Zero Energy Homes

Here are 3 reasons ICF construction contributes to zero energy homes.

  1. Airtight walls minimize drafts and vapor flow

  2. Expanded polystyrene insulation creates a thermal break that minimizes heat loss during the winter and heat gain during the summer

  3. Concrete core is a thermal mass that stores energy
