As one of the most eco-friendly insulation materials on the market, spray foam insulation is an excellent choice for both new and existing homes. It creates an impenetrable seal, stopping air leaks and reducing energy costs. Its acoustical properties make it an effective sound barrier as well.
Long-Term Performance of Advanced Seal Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam insulation is made from polyurethane, a combination of resins that are combined into a froth and then sprayed onto walls and ceilings during the rough-in stage of construction. It expands to fill small gaps and cracks, preventing a home from losing warm air in winter and cool air in summer. It also prevents a house from becoming damp and humid, which can lead to mildew, mold, and other costly water damage repairs.
When used properly, spray foam insulation can save homeowners thousands of dollars over the lifetime of their home. It reduces the need for heating and cooling equipment to operate, which has a direct effect on energy usage and monthly utility bills. It also keeps conditioned air in a building, which cuts down on the amount of hot or cold outside air that is brought inside and then lost again through drafty walls, attics, and crawl spaces.
It is important to note that spray foam insulation should only be installed by a professional contractor, as it uses a chemical reaction to form the material. If the chemicals are mixed or sprayed improperly, the resulting product can off-gas amines and isocyanates, which can cause serious health issues and even toxicity.
