About ICF
Construction
(Insulated Concrete Forms)
When building a
home in Colorado, energy efficiency is an important consideration.
A home constructed with ICFs provides numerous advantages when
compared to conventional wood construction.
Advantages of ICF Construction:
- Energy
consumption reduction and cost savings of 30-70%
- More resistant
to extreme weather conditions than wood
- Maintains a more
consistent indoor temperature
- Filtration of
dust and allergens from the outside is reduced by 75%
- Outside noise
reduction of up to three times that of a wood-frame home
- Environmentally
sensible material saves at least 10 trees per home
What does an ICF
home look like?
Finished structures
constructed with ICFs are indistinguishable from their
traditionally-framed counterparts. ICF construction can be used
to build virtually all home designs, and its uniform exterior
can be clad with brick, siding, or shingles.
