Spray foam insulation is a cutting-edge energy efficiency solution that can improve a home’s comfort, reduce utility bills, and protect against moisture issues. It creates a seamless, airtight barrier that prevents energy loss, and it can save on heating and cooling costs. Strategically installed spray foam insulation can also reduce noise and improve indoor air quality, when paired with air purifiers.

When properly installed, closed-cell spray foam insulation offers a high R-value and provides significant thermal performance in walls and roofs. This rigid insulation can add strength to structures and helps reinforce the integrity of the building, especially in wall corners and voids. Closed-cell spray foam insulation also acts as a water seal, protecting against infiltration and moisture.

Open-Cell Spray Foam Insulation

While it doesn’t provide as much R-value per inch as closed-cell spray foam, open-cell spray foam is still a valuable choice for homes in extreme climates like Cary, NC. This lightweight insulation is much more affordable and effective at soundproofing, as a single application can completely fill nooks and crannies that are difficult to insulate with traditional fiberglass batts. Open-cell spray foam also manages moisture better than fibrous insulation, which may attract and retain moisture, leading to mold and mildew.

It is important to choose a professionally licensed spray Insulation Contractor for proper installation. An experienced technician can use advanced tools and monitor the spray process to ensure consistent coverage, expansion, and uniform thickness. This will maximize energy efficiency and ensure that the spray foam is performing to its potential. Proper ventilation is essential during and after spray foam insulation is installed to allow any fumes to disperse. It is recommended to wait 24 hours before ventilating to ensure the foam has had time to fully expand and cure.
