How Spray Foam Insulation Can Improve Energy Efficiency
Thinking about adding spray foam insulation to your home? It's a great choice! Spray foam insulation lets you reduce your energy consumption and lower your carbon footprint.
Here are some reasons spray foam insulation does a good job of improving energy efficiency.
Enhanced Insulation Properties
Unlike traditional insulation materials like fiberglass or cellulose, spray foam insulation creates an airtight seal that effectively minimizes air leakage and thermal bridging.
The result? It significantly reduces the amount of heat transfer between the inside and outside of a building, helping to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature year-round.
R-value measures the thermal resistance of insulation. The R-value of spray foam insulation is very high, meaning that when you install it, your home will require less energy for heating and cooling.
Air Sealing
One of the primary advantages of spray foam insulation is its ability to act as an air barrier. Traditional insulation materials often leave gaps and cracks, which allow air infiltration. Air infiltration makes your home feel drafty and can result in temperature fluctuations inside the home.
Spray foam, by contrast, fills every crack and crevice, sealing the building envelope very tightly.
When you use spray foam insulation, you prevent unwanted moisture and pollutants from entering the building. That means you reduce your chances of mold growth, too.
Longevity and Durability
Spray foam insulation just plain lasts longer than other insulation options.
Its closed-cell structure resists moisture, mold, and pests, ensuring that the insulation remains intact and effective. Unlike traditional materials that lose effectiveness over time, it also maintains its insulating properties without settling or degrading.
You reduce waste and environmental impact. You also save a boatload of money.
Soundproofing Ability
One of the reasons people love spray foam insulation is it results in a quieter home. The dense nature of the foam effectively absorbs and reduces airborne noises, making it an ideal choice.
By minimizing sound transmission through walls and ceilings, spray foam insulation creates a quieter and more comfortable indoor environment. If you live in a noisy part of the city, it can save your sanity.
