Let’s talk about energy efficiency first.
For many years, ICF experts talked about “performance R-Value.” The actual, real-world
performance of an ICF wall far exceeds its nominal insulation value. This is due to a
combination of three factors more insulation, less air infiltration, and high mass walls.
Rated. Continuous R-Values:
EPS foam, from which ICFs are made,   one of the best insulating materials i t invented.
he R in “R-Value” stands for thermal assistance, and the higher the Value, the better the
wall is at p opping the flow of heat.
faomes built using traditional CMU Instr uction typically have exterior alls rated
between R-8 and R-12. oF walls, on the other hand, have foam with tested insulation
values R-22 upto R-40.
with ICFs, the owner is assured of continuous insulation without gaps installation
mistakes.
