A REAL LIFE PHOTO of Polysteel put to the test

Polysteel Forms® are the most advanced and most user-friendly EPS (expanded polystyrene) forms for concrete available. The forms are manufactured by American Polysteel® Forms, manufacturer of EPS forms since 1978. Every form has five galvanized steel furring strips on each side to enable builders to attach any type of interior or exterior wall covering desired. These galvanized strips are attached to expanded steel cross members, which act as form ties and result in a form that is the strongest and most versatile stay-in-place concrete form available. With the furring strips going all the way to the outside of the form, it makes these forms able to stand up to a concrete vibrator, used to consolidate the concrete. The resulting solid concrete shear-wall, high R-value, high-thermal mass and reduced air infiltration provides a wall that out-performs an R-50+ wood frame wall. The form is lightweight and easy to use, with interlocking tongues-and-grooves, and is the first concrete wall system that competes economically with insulated wood frame and block and beam (CBS) construction. Polysteel Forms® (U.S. Pat. No. 4,879,855) are fully approved by UBC, SBC, BOCA, ICBO, SBCCI and NER.

thermographic tests rating an R=50 in this area, (South Florida)

Wouldn't you think you and your family deserved the energy savings and security a Polysteel® Home can provide ?

Here is a letter from another happy customer in an 3,109 S/F Home 2,155 S/F under air

We just wanted to let you know how pleased we have been with our decision to go with a Polysteel home. Last summer we did not have to turn on our air conditioner until after the 4th of July. When we did finally use the air, the highest bill we had for the whole summer was $69. and change.

It's not just the energy savings. It is so quiet in here - noise just doesn't make it in. We would never have another house without this construction.

A Home is the biggest Financial Investment most of us will ever make in our entire lives. In all practicality, shouldn't we build it's structure with something that will out last all of us. When we think of strong structures, like Bank vaults, bridges, jails, and Bomb shelters, what do they all have in common? They aren't made with hollow masonry block or wood frame are they? They are however built with solid reinforced concrete. Polysteel® Forms have been engineered to meet or exceed the toughest of building codes. We also have every code approval. Polysteel® Forms also have a UL firewall assembly rating !!
