Spray foam insulation company seals the building envelope when used throughout a home, so air can’t leak in or out. This prevents a house from heating and cooling constantly, which saves on energy bills year-round. It also reduces the sources of mold, airborne pollutants and allergens like pollen and dust. That means you’ll spend less time with runny noses and antihistamines.

Unlike traditional fiberglass or cellulose, which can become clogged with dirt, mold and mildew, spray foam resists these substances and stays insulating. It’s ideal for attics, basements and crawl spaces because it can be applied directly to the walls. It’s also an excellent choice for new construction or renovations, because you can choose your insulation before drywall is installed.

The first step in spray foam installation is to prep the area to be sprayed. This includes removing any existing insulation and cleaning the surface before spraying. Depending on your climate zone, you’ll need to decide between open or closed-cell spray foam.

Closed-cell spray foam is generally more expensive than open-cell. However, it’s physically stronger and offers a better vapor barrier. It can be installed against wood, metal, masonry and concrete.

When choosing a brand of spray foam, opt for low-VOC spray foam that uses a blowing agent with a lower global warming potential (GWP) than hydrofluorocarbons. Good options include BASF Walltite CM01 and Genyk Boreal Nature. The lower GWP of these products makes them more environmentally friendly. You should also look for spray foam that contains recycled content.
