looks good on this build.
Awesome video, I've wanted to build with sips for years and wanted to do a tiny house for just as long. I'm going to build one with sips now 👍
How did it work out?
Yeah I want to know how it works
Hello, nice Job !
How do you fix SIP on the trailer ?
Thank you for sharing.
What are the furring strips for?
How is this structure bolted to the trailer?
I'm looking to build a tiny house between 21/24 SQM. Would you do to my specifications? Thanks.
Why the subfloor insulation when the sip floor panels have good r value. Is subfloor insulation just moisture protection from below maby.
Well, I guess this isn't a one-person project
Well damn, why don’t you do a proper job of it 🤣🤣
Awesome build, not a beat missed 👏🏼 🙌🏼
Why the foam layer as a subfloor under the floor sips panel
Totally agree. There is no use for the foam and then the sip floor.
maybe they want a warmer floor without adding height. :)
I don't understand the concept Sips if you can't finish wall's in one step...might as well do it in 2 by 5

@@Steve-cn5up I've done a lot of research. Not sure what company does that, but they do use smartside on the outside.
@@marlaplunk2833 They just took another 4+ " from the interior space. Totally not necessary to use the furring strips
Can I order a tiny house shell from this company? Is this company still in business?
