How is Spray Foam Insulation Installed?

Spray foam insulation is a cost-effective, energy efficient and environmentally friendly way to insulate your home or commercial building. It is installed between the studs in a wall, providing a custom air seal that eliminates energy loss and improves home comfort.

The process starts with the contractor removing any existing insulation and then cleaning the area to be sprayed. Foam insulation can be applied to attics, crawl spaces and rim joist in new and existing homes as well as unfinished pole barns and concrete block walls. The crew uses a large, high-end spray foam rig to install the insulation. This rig is filled with two chemicals called isocyanate and polyol resin. The isocyanate and polyol resin are mixed together in the rig, which creates spray foam of any desired thickness. The technician inside the rig can easily adjust the foam density for each project.

When the insulator is sprayed, it expands into place and fills in the gaps, holes, and cracks. This can help reduce or even eliminate heating and cooling loss from the building envelope, saving you up to 50% on your utility bills.

Another benefit of spray foam is that it can reduce noise transmission. This can be especially helpful in urban areas where outside noise can disrupt your sleep. Spray foam also helps prevent the buildup of ice dams in attics, by keeping the warm air in the house from being forced up into the attic space.
