Spray Foam Insulation for a Las Vegas Home During Another Hot Summer

Some calls are about saving money.

This one wasn’t.

The homeowner’s first words were something like, “I just want this house to stay comfortable.”

Living in Las Vegas long enough will do that to you. After a while, you’re not chasing the lowest electric bill anymore. You just want the upstairs to quit feeling like a different climate than the rest of the house.

It was already warm.

We got there pretty early.

Didn’t matter much.

The garage felt alright.

The attic didn’t.

One of the guys climbed up first and just looked back down at me.

“You coming?”

Not exactly an invitation.

Spray foam made the most sense.

Every house is a little different.

Sometimes blown-in insulation is the answer. Sometimes it isn’t.

This one really made sense for spray foam insulation.

Once we got started, you could watch the foam expand and seal everything up as we worked our way through the space. It’s one of those jobs where you don’t have to imagine what changed. You can actually see it happening.

I always end up standing there a minute after we’re done.

Not because anything’s wrong.

Just looking.

Making sure we didn’t miss anything tucked back in a corner.

That’s really what they wanted.

The homeowner wasn’t asking for magic.

They weren’t expecting the house to feel like forty degrees in August.

They just wanted to stop fighting the heat every afternoon.

Honestly…that’s a pretty reasonable goal around here.

We rolled the hoses up, closed the trailer, and headed out.

I remember looking back at the house before pulling away. Pretty quiet neighborhood. Not much moving except a couple of palm trees.

Hopefully, the next time that afternoon sun starts cooking the roof, the house hangs onto its cool air a little longer.

That’s the whole point.
