INFORMATION OUTLET
Products Used by Behnke Construction
Before you go on to the rest of the page I would like everyone to know that I am always open to new products. I am constantly doing research for the best products available to me, so I can provide the information and also build the Highest Quality Energy Efficient Homes.
ICF (INSULATED CONCRETE FORMS)
The image below is a beautiful ICF walled home.(This image might also be in one of the links below.)
BuildBlock is the ICF that I use. Here is a good brochure(pdf)
I am currently checking into Super-Form mostly because of design and R-value.
QuadLock is an ICF company that makes ICF deck for floors and roofs.
RADIANT/WATER SUPPLY
IPEX is the company that I use often for pex supplies. They have an advantages description of radiant heat for the HOMEOWNER.
Oxygen barrier pex has aluminum layer where pex is made of all pex or plastic.
I use an oxygen barrier pex-pipe for both radiant heating and manifold drinking water. An example of how IPEX or KiTec is constructed can be found here.
FIREPLACES
Kozyheat is a good source for fireplaces.
Gas Fireplace
Wood
There are many fireplace styles out there. As I find good examples I will post them.
KITCHENS
Merillat makes box style, or modular type cabinets that I have had very good luck with.They have a very
nice price when compared to custom cabinets.
CULTURED / REAL STONE
Here are some links for stone; Natural Stone Veneers and Owens Corning
STAMPED CONCRETE
Superior Decorative is the company that I currently use.
SCP has a large number of supplies for concrete decorating.
These are all possibilities with stamped concrete!!!
