Phoenix, AZ -- HercuWall , a patented, “green” wall building system, which could revolutionize homebuilding across the globe, will be introduced here on Earth Day (Wednesday, April 22) by Smart Homes Alliance.
Michael Niemann, founder and CEO of HercuWall, Inc., manufacturer of the newly released system, will unveil the product in a formal presentation to building contractors and other key individuals in the construction industry from throughout the Phoenix area at The Wall Company in Gilbert.
Niemann said HercuWall is a unique building system ideally suited to both residential and commercial construction -- providing significant economic advantages to both the builder and home owner. “It is a superior alternative to both wood and concrete block construction as well as traditional ICF (insulating concrete forms) construction,” said Niemann. “This is because of our distinctive panelized design that takes advantage of the strength of steel-reinforced concrete plus our versatile simplicity which enables our walls to be installed much faster than other options.”
Energy Efficient -- Owners benefit because HercuWall provides them with a stronger, draft free, energy efficient home that is mold, moisture and termite proof as well as highly resistant to natural disasters,” explained Niemann. “It reduces utility costs by 40% to 60% over conventional wood construction when combined with proper attic insulation, windows and HVAC equipment. Moreover, insurance and on-going maintenance costs can also be expected to be less for the end user.”
Cost Efficient – A big advantage is cost efficiency – especially for production builders with significantly shorter build cycles. It takes only two days to frame a typical 2,000-sq.ft. home with the HercuWall system -- which can result in major savings to all parties. It requires minimal training with in-place labor.
Environmental Attributes -- HercuWall benefits the environment by saving trees, reducing emissions and lowering overall energy usage year after year. “Builders can now offer true green construction without compromising quality or price,” noted Niemann.
“Stronger, faster, smarter,” said Niemann. “HercuWall is a superior product that can be installed in less time and is friendly to the environment. We believe it will one day become the preferred exterior insulated wall building product for residential and commercial applications worldwide.”
