Spray foam insulation works by resisting conduction and convection, preventing heat from moving in or out of the home. It helps keep warm air inside in the winter and cool air outside in the summer, significantly reducing your energy costs year-round.

It is sprayed as liquid, then expands in place. The expansion allows it to fill the nooks and crannies of your home, increasing its insulating power. The foam also seals the air leaks that cause most of your energy loss.

Closed-cell spray foam insulation is rigid, hard foam with a density of 1-2 pounds per cubic foot (specialty closed-cell products can range up to 10 lbs/cubic foot). It is formulated with smaller cells that trap an insulating gas and create an effective air barrier that increases the R-value.

Unlike fiberglass and cellulose, closed-cell spray foam is a green product that contains no added ozone depleting chemicals. Its R-value is based on a formula that uses blowing agents with low Global Warming Potential (GWP) and a blend of polyols derived from renewable plant sources, post-consumer recycled plastics, and pre-consumer recycled materials.

It can be sprayed in open or closed framing, as well as in walls, ceilings, attics, and foundations. It can be used in conjunction with other insulation products, including cellulose and fiberglass. The installation process typically begins with removing any existing insulation from the area that is to be sprayed. It takes about 24 hours for the spray foam to cure, and it is not safe for re-occupancy until then. While it is curing, it can release odors that are unpleasant for some people.
