This is a question that we get asked often, and the answer is always yes. Spray foam insulation is safe when installed properly by a qualified and experienced Spray Foam Technician. However, there are some potential health risks associated with exposure to the chemicals used in spray foam, especially during and directly following the installation process. Spray foam insulation emits relatively low fumes that will dissipate. Therefore, Koala Insulation of Central CT follows the EPA recommendation for home occupants (including pets) to stay away from the area for at least a 24-hour period after spray foam has been applied to give the gas or fumes a chance to dissipate. After that period, the area is perfectly safe for humans or animals to return to the sprayed area.

The Main Concern

Most consumers are concerned with the use of isocyanates, which are a type of chemical that can cause respiratory problems, skin irritation, and eye inflammation. Isocyanates are released into the air during the spray foam application process, and they can linger in the air for several hours after the insulation has been applied. Once the spray foam has cured, it is generally considered to be safe. However, it is important to ventilate the area well during and after installation and to avoid contact with the insulation until it has had a chance to cure.

Here are some of the top reasons to choose spray foam insulation:
