Meets ICC Evaluation Service Requirements
Handi-Foam E-84 Class 1 Spray Foam, manufactured by Fomo Products, Inc. received evaluation stating that it meets code requirements from ICC Evaluation Service (ICC-ES). Ideal for flash and batt or hybrid insulation systems, Fomo's Handi-Foam low pressure spray polyurethane foam (SPF) two component system can be used to air seal the cavities of walls, floors, ceilings, attics and crawl spaces - improving the overall comfort of a structure.
After thorough examination, ICC-ES found Fomo's product information, test reports, calculations, quality control methods and other factors to be code compliant, specifically with Handi-Foam's physical properties, surface-burning characteristics and thermal resistance (R-values). The product was found in compliance with the 2009 International Building Code, 2009 International Residential Code and 2009 International Energy Conservation Code®, among others, which can be found within the ICC-ES Evaluation Report (ESR#2717).
"When our customers can trust that the products and solutions we provide them are compliant with important codes and regulations, we give them peace of mind, as well as operational efficiency, but most importantly, we help make their jobs easier," said Sandra Gump, product manager, Fomo Products, Inc. "Part of Fomo's mission statement is to provide best-in-class customer service and as part of our effort to do that, we believe in thoroughly testing and maintaining products that meet the latest industry standards."
Building officials, architects, contractors, specifiers, designers and others utilize the ICC-ES Evaluation Reports to provide a basis for using or approving Handi-Foam E-84 in construction projects following the International Code.
"Fomo can reference the evaluation report to ensure building officials and the building industry that Handi-Foam E-84 meets I-Code requirements," said Mark Johnson, president, ICC-ES. "Building departments have a long history of using evaluation reports, and ICC-ES operates as a technical resource for the building department. Final approval of building products is always in the hands of the local regulatory agency."
