The most important attribute of spray foam insulation is its ability to air seal creating a custom airtight envelope within the building structure. This prevents convective heat transfer from the interior to the exterior during heating months and the reverse during cooling months. It also blocks draughts from cold weather and provides a barrier against mold growth and other harmful pollutants that can cause health problems.

Spray Foam Insulation Helps Reduce Energy Consumption

The high R-value of spray foam helps to keep conditioned air inside the home, meaning that your HVAC system doesn’t need to work as hard to maintain a balanced temperature throughout the year. This helps to lower your energy bills significantly.

Spray foam insulation is a versatile material that can be used in a variety of spaces in the house, such as the attic or walls. However, it’s best to hire a professional insulation contractor for large projects and spaces that require precise climate control and moisture protection.

Spray foam is available in open cell or closed cell options, both of which have different benefits depending on the needs of your home. The cost of closed-cell spray foam is slightly higher than that of open cell, but it is more durable and creates a stronger vapor barrier. In addition, spray foam insulation can be used in conjunction with other projects, such as replacing your windows, to create a more energy-efficient home. This is possible because of the way spray foam insulation sticks to walls and other surfaces, making it ideal for covering gaps and crannies that would otherwise be uninsulated.
