Spray foam is a premium insulation material that can dramatically improve the energy efficiency of your home or building. It is installed as a liquid and expands into dense foam that fills every crack and nook to prevent air leakage. This air seal stops drafts and keeps your home a more comfortable temperature year-round and can save you a substantial amount on your energy bills each month.
Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) can be used in new construction, rim joists, attics, crawl spaces, and for finishing basements, pole barns and homes. There are two main types of spray foam; open-cell and closed-cell. We use a non-toxic soy-based product with a high R-value that is environmentally safe and class one fire rated.
The chemistry of spray foam is very complex and requires specialized equipment to apply properly. It contains 2 major ingredients; isocyanate and polyol resin. When mixed and sprayed properly, it will expand to 30-60 times its liquid volume.
The Ultimate Guide to Spray Foam Insulation: Benefits, Applications, and Installation Tips
When spraying, the installer should follow the CAN/ULC S705.2 National Application Standard and wear appropriate safety gear. We recommend you hire a certified spray foam professional for all projects. The pros have the experience to know what mixtures work best, and how much to spray, and they are less likely to miss any tight spots a DIYer might overlook.
Spray foam contractors will remove any existing insulation in the areas they are insulating and cover anything that will be exposed with plastic. They will run a hose to the area to be sprayed and suit up with their protective gear. They will then spray the areas that need to be insulated, clean up and they are done!
