Insulation Contractor is a building product that’s applied in a spray gun and expands to fill spaces. It’s often used in the attic or in wall cavities to create a tightly sealed thermal envelope, which improves energy efficiency and reduces air leakage. It’s also an environmentally friendly insulation, and its ingredients are rapidly renewable.

Common Misconceptions About HD Spray Foam Insulation

Choosing the right spray foam insulation for your home depends on your project and climate zone. For example, an above-grade crawl space requires open cell spray foam, while a basement or attic needs closed-cell. Additionally, your budget and skill set should also factor into the decision.

Closed-cell spray foam offers a higher R-value per inch and a tighter seal, which makes it ideal for attics and basements. It’s also a good choice for foundations because it creates an effective vapor barrier and repels moisture. In addition to being an insulator and air barrier, closed-cell spray foam offers added structural support for walls and roofs.

Many leading manufacturers now offer spray foam products that use blowing agents with a lower global warming potential (GWP). These blowing agents include hydrogen fluoride (HFO), which has a GWP of 1. Solstice, for instance, uses HFOs, and Gaco’s spray foam insulation is made using polyols from recycled plastic waste, natural oils, and post-consumer recycled materials.

Regardless of the type of spray foam you choose, this high-performance insulation option will likely save you 10 to 15 percent on heating and cooling costs compared to traditional fiberglass batts. If you’re ready to see the savings, contact us today for a free quote on foam insulation.
