Benefits of Spray Foam InsulationBenefits of Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam Insulation Contractor fills the tiny air gaps in a home’s walls and ceilings, creating an air seal that prevents hot or cold air from moving freely in and out of the building. This insulating power is why it offers the highest R-value of any type of insulation available.

Energy Savings

Unlike other insulation materials that degrade over time, spray foam insulation maintains its R-value and performance level for decades. As a result, homeowners who choose to invest in this durable and effective insulation save money on heating and cooling costs year-round.

This translates into a quick payback period on the original investment. Moreover, homeowners with well-insulated homes typically spend 50% less on utility costs than their counterparts who don’t use this energy-efficient material.

Using spray foam in basements, crawl spaces, attics, overhangs, knee walls, and bonus rooms helps reduce heat loss and improve the comfort of your living space. It also blocks unwanted outdoor noises from entering your home, making it easier to sleep, work or relax.

While DIY spray foam kits are available, we strongly recommend professional installation for any project involving closed-cell or open-cell spray foam products. These products require a precise and controlled chemical reaction to perform at their optimal level. Inexperienced or untrained professionals may not achieve consistent coverage and expansion of the product, leading to poor insulating results. Additionally, improper equipment settings and excessive pass thicknesses can cause foam shrinkage, which could impact structural framing and exterior wall/ roof areas.
