Value and Construction:
- Highest R value of any insulation material
- Increased life of the building
- Seals all cracks and crevices
- Does not settle
- Allows for design options such as thinner walls
- Reduces energy loss by 50%
VAPOR RETARDER Spray foam insulation prevents condensation of water vapor inside wall or ceiling materials. When moisture is trapped it can cause damage to the wall board and paint as well as structural deterioration.
AIR BARRIER Spray foam insulation act as an air barrier, spray foam insulation provides insulation and air sealing in one step. This prevents outside air from coming in and inside air from moving out. Air leakage can also introduce moisture into the cavity, resulting in wet insulation and mold. Spray foam insulation prevents air leakage.
HIGHEST R VALUE Spray foam insulation has the highest R-value per inch. The higher the R-value the greater the insulating power. Spray foam insulation allows for more insulation in a tighter space than conventional batt insulations. R-value of glass fiber batts is 3.5 per inch. Blown in cellulose is 4 per inch. Spray foam insulation has and R-value of 7.
VALUE Spray foam insulation maintains its durable properties for the lifetime of your home. Spray foam insulation reduces construction cost by providing an air barrier, insulation and vapor barrier all in one product.
ENERGY SAVINGS Spray foam insulation provides air sealing and R-value, which results in heating and cooling cost savings. Less fuel burned reduces the impact on the environment. Studies show that homes insulated with spray foam insulation use up to 40% less energy. Spray foam insulation is considered a "green product"
ENHANCED MOISTURE BARRIER AND CONDENSATION CONTROL Controlling moisture is key to preventing mold grow. Spray foam insulation will not promote mold growth. Spray foam insulation offers no food value therefore it cannot support bacteria or fungal growth and it will not absorb water. Spray foam insulation is actually hydrophobic-it repels water. Spray foam insulation offers superior performance in resisting moisture transmission and condensation.
STRUCTURAL STRENGTH Spray foam insulation fully adheres to the sheathing and the studs, reinforcing both. This means it adds structural strength while adding very little weight.
IMPROVES INDOOR AIR QUALITY AND COMFORT Spray foam insulation helps prevent uncontrolled outdoor air infiltration and the penetration of dust, pollen and other allergens. Spray foam insulation is the healthy choice for those who suffer from allergies, asthma or chemical sensitivity. Spray foam insulation is the smart choice for healthy living. Additionally, spray foam insulation can reduce noise transfer and sound penetration.
