Spray foam insulation combines two resins into a single product through a process called polyurethane. The mixture is sprayed in place and expands to create a customized, airtight seal throughout the home. Spray foam insulation has many benefits over traditional fiberglass, including eliminating the need for vents, reducing the required HVAC size and price, and cutting heating and cooling costs by up to 50%.

It also prevents moisture from penetrating areas like crawl spaces and attics, where it can cause mold, mildew and other costly damage. Additionally, spray foam insulation has a very high R-value and prevents air leakage, which can result in energy usage that is often overlooked. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, air leakage causes between 25%-40% of your home’s energy consumption. Spray foam insulation eliminates air leakage and keeps conditioned air in your living spaces, which will save on your energy bills year after year.

When it comes to insulating your home, you’ll want to hire a professional contractor who has experience with spray foam insulation. A professional will have the equipment needed to achieve consistent coverage and expansion, which is essential for ensuring optimal insulation performance.

It’s important to note that spray foam insulation does contain isocyanates, which can be hazardous when handled incorrectly. Overexposure to isocyanates can cause respiratory irritation and even lead to chemical bronchitis. However, with advances in blowing agent technology, spray foam insulation has become a lot safer to use than in years past.
