Cost Savings

Since it is bug / fungus / mold free, fire resistant and water resistant, the DragonBoard construction may reduce the level of termite insurance, fire insurance and water damage insurance premiums.

*Cost Savings are based on 2005 National Construction Estimator. It may vary in other areas.
