How does EcoLogic Spray Foam compare to ICF's (Insulated Concrete Forms)?
ICF's share many of the same advantages as EcoLogic Spray Foam. They both create energy efficient walls by forming a completely sealed thermal air barrier, forming a solid wall and a quieter building. However, ICF's are more time consuming and costly to use over EcoLogic Spray Foam. They require changes in the structure of the building, therefore disrupting building schedules and adding to the overall cost of the initial building. ICF block walls are typically eleven to thirteen inches thick decreasing your living space. EcoLogic Spray Foam maximizes your living space, adding to your overall comfort while minimizing your building costs.
The initial cost of insulating and sealing your building with EcoLogic Spray Foam will add 4-6 percent to the total cost of a new home building project. That cost will be offset by the added value of your building coupled with the amount of money you will save monthly on your energy equipment and heating and cooling bills. Additionally, there are several government and utility programs created to help you with the cost of insulation upgrades. With the rising cost of energy in these uncertain times, the savings could add up to hundreds of dollars a month on your utility bills.
