Not sure how they are actually constructed, but I know about the typical design. Liquid nitrogen containers, because they contain a liquid below 77K, have to be thermally isolated from the outside air or face the possibility of vaporizing from the influx of heat. They do this by using two concentric metal tanks. In between the two tanks is a gap that is evacuated (pumped out) so that there is almost no air in between them. Since you need matter to conduct heat, the vacuum between the two tanks prevents heat flow. There are obviously mounts that connect the two tanks to each other. I know that in some models snazzy models they use insulating polymer rods, I have also heard of people using ceramic mounts to mount the inner tank. I've never disected one so I am not exactly sure.

Is refinancing new modular homes hard?

Modular homes are constructed like conventional homes except they are constructed in a factory setting and they are better that conventional homes because they are stronger, more energy efficient, less expensive and they require less time for construction. They are transported in large modules and then they are assembled on a custom permanent foundation. So, they are financed and refinanced like conventional homes.
