What Is Spray Foam Insulation?

Spray foam insulation in the greater toronto area is an eco-friendly type of insulation that is used to insulate homes and pole barns. It can be sprayed into wall cavities, attics, basement rim joists, crawl spaces and knee walls. It is a durable, long-lasting and breathable type of insulation. It is also safe and does not contain any petrochemicals or harmful chemicals. It is a great alternative to traditional fiberglass insulation, which is composed of glass or wool.

The main components of spray foam are polyurethane and isocyanate, which create a chemical reaction when combined. As soon as the mixture is sprayed into an area it expands to fill every nook and cranny for an effective protective barrier. This type of insulation is especially useful for new construction or existing homes where the bare studs are exposed.

How Efficiency Spray Foam Insulation Ltd.’s Spray Foam Insulation Can Transform Your Home

The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) recommends homeowners who install spray foam keep paperwork from the installation to help them in the event that they decide to sell or remortgage their property. This includes independent test certificates for the product, as well as any documents from the installer that confirm that the work was done to RICS standards.

When installing spray foam, it is recommended that home occupants vacate the premises during the process, which can take up to a day. It is also important to make sure the room where spraying takes place is properly ventilated until it dries completely. This will help to prevent a strong, fishy smell from off-gassing, and avoid any other negative side effects like eye irritation.
