Building with ICE Panels is an upfront investment that promises long-term benefits. While the initial cost may seem higher, the numerous ways you’ll save money, not just during the construction phase but throughout the building’s lifespan, providing you with a sense of reassurance about your investment.
High R-values: Conserving energy is the key to reducing your monthly bill. When comparing the performance of different wall options, you’ll see that ICE Panels outperform the rest. If you’re considering a comparable wall to the ICE Panel, you’ll quickly realize that our cost per R-value is superior to traditional building methods. By significantly reducing heat loss through your walls, ICE Panels offer the most cost-effective solution for energy efficiency.
Thermally Broken: Thermal bridging is responsible for significant heat loss through a traditionally built building envelope. ICE Panels are thermally broken, effectively eliminating the majority of hot or cold air being transferred from the outside in and vice versa. This provides a highly efficient building envelope and saves money on utilities each month.
Less Construction Heating: Heating a project in cold climates can be expensive. By choosing ICE Panels, your building envelope is delivered on-site pre-insulated, bringing your building to operational heating capacity at a fraction of the price. Multiple builders have easily heated the interior of an ICE Panel project during the construction phase with the use of just a few small construction heaters.
Shorter Build Times: Building with ICE Panels guarantees faster close-in times, so whether it’s your family or a paying tenant moving in, 30 days of advanced occupancy means 30 days of saved time and resources that can be allocated to other projects.
Rebates & Incentives: ICE Panels significantly contribute to qualifying for new construction rebates and incentives. ICE Panels have been used to achieve Step 5 of the BC Energy Step Code, where projects can qualify for up to $10,000 per unit. Working with an energy advisor, an accurate projection can be created to show exactly how much energy your building will conserve by using an ICE Panel building envelope, and this information can be used to apply for financial incentives.
Less Waste On Site: Reducing the amount of material sent to a landfill will reduce your construction costs and time spent on job-site cleanup. This benefit is often overlooked when calculating ways to save money on your project.
