Panelized walls are pre-engineered wall panels customized to fit any home style. Because the panels are constructed in a factory with a controlled environment, the panels are never subject to adverse weather conditions, preventing the wood from warping or shrinkage. Additionally, the walls are comprised of recycled wood and they produce little to no "scrap," making them environmentally friendly.

The condensed time it takes to build a panelized home is another facet of building that impacts the overall outcome of the build. Panelized walls come packaged with labels and instructions such as "wall B2 joins wall B3." This method makes production move smoothly and quickly, resulting in saving time and money.

Having a pool to cool off and relax in is a luxury that is especially nice during these hot summer months. But, like most luxuries in life, time, energy, and money must be put into owning a pool. One of the costs associated with having a pool is the money it takes to heat a pool. If you are interested in swimming in your pool after the sun goes down or during cooler months, heating your pool is a viable option to consider. Check out some information about how solar hot water collectors can heat your pool. How does it work? Pool water gets pumped through a filter into a solar hot water collector. Solar hot water collectors are thin and generally mounted on a roof. Thin pipes of water then run through the collector. When the sun's rays hit the collector, they heat the running water inside.
