A popular alternative to traditional fiberglass batt insulation, spray foam offers a higher R-value per inch. During installation, it expands to fill gaps and cracks to seal the “building envelope.” Spray foam is available in open and closed-cell options. Open-cell insulation can offer R-3.5 to R-6 per inch; closed-cell insulation is typically around R-6 per inch.

Unlike traditional insulation products, spray foam can be installed in attics and crawl spaces. Spraytech Insulators is an important consideration because these areas are often difficult to insulate with other types of insulation due to their small nooks and crannies. Foam insulation is the best option for these areas as it will expand to fill them and provide a seal.
The benefits of spray foam include:
Spray foam can reduce drafts, save on energy bills, strengthen the building structure, reduce mold and mildew, help with asthma and allergies and protect your family’s health. It also helps reduce sound from outside the home or office, which can be a big problem in busy city areas.
The spray foam can be installed in walls, ceilings and attics in new construction or remodeling projects. It is also used in commercial buildings, including hospitals, schools, hotels and offices. It is also used to insulate basements, crawlspaces and garages. It can help to reduce the number of heating and cooling units in a building, which will save on energy costs. It is an excellent choice for a green building project.
