In fact, our spray foam provides nearly twice the value of traditional insulation<\/strong>. The dense polyurethane and polyethane insulation we use is extremely durable and will expand and fully adhere to surfaces, strengthening the structure of a home.<\/p>\n Our insulation provides incredible thermal performance and can be installed in areas that would be inaccessible or difficult for other forms of insulation. It effectively isolates air currents and moisture, reducing the chance of mold or mildew and increasing the life of any building.<\/p>\n Spray foam:<\/p>\n Spray foam insulation is a process that fills cavities against air leakage and moment. In the home there are many locations which air can move and leak, causing heat loss and lower heating and cooling efficiency. This includes sealing wall, ceilings and floors as well as areas around electrical outlets and light fixtures. Unlike rolled and sprayed fiberglass, spray foam fills cracks, gaps and crevices on installation. It won\u2019t settle, compress or sag as it ages. <\/span><\/p>\n According to the US Department of Energy, air leakage can account for as much as 40 percent of the energy cost to heat and cool your home. That is the equivalent of leaving a window open 24 hours a day, all year long.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>Spray foam insulation is the most effective protection against this significant source of leakage.<\/span><\/p>\n (Reference: https:\/\/www.spraypolyurethane.org\/spf-insulation-basics\/)<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n SPF, a spray-applied cellular plastic, is made by mixing chemicals to create foam. Those\u00a0chemicals react very quickly, expanding on contact to create foam that insulates, air seals and\u00a0provides a moisture barrier. When properly installed, SPF forms a continuous barrier on walls,\u00a0around corners and on contoured surfaces. It resists heat transfer very well and is an effective\u00a0solution for reducing unwanted air infiltration through cracks, seams, and joints.<\/span><\/p>\n SPF insulation applied by professionals is usually described as either a high- or low-pressure\u00a0foam and is available as either open- or closed-cell. Each type has advantages and disadvantages\u00a0depending on the application requirements. The comparison chart below can be helpful in\u00a0explaining or understanding which type of SPF insulation is best suited to a specific application.<\/span><\/p>\n Closed-Cell vs Open-Cell Foam: A Comparison<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n Closed Cell<\/strong><\/p>\n Open Cell<\/strong><\/p>\n In Maine, a house with 1,800 square feet of living space can save $447\/year on average using a spray foam insulation\/air barrier when compared to standard rolled fiberglass insulation.<\/p>\nWhy Spray Foam Insulation?<\/h2>\n
