Spray Pro Insulation – The Advantages of Spray Foam Insulation

The walls, roofs, and foundations of houses function as environmental separators – they keep the outside out and the inside in. To do this they need to be able to handle water, air, vapor and heat (Figure 1). In many cases spray foam is a better option than other types of insulation such as fiberglass and cellulose.

A key advantage of spray foam is that it seals gaps and leaks, creating a custom airtight envelope within the building structure. This reduces energy losses and lowers cooling and heating bills significantly.

In addition, closed-cell spray foam also provides an air and vapor barrier in one, eliminating the need for a separate vapor barrier. This helps to protect against moisture entrapment which can contribute to the development of mold in the walls, roof, and foundation of a home.

Another benefit of spray foam is that it reduces noise transmission in homes and commercial buildings. This is primarily because the foam creates a barrier that limits the flow of air and sound, making it difficult for sounds to pass through.

While attic insulation can be purchased as DIY kits, it is highly recommended that homeowners hire a professional contractor to install the product. This is because a professional will have the tools needed to achieve consistent coverage and expansion consistently across the entire area being insulated. A professional will also have access to equipment that can monitor the temperature of the foam being applied, which is critical for ensuring proper installation and performance.
