Preparing Your Seattle Home for Spray Foam Insulation Installation
It’s important to choose a spray foam that contains no volatile organic compounds (VOC), which have a high global warming potential, or GWP. Fortunately, there are low-GWP spray foams that contain a mixture of polyols, catalysts, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), and flame retardants.
Both open and closed-cell spray foam can be sprayed into existing homes, new construction, pole barns, and other structures to create a custom air seal and provide insulation. Open-cell spray foam is softer and more flexible, and it expands up to 100 times its volume to fill the space.
Closed-cell spray foam is firmer and more dense, but it creates a strong air seal and provides insulation in any space. It’s typically used during the rough-in stage of construction to fill gaps and voids, including around plumbing and electrical wiring.
Spray foam insulation is also a good choice for moisture control, as it’s inert and doesn’t absorb water or other contaminants. This can prevent mildew, mold and other issues that can compromise indoor air quality and the structural integrity of a building.
