Insulate It Solutions is a highly effective, environmentally friendly product that provides significant savings on heating and cooling costs. It is also durable, reducing the need for re-insulation over time and providing long-term value.
Unlike traditional fiberglass or cellulose, spray foam insulation has air sealing capabilities that help create a tightly sealed home. This eliminates the movement of heat, allowing a more consistent indoor temperature, decreasing the demand on heating and cooling systems. It also acts as a sound barrier, decreasing noise levels and ensuring that your family is comfortable in all weather conditions.
How Spray Foam Insulation Helps Reduce Utility Bills
It is a high-performance insulation material that is injected into wall, ceiling and roof cavities to provide a complete home airtight seal. The spraying process uses 2 composite materials, polyurethane and isocyanate, which are sprayed at the same time from the tip of a spray foam gun, causing them to chemically react and expand into a protective layer of insulation.
There are 2 primary forms of spray foam insulation, open-cell and closed-cell. The difference between the 2 is how the foam cells are structured – open-cell is softer and more flexible and has a lower R-value per inch, while closed-cell provides a higher R-value and adds structural strength to your home. It also has moisture resistance and is more durable, resisting sagging or settling over the years.
While there are a few horror stories about spray foam that are based on skewed perceptions or flawed science, the vast majority of cases of failure of spray foam insulation are based on improper installation. These instances typically occur when the installer did not mix the chemicals correctly or did not adequately ventilate during the application process.
