What are SIPS? “Structural insulated panels (SIPs) are high performance building panels used in floors, walls, and roofs for residential and light commercial buildings. The panels are typically made by sandwiching a core of rigid foam plastic insulation between two structural skins of oriented strand board (OSB). Other skin material can be used for specific purposes. SIPs are manufactured under factory controlled conditions and can be custom designed for each home. The result is a building system that is extremely strong, energy efficient and cost effective. Building with SIPs will save you time, money and labor.” For More Information on SIPS Contact Us or visit www.sips.org.

Testimonial from our Customer:
“Hey Danesh, On April 13, at 2 am, we had a gravity wave go thru with 60-80 MPH straight line winds. It blew over five large pine trees on my property, with three of them hitting our new ICF home. One of the trees hit the corner of our home and went through the roof. It was right over …’s bed room. It hit so hard that it broke all the filaments in the light bulbs in the attic. When it went through the roof and hit the ICF wall it bounced off the house. I am sure it would have tore down the wall and hit … as he slept, if it was not for the ICF. Thank you for building a superior home and keeping my family safe.” – The Long Family

Introduction
Truseal Insulation is proud to offer the North Alabama Region, foam insulation, the Superior Insulation.
We offer two types of foam insulation, so that we may provide the best for attaining superior comfort and at the same time it enables us to better serve the uniqueness of each project.
Our Types of Foam:
- Open Cell Foam – R value of 3.8 (per inch), Great Sound Absorption
- Closed Cell Foam – R value of 7 (per inch), Great Structural Strength Enhancer
The Benefits of Foam Insulation are many:
- Completely Air Seals
- Fills all voids, seams, and conforms to the structural design
- Prevents condensation in walls due to air transfer
- Does not support mold growth
- Creates a more stable climate in the home/building – no cold/hot spots
- Seals so no air transfer which leads to dust, poor air quality, and pests entering home
- Acts as a sound barrier (better sound absorption qualities in open cell foam)
- Structural support (higher strength in closed cell foam)
- Helps preserve the Environment
- Improves Energy Efficiency
- Foams are water blown or soy based foams = Healthier foams
- Lowers size of HVAC unit

Safety
Building with NUDURA Insulated Concrete Forms provides a variety of benefits over traditional stick frame homes. The need for more efficient and safer homes is important for you and your family. An ICF House vs. Wood from NUDURA will provide greater safety, greater energy efficiency and a healthy home for you and your family. NUDURA provides a concrete wall with varying ICF form thicknesses from 4 inches to 12 inches of concrete to meet any building type. When compared to a typical wood frame wall that is comprised of 2X4’s and bat insulation the advantage of building an icf house vs wood is far superior.
SAFETY FOR YOUR FAMILY
NUDURA offers your family maximum safety with a fire protection rating of up to 4 hours. With a NUDURA Insulated concrete form house, walls are built with steel reinforced concrete and a non-toxic fire retardant expanded polystyrene foam ensuring maximum safety. NUDURA Insulated Concrete Forms provide greater impact resistance and will withstand winds of up to 402 kph (250 mph) ensuring that your family and home are safe and secure in almost any situation. The strength of the NUDURA wall comes from the solid concrete core.
“This ICF home withstood an F4 tornado which raked through Arkansas in January, 1999. Winds up to 200mph caused relatively minor damage to the home, while all other homes in the path of the tornado were shattered beyond repair.”

A Safe Room Can Save Your Life
The Federal Emergency Management Agency and state emergency management officials urge homeowners and home builders to consider adding a Safe Room to new homes being built or when remodeling existing homes. Emergency experts agree that a family can survive high winds and wind-borne debris with little or no injury with a Safe Room, effectively giving your house and your family a “suit of armor.” Safe Rooms have proven effective against hurricane-force winds as well as tornadic winds. FEMA, in cooperation with the Wind Engineering Research Center of Texas Tech University, developed designs for wind shelters that provide protection against winds of up to 250 miles per hour and windborne debris traveling at 100 miles an hour. Safe Rooms can be built for about the cost of remodeling a bathroom. A Safe Room is anchored to the ground to withstand extreme winds and strengthened with steel-reinforced concrete or steel sheathing to make the walls and ceiling virtually puncture-proof. A Safe Room made with ICF adds an extra layer of protection. ICF provides solid wall construction without any voids that may result from cinderblock construction. Construction plans are available from Stonecraft Construction. Please call 256-509-3800 for consultation. FEMA has also produced a booklet, Taking Shelter From the Storm: Building a Safe Room Inside Your House, FEMA Publication 320. It is available by calling 1-888-565-3896. The text and diagrams are also is available on the FEMA Web site.
