Wall Features
GRANVILLE’S ADVANCED WALL SYSTEM integrates 2×6 studs in exterior walls to provide a substantially larger insulation area. This results in a more comfortable home with lower energy costs than other builders’ homes that use 2×4 studs. This is just one of the hidden features that allows every Granville Eco-Smart home to out-perform the competition.
