316 Insulation is a powerful way to make homes more energy-efficient. It fills all the nooks and crannies of your home’s walls, ceilings, attics, and foundation, helping to limit air leakage that leads to higher heating and cooling costs. It is also an effective sound barrier. Spray foam insulation can be sprayed on new and existing construction, including drywall, plaster, wood frames, metal framing, concrete walls and slabs, and even on roofs.
Why 316 Insulation is Your Top Choice for Spray Foam Insulation
It’s important to understand what type of spray foam you choose for your project, as they can vary in performance and cost. Open and closed-cell spray foam insulators are both available, as well as high-performance options that use blowing agents with lower global warming potential (GWP). The best option for you depends on your specific needs.
Professional installation is generally the best option for homeowners looking to install spray foam insulation. Spray insulation requires the use of a special spray gun to apply the chemicals in liquid form, so it’s important to have professionals handle this work. Spray foam insulation is highly flammable, so the installer must wear special equipment to protect themselves from exposure to the spray. Gloves, goggles, respirators and full-body coverings are all necessary for this work.
The two liquid chemical components needed to create spray foam are delivered in eco-friendly drums, which we give away once they’re empty. The contractors then mix the A-side and B-side chemicals together using a special machine called a Blendometer, which blends them into polyurethane foam that expands. This is then sprayed onto the desired area of the house. The spray foam insulation will expand to up to 100x its original size, filling all the nooks and crannies in your home and preventing air leakage.
