Default Insulating Concrete Forms (ICFs)

Were they using ICFs to build the new homes?

Insulating Concrete Forms (ICFs) have been in used in the Northeast for several years. We are living in a five year old home of my own design that has a foundation built using ICFs.

Using ICFs reduces labor and adds insulation.

I know a fellow here in our town who used ICFs to pour the foundation and walls of his new home.

Check out this ICF website.
