aascipsw If you’re looking to boost your home’s energy efficiency, spray foam insulation can be the answer. This spray-on insulator comes in an aerosol can and expands to fill spaces that are difficult or impossible to reach with other materials, such as fiberglass batt insulation or rigid foam. It also creates an airtight seal that blocks convective heat transfer – the movement of heat from warm to cold or vice versa through gaps and cracks in a building envelope.
A Step-by-Step Guide to Our Spray Foam Insulation Process
When choosing a spray foam, consider its yield (how much it expands per volume) and moisture performance. Also, pay attention to the blowing agent used. Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) have a high global warming potential, but many spray foam insulation manufacturers have begun switching to low-GWP blowing agents.
Spray foam insulation is more expensive than some DIY options, but the upfront costs can be offset by lower energy bills and reduced need for future repairs. A typical installation will cost around $500 to $1,000, depending on the size of the house and how much spray foam is installed.
To install spray foam, professionals use specialized rigs that mix the two parts of the spray and control the application process, including temperature and consistency. It’s important that the rig is operated by a trained professional so the results will be consistent and of the highest quality. A professional will also be able to address any unforeseen issues during the application process and ensure that the spray is properly applied for maximum effectiveness.
