Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation can quickly rectify a problem that plagues many of today’s older homes or businesses: They either have no insulation or an insufficient amount of outdated fiberglass insulation, meaning they are wasting energy and money. The U.S. government’s energy labs, for example, estimate that air infiltration can waste up to 40 percent of every home heating and cooling dollar. That’s where spray foam insulation can make a difference.

Can that 40 percent add up? If your current utility bills are $200 a month, installing spray foam insulation could bring you back nearly $1000 in the first year alone. And spray foam insulation reduces construction costs by providing an air insulation and moisture barrier all in one project. It’s why the building industry has made the switch to spray foam insulation, projecting that 80 percent of all new homes are expected to be using it by 2010.

Let Foam Kit Solutions help you make the switch from fiberglass. We offer a wide range of residential and commercial spray foam insulation products that can have your property more energy efficient in no time. The products are easy to apply, especially in those hard-to-reach areas where installing fiberglass can be a difficult chore.

The problems with the insulation (if there is any) in those older homes and businesses are those cracks and gaps in the foundation, attic, basement, etc. All those air drafts and moisture cause your home to work harder to stay warm or cool. Spray foam insulation expands to nearly 100 times its original volume, so it fills in gaps much more easily than standard fiberglass insulation. Your house will expand and contract over time, but so will the spray foam insulation. And that means additional support to your building’s structure as well.

Energy efficiency isn’t the only benefit of spray foam insulation over standard fiberglass:

• Spray foam insulation increases air quality, something the Environmental Protection Agency says is a problem in many homes. Eliminating all that moisture that seeps into cracks will help block mold and potential pest problems Spray foam insulation can be a huge boost to those suffering from allergies or other respiratory ailments.
• Spray foam insulation is more environmentally friendly than fiberglass insulation.
• Spray foam insulation is a far better barrier against outdoor sounds traveling through your home or business, thus keeping the noise pollution down.
• Spray foam insulation, as a final product, is chemically dead and no safety risk to your family or tenants. Based on the EPA definition of Volatile Organic Compound, our products do not contain any VOCs.
