Spray Foam Insulation: Clean, safe and effective.

What exactly is spray foam insulation? Spray polyurethane foam (SPF) is an innovative foam plastic substance that is sprayed onto an open surface in paint-like form and then expands to create an insulating barrier against wind and outside temperatures.

What does spray foam insulation do?

It helps ensure that the conditioned air created by your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system (HVAC) stays inside. In this way, it helps you save thousands of energy dollars while also protecting the environment. It also protects your home from condensation and water. It keeps cold air out in winter and hot air out in summer. In addition to providing excellent insulation, spray polyurethane foam acts as several products including:

• Sealant
• Air barrier
• Vapor retardant
• Weather barrier

Where is spray foam insulation used?

• Insulation in walls, attic spaces, ceilings, and basements
• Industrial insulation for cold storage spaces, walk-in refrigerators / freezers, produce storage rooms, pipes, tanks, and more

Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation:

Versatility

Spray foam insulation works for all exposed surfaces including walls, ceilings, basements, crawl spaces, and attics.

Structural Value

Spray foam insulation adds to the structural integrity of your home.

High R-Value

The higher the R-Value, the more resistant a material is thermal exchange. Spray polyurethane foam insulation has a very high R-Value.

Multi-Level Barrier

Spray foam insulation serves as an air barrier as well as a sound barrier.

Moisture Reduction

Condensation and moisture can cause mold growth and water damage, which spray foam insulation protects against.

Benefits of Closed Cell Foam
Closed cell foam is the best choice for robust insulating where space is an issue, as it can achieve 2x the R-Value of open cell inside a standard wall. Its rigid nature also adds to the structural integrity of the building and E84 fire rated versions are available. The closed cell also acts as a vapor barrier, so water and moisture will be less likely to get inside the home, and the foam itself is unharmed by water damage.

Benefits of Open Cell Foam
One of the biggest benefits of open cell foam is that it expands so much after it has been applied, meaning it can insulate hard to reach nooks and crannies in a home. These types of areas can be hard to insulate with closed cell foam. Open cell foam is excellent for soundproofing where a single application can completly fill the area between studs.

Open cell foam is also much more affordable than closed cell foam, however this foam won’t insulate a house as well as closed cell foam, so it’s not ideal for locations with extreme weather temperatures.
