A plethora of benefits come from spray foam insulation, but perhaps its most important quality is that it acts as an air barrier in your home. The fact that it closes up the nooks and crannies that let hot air escape during winter or cool air in during summer means your heating and cooling systems don’t need to work as hard. This in turn leads to much lower energy bills.
Spray foam insulation can be installed in both new and existing buildings, as it is a versatile material that can be sprayed into wall cavities, ceilings, roof spaces and even under slabs. It is a two-part liquid insulation that expands to form a hard, protective barrier over surfaces. It’s available in open or closed-cell foam and can be applied to walls and attic floors as well as filling cracks and voids where plumbing or electrical wiring is located.
Spray Foam Insulation vs. Traditional Insulation: A Comparison
It can also be used in conjunction with batt insulation or to insulate the ceiling of an attic space and is suitable for both new and existing homes and businesses. It is a highly energy-efficient solution that can provide significant savings over time, as it reduces the amount of conditioned air that escapes through walls and the roof.
It can be costly to have spray foam insulation installed in your property, but the resulting savings on energy bills more than makeup for this cost. Additionally, there are now options for low GWP blowing agents to be used, making the spray foam more eco-friendly and reducing any potential risk of health issues such as asthma or hay fever.
