Spray Foam Insulation: Efficient and Durable Product for Insulation


 
Home Improvement
Spray foam insulation is an environment friendly material used for the insulation of houses. It has taken over the market of traditional insulation products due to more efficiency and durability.

Spray Foam Insulation allows residential and commercial structures to be more sustainable by making houses more energy efficient, healthier, and durable than traditionally insulated homes. Most spray foam materials are water assisted and soy-based, so they do not have much of a negative impact on the environment and can provide the homeowner with decreased energy costs in the end.

Most traditional spray foam materials are made of glass or cellulose, which are not that environment friendly. However, spray-on insulation, made of polyurethane foam, is pumped through pressurized spray nozzles. Once sprayed, it expands to one hundred times its original size and provides a thermal seal and it utilizes renewable resources. The product also can be water-blown which means it is more environmental friendly than traditional one. When it expands, it fills each cavity, crevasse and hole to create a sealed envelope. If properly installed, most spray foam does not usually foster mold or insects and does not break down, hence creates a sealed interior, blocking unwanted pollution out. Spray foam insulation adheres to most material, such as wood and steel and can be used for new constructions or renovations. If the installation is correct, this product poses few issues with properly installed electrical wiring.

Spray foam insulation can seal and fill all the tiny cracks and seams. The material helps to eliminate energy wasting air filtration which can save on framing costs, as well as window and door jambs. This type of product also helps control moisture condensation because it will not shrink and it is fire resistant. In addition, the environment friendly product has been known to alleviate the discomfort associated with indoor allergies and other airborne illness.

If an individual decides to get spray foam, they must understand that the initial insulation costs may be higher than with traditional foam material. The initial cost of using it can be more expensive than using traditional materials. Even though it is more expensive, after insulation you could lower your utility bill by as much as thirty percent. This means you could pay back the cost difference within years of installation. Spray foam insulation is also not a do-it-yourself procedure and therefore you can not cut costs by installing the material yourself. The insulation should be installed by independent certified contractors and must take place after the electrical, plumbing and mechanical systems are installed. Only trained professionals should install it because it requires specialized sophisticated equipment to install it properly. In addition, it can be very messy and complicated as well. A contractor should also be trained to ensure that the products are properly installed. You should also work with electricians and plumbers who are familiar with working on this product. Since it is fairly new, there may not be many contractors in the area who can apply insulation.

Being a complicated and messy process, it will be easier and more effective in new construction rather than existing homes. Once installed properly, it takes care of the health, safety and comfort of your house.

For construction of houses and buildings, make use of spray foam insulation which has variety of benefits, including energy efficiency, cost effectiveness, and high hazard safety. Visit the website http://www.apexfoam.us to learn about the product and its benefit.
