Which material is used to enclose the space from the bottom of the manufactured home to the ground?

Skirting is the material specifically designed to enclose the space between the bottom of a manufactured home and the ground. This enclosure serves several important functions, including providing insulation against temperature changes, preventing drafts, and enhancing the home’s aesthetic appeal. It also helps to prevent animals from nesting or accessing the undercarriage of the home, which can lead to potential damage.

The other terms refer to different aspects related to manufactured homes. A perimeter marriage band is typically used to secure the two halves of a double-wide home together at the point where they are joined. Perimeter enclosement could refer generally to enclosing an area but is not a standard term specifically pertaining to the manufactured home industry like skirting is. Grade level relates to the ground's elevation around the home and doesn’t specifically denote the material used for enclosing the space beneath the home.
