Compared to fiberglass or cellulose, spray foam insulation is more effective at resisting conduction and convection. It’s also more effective at preventing the loss of warm air during winter and cool air during summer.

As an added benefit, spray foam improves indoor air quality by preventing the exchange of outside pollutants into a home or business. Those pollutants include mold, dust and pollen that often cause runny noses, itchy eyes and the need for antihistamines.

Energy Efficiency: How Spray Foam Insulation Saves You Money

Open-cell spray foam insulation is made from polyurethane, which has been making its way to a greener market in recent years, thanks to advancements in blowing agents that make the foam expandable and easier to work with. The foam also contains no formaldehyde, and the process of combining polyurethane resins has a low environmental impact.

While DIY kits are available, professional installers are best qualified to work with this highly specialized type of insulation. They can provide a more complete and accurate installation that will ensure optimum performance. They also know how to install it in tight spaces and hard-to-reach areas, like basement rim joists, crawl spaces, overhangs, knee walls and bonus rooms.
