COMFORT & QUIET
Comfort & Quiet
ARXX homeowners consistently tell us that their new home is the most comfortable they’ve ever lived in. Because ARXX helps keep out the drafts and the noise, and keeps the house at a more stable temperature, people just feel better, every day – something that’s hard to put a price tag on.
See some homeowner comments below or see case studies in our Project Gallery.
“A quick note about ARXX products. On April 27, 2011 my house took a direct hit from an EF-5 tornado in Harvest, Alabama. Winds were clocked at 210 mph. I built the house using ARXX ICF forms from the basement to the top plate of the first floor. Every stick lumber home around my place is 50% to 100% destroyed. My house sustained damage to the the shingles, soffit, gutters and down spouts. The super structure of the house is intact with no damage. Thanks for your products.”
EF-5 Tornado Survivor, ARXX Homeowner
“When you’re in our home you can’t believe the difference, even though it looks like any other house. We heat for a fraction of the cost. It’s cooler in the summer, warmer in the winter, and we never hear the wind howling outside.”
Gail Healy, Arxx Homeowner
“When Hurricane Charley passed right over our home – I felt totally safe – you could not even hear the 150 mph winds outside. I wanted to build the best home I could. And I did!”
Chuck Taylor, Arxx Homeowner
“With the high winds that we experience in our area, we can see the trees moving outside but we can’t hear or feel a thing. It’s just quiet, cozy and comfortable.”
Chris & Jamie Roblin, Arxx Homeowners
“If I could use one word to describe my Arxx home it would be comfort – my home is so quiet, and so comfortable inside – it’s just great!”
Steve Lenzmeier, Arxx Homeowner
Shaftsbury
The Shaftsbury project is located in the busy metropolis of Toronto and is less than 200 ft from a major railway line. Superior sound suppression was a major consideration when selecting ARXX ICFs for this project. There is a city bylaw that requires a minimum STC of 70. Building with ARXX ICF allowed the owners to actually exceed the minimum code requirement, ultimately achieving an STC rating of 71.
