The insulating properties of spray foam can prevent air leakage, which accounts for 25-40% of energy use in a home1. The reason is that spray insulation expands 40 to 100 times its original volume to fill gaps, cracks and crevices. It seals all penetrations such as vents, stacks, drains, and structural supports. This air sealing makes your house much more energy efficient and comfortable.

During the winter, spray foam insulation prevents hot outdoor air from entering your home. That allows your heating system to work less and saves you money on utility bills. It also keeps cold air from escaping, saving you money on cooling bills in the summer.

The Environmental Benefits of Choosing Spray Foam Insulation

While other types of insulation can only be applied to the attic or basement, open-cell spray foam can be installed anywhere in the building. It’s a great choice for insulating a crawl space, wall, or attic in a new construction or retrofit, as well as for insulating a metal roof or pole barn. It provides a durable, water-resistant, and mold-resistant barrier against harsh weather.

When compared to fiberglass batt insulation, open-cell spray foam offers more R-value for the same thickness. Moreover, it’s more effective in preventing heat loss from the building envelope because of its high vapor permeability rating and air-tight seal. It’s also better at reducing airborne noise caused by traffic, voices, and other environmental factors, creating a quieter, more peaceful home.
