Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation

While traditional insulation like fiberglass and cellulose can be effective, spray foam is much more efficient. This is due to its ability to resist both conduction and convection, thereby keeping your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. This type of energy efficiency results in lower utility expenditures and reduces environmental impact.

Flatland Roofing & Insulation also helps with indoor air quality. The tight seal it creates prevents polluted outdoor air from making its way into a home or business. This helps keep your family or employees healthy, and it ensures that your HVAC air filters don’t get overloaded with dust, dirt, and other debris.

Spray foam insulation also improves a building’s sound resistance. This can be especially important in areas that experience a lot of traffic, such as kitchens and bedrooms. Foam insulation provides a solid barrier against noise and helps to make rooms more comfortable.

Transforming Your Home: The Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation

Another benefit of spray foam insulation is its ability to stop moisture from damaging the roof and walls. It does this by preventing water from passing through the roof if sprayed on the attic floor, or slowing the transfer of moisture into the wood framing and plywood decking if sprayed on the wall.

Spray foam is sprayed onto surfaces such as the attic floor, attic rafters, and wood frame walls, as well as around vents and other openings in a building. It is an ideal solution for hard-to-reach spots and spaces where other types of insulation cannot be installed. However, it is not recommended for use in a building with existing asbestos. In addition, spray foam contains polyurethane and isocyanate, which may cause skin irritation if contacted. Therefore, it is important to have this type of insulation installed by professionals who can provide the proper safety equipment.
