HD Spray Foam is an energy efficient product that can reduce your home’s heating and cooling costs by sealing the building envelope. It is a highly effective insulation option for homeowners and contractors alike, and it is often used in conjunction with other energy efficiency measures to maximize savings.
How HD Spray Foam Insulation Boosts Energy Efficiency
The spray insulation is made from 2 different composite materials, polyurethane and isocyanate, which technicians mix onsite and apply with a special insulated gun to the walls of a space. The spray foam then expands, filling all the nooks and crannies where air might leak, such as cracks and gaps. Spray foam also fills voids and crevices that are more difficult to insulate with fiberglass batt insulation.
During the spraying and curing process, spray foam insulation off-gases a significant amount of volatile organic compounds, so it is important for homeowners to leave the house during these times. This is not only a safety measure for the occupants, but also to protect the health of the installers who will be working on your home.
While the application of spray foam insulation is relatively safe, it should only be applied by trained and licensed professionals to avoid harmful off-gassing. It is also recommended that occupants of the home stay away from the installation area until the spray foam has finished curing, which usually takes a few days. For those concerned about the environmental impacts of HFCs, there are now spray insulation products that use blowing agents with lower global warming potential. For example, BASF Walltite CM01 and Genyk Boreal Nature are both low GWP spray foams.
