After talking to Michael Falloon from Gladstone Bricks Sales on alternative methods of forming up for the construction of his new pool, Adam was convinced that the new Eco-blocks Michael recommended would be perfect.<br \/>\u201cThere were a number of reasons I decided to give them a try,\u201d he said. \u201cMichael really knows his stuff and I was happy to take his advice in this matter. I saw this as a good opportunity to try the product on my own construction project to see how it went. The blocks turned out to be very cost effective, very manageable and easy to use.\u201d\u2026<em>\u2026<a href=\"http:\/\/www.eco-blockaustralia.com.au\/pdfs\/PRF%20Gladstone%20Brick%20Sales%2025-06-11%20Double%20Page.pdf\">.R<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eco-blockaustralia.com.au\/pdfs\/PRF%20Gladstone%20Brick%20Sales%2025-06-11%20Double%20Page.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"ead More Here (opens in a new tab)\">ead More Here<\/a><\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Energy Savings for an Eco ICF Home<\/strong><br \/>The documents below have been provided by Jorge of Builtex Homes based on one of their display homes built with Eco Block.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eco-blockaustralia.com.au\/brochures\/averagesaving.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Average Saving PDF (opens in a new tab)\">Average Saving PDF<\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eco-blockaustralia.com.au\/brochures\/140513_BERS%20Rating_Eco%20Lateral-ED.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"BERS Rating Eco Lateral ED PDF (opens in a new tab)\">BERS Rating Eco Lateral ED PDF<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>House in the Natural EnvironmentBrisbane has many areas that are categorized as bushfire prone.
