Effective Strategies to Insulate Block Walls
Improv­ing the insu­la­tion of block walls sig­nif­i­cant­ly enhances ener­gy effi­cien­cy, com­fort, and dura­bil­i­ty in both res­i­den­tial and com­mer­cial spaces. Block walls, often made of con­crete mason­ry units (CMUs), are stur­dy but noto­ri­ous­ly poor at retain­ing heat with­out prop­er insu­la­tion.

TWO ON FIRST TERRACED HOUSE
Old Town Scotts­dale is a his­toric down­town area, once known for cowboy-Western shops and art gal­leries, that is now expe­ri­enc­ing a remod­ern­iza­tion and revi­tal­iza­tion. In a class of its own, this mul­ti­mil­lion-dol­lar, mod­ern two-home mas­ter­piece com­ple­ments the near­by down­town and arts dis­trict. These lux­u­ry walk-ups pay homage to ear­ly urban Mediter­ranean archi­tec­ture with all the sophis­ti­ca­tion of the 21st cen­tu­ry.

Can I leave Fox Blocks forms exposed to ultraviolet rays for an extended period (months)?
Yes, but you will notice a light dust­ing on the sur­face and a yel­low­ing dis­col­oration of the forms. This does not indi­cate any detri­men­tal effects to the ICFs. We do sug­gest, that if the exte­ri­or fin­ish is not going to be installed with­in around a 3 month peri­od or more, the forms be pro­tect­ed from UV rays by installing a tem­po­rary build­ing wrap type mate­r­i­al. The pow­dery film must be removed with soap and water before the appli­ca­tion of a syn­thet­ic stuc­co fin­ish or water­proof­ing mem­brane.
