Spray foam Insulation Contractor is a type of plastic foam used in building construction to help seal air and water leaks. The product is typically applied as a liquid that expands up to 60 times its original volume and can be sprayed onto roof tiles, concrete slabs or into wall cavities. Unlike fiberglass insulation, spray foam can also be applied to hard-to-reach areas such as around air ducts and ceilings.

Homeowners can choose to either apply the foam themselves using a DIY kit or hire a professional contractor to handle the job for them. The decision often comes down to the size of the project and the desired level of insulation performance. Professionals will have access to technologies that make it easier for them to achieve consistent coverage and proper expansion on all areas of the project, ensuring a high-quality result.

The Long-Term Savings of Investing in Spray Foam Insulation with 316 Insulation

Open-cell spray polyurethane foam is commonly sprayed into walls and ceilings to create an air seal and insulate the structure. It can be sprayed into open cavities in new and existing homes, commercial buildings and pole barns. It is also often sprayed in attics, crawl spaces, and rim joists to provide an effective thermal and moisture control layer.

The spray-applied open-cell foam insulation can be topped with cladding, such as wood or stucco, to meet the aesthetics of the building envelope. It is an ideal option for walls in climates with extreme temperature changes and can achieve R-values of up to R-40 when applied to the minimum insulating thickness required by most energy codes. In addition, spray-applied open-cell polyurethane foam can be sprayed to a thickness that will help reduce the amount of rainwater that penetrates through walls and roofs.
