Advantages of Using Spray Foam Insulation
By combining two composite materials, polyurethane and isocyanate, a foam is formed and it’s used for insulation. This is caused by a chemical reaction once these two materials are combined. They are sprayed simultaneously in the area where the insulation will go and will expand and fill the area. It will harden and form a protective layer. This is how a spray foam insulation is installed. If you use this method of insulation for your home, you will enjoy the following advantages:
1. It is the most popular type of insulation because it keeps the area that it is placed into tightly sealed. Because of its expansive nature, even the tiniest hole of that area will be filled. There is no chance for air to get through the area because of how tight it covers it. You will not have any issues with regard to any air infiltration inside your home at all.
2. You can expect for a lower energy bill if you use spray foam insulation. Most types of insulation can give you a maximum of 30% savings. But with spray foam, you can enjoy up to 50% of savings from your energy bills. You do not have to worry about your HVAC unit as well. Since your home is fully insulated, the HVAC unit will not be overworked. It can provide your home the right temperature. You do not have to deal with fluctuating temperature.
3. Spray foam is a great moisture barrier. Since it penetrates even the smallest holes and cracks, it gives your home a complete seal. Since it will not absorb water, you do not have to worry about water getting through those spaces that are sealed by the foam. You do not have to worry about any moisture getting in your property. Since moisture cannot penetrate anymore, you do not have to worry about dealing with molds as well. Your home will have lesser problems as the years go by.
