Residential Spray Foam
You can achieve thousands of dollars in energy savings, improve your comfort level and contribute to a greener environment by using spray foam insulation in your home. If you’re a current homeowner, no one has to tell you how costly it can be to keep your home comfortable. Let’s be honest, the costs will keep rising. Spray Foam Insulation will curb those costs forever.
When a home has been insulated with spray foam insulation, all surfaces are completely covered and protected. This prevents air leakage that conventional insulation allows, since cold air will travel around the edges of conventional insulation. Additionally, 2’ of closed cell 2lb insulation is an approved vapour barrier, not only blocking moisture, but also pollutants, dust, odors and allergens, creating a healthy interior environment for your family. Energy Savings and Environmentally Friendly!
According to the Canadian Department of Energy, heating and cooling the typical home consumes 50-70 percent of overall energy usage. By far, the largest reason for increased heating and cooling costs is unnecessary air leakage and poor thermal efficiency of traditional insulation products. Existing homes can be upgraded to increase energy efficiency and comfort significantly.
Is your home built well? Ask yourself these question:
- During hot or cold days (above 35 °C or below -3 °C ) does your heating/cooling system run almost continuously and have difficulty keeping the home at a comfortable temperature?
- Can you see the tops of your ceiling joists inside the attic?
- Do you have white or pink builder’s grade fiberglass in your attic?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you probably need Spray Foam Insulation!
By installing in your attic insulation and crawl space insulation, we can create an air-seal which reduces the heating and cooling energy costs for your home significantly. Your attic temperatures will be reduced from 140+ degrees to 70-80 degrees year round. This will keep your home considerably more comfortable, quieter and maintain healthier indoor air quality.
Since spray foam expands into the smallest cracks and holes, it has been proven to reduce the entry of unwanted pests and insects. Spray foam is a polyurethane product and does not act as a nesting ground or source of food for pests.
Spray Foam Insulation provides:
- Outstanding energy efficiency?
- Increased resale value
- Improved comfort and indoor air quality
- An essential element of an ENERGY STAR® Home
- Outstanding air sealing and thermal performance, filling all voids
Spray foam also creates structural strength. The application of spray foam actually strengthens a building’s structure. The expanding foam fills the gaps between each wall, floor or roof cavity. The studs, joists and sheathing are bonded together creating optimum structural strength. After curing, spray foam is durable and will not shrink, settle or disintegrate over time.
