Simply put, the HUD code is a nationally recognized building code. When your home has the HUD code seal attached to its exterior then it meets the regional standards for roof load, wind resistance, thermal efficiency, safety and durability. Manufactured homes are the only homes....factory manufactured or site built....that meet the federal governments stringent regulations.

The HUD code became a federal law in 1976 and has two parts. One a construction standard and the second is regulatory part or stipulating who watches over to make sure the home is built right.
