Spray Foam Insulation
Homeowners are drawn to spray foam insulation because it is a premium product that saves energy. It does this by sealing air leaks in the building envelope, which results in lower heating and cooling bills year-round. The air seal created by spray foam also prevents mold and mildew. The foam can be sprayed in attics, crawl spaces, rim joists and unfinished walls of new construction or pole barns. Spray foam is installed by professional contractors who use specialized trucks and trailers equipped with large insulated tanks that mix and spray the foam in a controlled environment.Find out :https://qualityinsulationva.com/

Spray foam is a two-part liquid that expands as it is sprayed, filling every crevice and nook in the attic or wall. It is applied with a gun and is more efficient than traditional fiberglass batt insulation. The spray foam also provides much better coverage and can be sprayed on all sides of the attic or wall.
There are 2 types of spray foam: open and closed cell. Closed-cell spray foam offers a higher R-value per inch and adds structural strength to the wall, ceiling or roof assembly. It is also impermeable to moisture and has a sound dampening effect.
Open-cell spray foam has a lower R-value but is cheaper. It allows water to move through it and does not promote the growth of mildew or mold. Both types of spray foam can be used with a vapor barrier. Many spray foam companies offer a soybean-based insulation that uses water as a blowing agent and has a negligible GWP (Global Warming Potential). This type of spray foam is more environmentally friendly than the traditional petroleum-based products.
