spray foam insulation is one of the most important parts of a home’s building envelope. It prevents the transfer of heat through walls and between floors, keeping rooms warm in winter and cool in summer. Poor insulation leads to energy waste that can result in high utility bills year-round.
Whether you are building new construction or converting an existing structure to a more energy efficient design, spray foam insulation is the ideal solution for your project. The flexible and durable material is sprayed on-site as liquid that expands to fill all the small spaces in the structure’s framing. This allows for easy application in complex structures and hard-to-reach areas.
Spray foam comes in both closed-cell and open-cell varieties, though they perform the same function – preventing heat flow through the walls and roofs of your home. The difference between the two is that open-cell foam consists of pockets that aren’t completely encapsulated, whereas closed cell foam has cells that are pressed together to form an airtight seal.
Professional installation of insulation is essential, as it ensures consistent coverage and proper expansion throughout an entire building envelope. In addition, professionals are able to monitor the process to ensure that it is working properly. Additionally, professional contractors are able to provide the R-value required to meet building code requirements.
R-value is a measure of the resistance to heat flow, and the higher the R-value, the better the insulation. Quality insulation also increases a home’s resale value, as potential buyers will appreciate its ability to lower their energy costs.
