Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs)
After months of research Rempel Bros. Concrete has entered the ICF
(insulated concrete form) market as the one-stop shop for concrete
construction. Customers are now able to purchase not only the
quality concrete Rempel produces, and the professional pumping services
of Challenge Concrete Pumping;
but also a comprehensive forming system versatile enough to handle
any job from residential homes, foundation
to the roof, to commercial tilt up warehouses with minimal fuss and
experience.
ECO-Block ICFs
After investigating several potential sources of
ICF, Rempel has chosen ECO-Block as
their working partner. Offering coast-to-coast production capabilities,
a comprehensive product
line that includes integrated bracing/scaffolding and great customer
service, ECO-Block was the perfect match for Rempel's corporate
values.
Healthy Homes
Due to our diverse northern climate with long winters
and hot, muggy summers, Canadians spend a lot of time indoors.
Natural and man-made pollutants affect the quality of the indoor
air that
we
breathe. Some well known offenders include mould and mildew typically
found in traditional wall systems and poorly filtered forced air
heating systems that circulate dust in the home.
This healthier
home is designed with a proper air filtration and fresh air exchange
system, in-floor radiant heating and superior insulated walls.
Heating and cooling bills will be much less than you'd expect. Drafts
will be virtually eliminated and carbon dioxide emissions from
your heating unit will be greatly reduced.
Commercial
Building Incentive Program (CBIP)
Environmentally
conscious homebuyers and builders who want to make a difference
for future
generations, now have a responsible alternative for new home
construction. Natural Resources Canada offers a financial incentive
for building
owners
whose designs meet the Commercial
Building Incentive Program (CBIP) requirements.
It is expected
that ICF will explode onto the residential market as contractors
become familiar with the potential labour savings
of the system and homeowners become familiar with the comfort and
peace of mind that comes with to the roof concrete
construction.
