Protect Your Family and Investment ICF
Why ICF Matters
Storm Resilience ICF houses are designed to withstand hurricanes and extreme weather, providing safety for families in vulnerable coastal areas.
Energy Efficiency Lower energy bills due to superior insulation.
Long-Term Value Durable, low maintenance, and enhanced resale value.
Hurricane and Tornado Resistant
Insulating Concrete Forms create a seamless solid concrete wall that is 10 times stronger than wood framed structures.
A study conducted by Texas Tech University proves that walls built with Insulating Concrete Forms (ICFs) withstand the damage and projectiles launched by tornado and hurricane strength winds.
ICF structures have been tested to wind speeds in excess of 250 MPH.
Energy Efficient
Stable room temperatures; no hot spots, no cold drafts.
75% less outside air infiltrates an ICF home; greatly reducing pollen, allergens, and dust.
80% of ICF home owners mention comfort as the best benefit compared to 22% of wood frame home owners.
Fire Resistant
In fire wall tests, ICFs stood exposure to intense flame without structural failure longer than did common frame walls. The extremely low flame spread and smoke development make ICF walls safer from the hazards of fire.
ICF Saferooms
ICF Safe Rooms are a completely sealed, temperature controlled, comfortable, dry, and safe place to protect your family during a disaster. Add an ICF safe room to existing homes or new construction
Termite and Bug Resistant
Termites cause substantial damage each year in unprotected homes. One advantage of building with ICF is that the structure of the ICF foundation or wall will not be affected by termites, unlike wood-framed homes.
