Residential spray foam insulation is a premium product that offers superior performance compared to traditional insulation materials. It is a type of polyurethane foam that is sprayed as a liquid and expands to fill every crack, crevice, and gap in your walls, attic, and crawl spaces. This process creates a complete air seal, which is something other insulation types simply cannot achieve. This airtight barrier is the key to preventing conditioned air from escaping and stopping drafts in their tracks.
The result is a home with a remarkably consistent indoor temperature, eliminating hot and cold spots and reducing the strain on your heating and cooling systems. In fact, studies from the Department of Energy show that air leakage can account for up to 40% of a home's energy loss. By addressing this critical issue, spray foam insulation provides a significant return on investment through substantial, long-term savings on your monthly utility bills, making it a smart financial decision for any homeowner.
The unique properties of spray foam insulation make it an incredibly versatile solution for nearly any part of your home. Its ability to expand and adhere to almost any surface allows for a seamless application in both new construction and existing properties. Whether you are looking to upgrade your current insulation or ensure your new home is built to the highest standards of energy efficiency, spray foam provides a comprehensive solution that addresses areas other materials cannot.
From the highest peaks of your attic to the foundation walls, spray foam creates a continuous layer of protection. This versatility ensures that we can target the most critical areas of heat loss in your home, providing a customized solution that meets your specific needs and budget. Our team uses specialized spray foam rigs and equipment to ensure a precise and efficient application every time, guaranteeing optimal performance and a flawless finish.
When selecting spray foam for your home, you will encounter two main types: open-cell and closed-cell polyurethane foam. Open-cell foam is a lighter, less dense material that expands significantly upon application. It provides an excellent air barrier and is also a great sound-dampening material, making it ideal for interior walls and roof decks to create a quieter indoor environment. Because its cell structure is not fully enclosed, it allows water vapor to pass through, which can be beneficial in certain applications.
Closed-cell foam, on the other hand, is much denser and more rigid. Its cells are completely enclosed, which makes it impermeable to both air and water vapor. This property makes closed-cell foam an excellent choice for basements, crawl spaces, and exterior applications where moisture resistance is critical. It also has a higher R-value per inch, meaning it provides more insulating power in less space. The added rigidity of closed-cell foam can even contribute to the structural strength of your home’s walls.
