Unlike other spray foam insulation types, spray foam is a combination of both an insulator and an air barrier. It seals the nooks and crannies that cause energy to escape a building, driving up heating and cooling costs. When properly installed, it can reduce these costs by up to 50% right away.

Spray foam can be installed during the rough-in stage of construction, or retrofitted into walls and ceilings. It comes in both open and closed cell varieties. Generally speaking, closed-cell spray foam is more durable and offers better R-value per board foot than open-cell spray foam. It also forms a superior vapor barrier, which can save homeowners the cost of having to apply one themselves after the spray foam dries.

Another advantage of spray foam is its ability to conform to the unique design of a building, making it easy to fit hard-to-reach areas. This helps to maximize a building’s energy efficiency, which in turn cuts home and business owners’ utility bills.
