When breaking ground for a new home or business, there are so many things to take into consideration. It is easy to get focused on the end result and sometimes overlook some of the internal aspects. We have found that things like insulation can be trivial in nature, but have the biggest impact. The efficiency gained from your insulation choices can offer savings in many other area. Because of the thermal efficiency gained from our product offering, you can expect the needs of your HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning) to be downsized.
This in turn seals them up, stopping air exchange into and out of your home. When you decide to go with spray foam insulation for your home, there is a choice of two different applications: Closed and Open-Cell Foam. The most cost-effective option for residential projects is open-cell foam, which does an excellent job of providing an air barrier in most applications. For a higher insulating value, closed-cell foam is the best bet. The finished product is both lightweight and extremely strong. Its high compressive strength increases the structural stability of the home.
You can also retrofit part of your home that has never had insulation. We'll assess these areas and provide a spray foam insulation estimate to maintain a low energy use. Occasionally homeowners need a wall, ceiling or flooring insulated to prevent drafts. Like open-cell spray foam, closed-cell foam expands to fill gaps and cracks as soon as it's applied. So what's the difference? While open-cell becomes sponge-like, allowing the passage of moisture, closed-cell spray foam cures to a hard, smooth-surface mass.
Designing, building or retrofitting an AirTight home is a professional approach to identifying traditional building envelope problems and correcting them through the use of spray foam insulation and other air sealing products. Insulation should add value to energy savings, indoor air quality, safety, durability and comfort. AirTight SprayFoam insulation is designed to meet all of these demands. With the addition of AirTight SprayFoam, homeowner's gain "peace of mind" that their home delivers maximum protection against energy loss and maximum comfort for their family.
