When applied properly, spray foam insulation creates a barrier that stops air from flowing in and out of your home or building. This insulation prevents air leakage that causes high heating and cooling costs. It also reduces the amount of time your furnace and air conditioner have to run to keep your space warm or cool, reducing their overall energy usage.
When compared to Insulation Contractor fiberglass or cellulose insulation, spray foam offers superior air sealing abilities that lower homeowners’ energy bills by up to 50%. It does this by stopping the flow of hot or cold air through walls, floors, and ceilings. Its unique ability to seal and insulate the entire structure of your home or business creates a tight, airtight envelope that dramatically reduces the cost of heating and cooling.

The air barrier created by spray foam insulation helps reduce the presence of pests and allergens like mold and mildew. It is impermeable to moisture, which means it won’t allow the growth of these dangerous substances in wall cavities, resulting in a healthier environment for your family.
Before spray insulation can be installed, a professional crew will first remove any existing insulation that may be present in the area that will be sprayed. It is best to have occupants of the home or building evacuate during spraying and the curing process because the foam can off-gas volatile organic compounds (VOCs). For this reason, it is important to choose only professionally installed spray insulation that uses low GWP blowing agents such as HFOs (hydrofluoroolefins) or Genyk Boreal Nature.
