Sprayed on Polyurene Foam Insulation
This is without question the best thing to happen to the building trade
in years. Foam insulation comes in both closed cell and open cell types.
Closed cell offers the highest R value inch for inch of any insulation.
Three inches of foam has an R value in excess of R-21. No longer do you
have to use 2x6 studs to get an acceptable R factor. This is the only insulation
which will give your house a 5-star energy rating. Our rigid foam will not
settle, compress or form gaps which allow air penetration. It contains no
formaldehyde, nor off-gassing.
Open cell foam insulation stops all air and moisture infiltration,
but offers half the R value of closed cell foam, thus requiring 2x6 walls.
However, it is considered to be the most green and environmentally friendly
insulation on the market today. Open cell insulation uses a water blown
agent partly made from soybean and corn products. This product is used
extensively as sound deadening in party walls as it offers superior qualities
when compared to other insulation. Finally it contains no formaldehyde,
CFCs, HFCs, HFA or HCFCs.
