Insulating Concrete Form Home in Urban Chicago

ICF Home in Chicago
The Sam Park and Mary Raines Residence in Chicago, IL is an interesting project. It is 5,550 sq ft of Reward Wall Systems Insulated Concrete Forms, constructed in a very narrow lot. This project was conducted by industry newcomer Cian O’Mahony with Leitrim and Mani, LLC. Cian received onsite training from Darryl U, our Product Application Specialist. With use of this service and Cian’s willingness to learn, this project was a great success in revitalizing the neighborhood and spurring further developments.
Cian said that he was a bit nervous to use a product that he knew little about, but after he got comfortable it became his construction method of choice because of the ease of installation, comfortable jobsite conditions, significant labor savings due to our 5 in 1 assembly process, and the overall energy efficiency of the walls. By the looks of the pictures, I think Cian got the hang of it.
