MAKE YOUR CONCRETE BLOCK HOME PERFORM JUST LIKE THE ALTERNATIVE SYSTEMS

 

 

 

Here in the caribbean and globally, reinforced concrete structures have been the predominant material of choice when constructing homes and offices. While extremely strong and a proven hurricane resistant building, concrete by itself does not lend itself very well to energy efficiency due to its poor R value and insulating properties. In recent years we have seen the introduction of various other wall systems that produce greater R values and subsequently improve the energy efficiency of the building. So, what would happen if we could some how take a proven building material such as concrete blocks and make them perform just like all the other energy efficicent wall systems such as ICF (Insulated concrete forms) or SIP's (structural Insulated Panels), and produce a R value in the block that is comparible or greater than that of both alternative systems. We have now incorporated a system which can be retro fitted into existing buildings, or incorporated into new structures. So yes, you can have your cake and eat it too!

 

Are you a home owner and want to stay with conventional block construction for your new home, or want to increase the savings of your existing home? COOL SEAL is  what you are looking for. For many of our clients COOL SEAL has become the one time choice for their projects. COOL SEAL takes conventional block and makes it perform with all the energy savings of an alternative system, while still preserving the piece of mind that you have a reinforced concrete structure.  COOL SEAL benefits for new and existing buildings:

  • One of the main contributors of your high cooling cost results from poor or no insulation in the exterior of your home.  

Caribbean Greensafe introduces COOL SEAL an innovative, cost effective solution for existing and new buildings to not only reduce your cooling cost, but also adds additional benefits to improve the overall performance, safety and efficiency of the building. Cool seal can be installed in residential and commercial projects providing superior energy efficient performance. Cool seal does what other insulations cannot. A non expanding  injectable product , professionally installed by our certified installers with our high speed injection equipment into the wall cavities of Block and stud walls. Thouroughly filling all voids and insulating the building. When installed into concrete block, exceptional R values can be achieved, increasing the efficiency of the building up to 50%. COOL Seal effectively seals all of the air infiltration and leaks in the wall providing a COOL shield around the entire shell of the structure. An innovative and specifically designed foam. Cool seal will not settle and is not affected by moisture, therefore it will not stop working once applied. A one time cost effective solution to reduce your cooling cost and improve the performance of your building.  

While reinforce concrete block construction is strong, by itself it has very poor insulation properties which permits a large amount of heat transfer through the walls of your home, which is the main factor affecting your cooling cost. An 8” concrete block has an R value of less than 3. COOl SEAL with an R factor of 4.6 per inch significantly increases the R factor of Concrete block to over R24 per block cell. Concrete Block also has many open cavities within the wall allowing many pests and insects to go undetected. These open cavities also provide a passage of air that can fuel fire should it occur. With a class 1 firs rating Cool seal effectively addresses not only the energy loss, but all these concerns, in addition to forming a sound barrier which makes your home quieter and more comfortable. 

Cool seal foam injection is made of environmentally safe nitrogen based organic polymers, so it is non toxic and contains no petro chemicals, CFC or harmful solvents. Tested and approved by certified independent laboratories COOL Seal has been proven to be superior to many other insulations on the market today.  

So wither it’s a old home, new home, office building or Historic building cool seal foam injection is your quick and simple solution to help you save money while keeping cool in your building. 

Cool Seal is a green product installed for the increased performance of your building, saving you money continually year after year.
