Strategic Spray Foam Insulation

Strategic Spray Foam Insulation, LLC insulation is a cost-effective way to increase the energy efficiency of your home or commercial property. It can be used in walls and roofs to create an airtight seal that reduces your heating and cooling costs. It also adds structural strength to walls and roofs, enhancing their stability and durability. Additionally, it absorbs sound, reducing noise by up to 50% and creating a quiet living space. Finally, it helps to prevent moisture from entering the home or commercial property, preventing mildew and mold.

Spray Foam Insulation vs. Traditional Insulation: Which is Better

Unlike fiberglass and cellulose, spray foam does not lose its R-value over time. It is also more effective than other types of insulation in reducing a building’s energy consumption, and it can save homeowners up to 50% in utility bills right away. It is available in open and closed-cell formulas, allowing homeowners to choose the type that suits their specific needs.

Professional installation is recommended, as it can ensure consistent coverage and expansion throughout the project. In addition, spray foam professionals will have access to technologies that help them achieve precise insulation performance. This is particularly important in areas that are difficult to reach, such as crawl spaces and attics.

In addition, spray foam insulation does not require the use of a blowing agent like carbon dioxide. These blowing agents have a global warming potential (GWP) of 3,400 times more than carbon dioxide on a per-kilo basis, so their elimination from the insulation process is a significant benefit for the environment.
