As one of the most effective types of insulation, spray foam offers superior coverage as well as added protection against airflow and moisture. This makes it a great option for vulnerable areas of your home, like roof decks, rim joists, crawl spaces, and basement walls. Here are some of the reasons that homeowners in Greater Rochester, and the surrounding counties are choosing spray foam insulation.
Spray Foam Insulates & Air Seals
One of the great things about spray foam insulation is that it prevents both heat transfer and airflow. It is made from a mixture of polyurethane and isocyanate, which when combined create a foam that conforms to its surroundings and hardens as it cures. This gives spray foam the ability to insulate hard to reach areas and excellent air sealing qualities, as well as giving you two services in one product.
Ultimate Protection from the Elements
Spray foam insulation is known for its high performance. This strong layer of protection can help make your home comfortable throughout every season of the year along all while making your home more comfortable to heat and cool. Spray foam insulation can improve your homes energy efficiency, improve your HVAC or heat pump performance, and even extend its lifespan.
Spray Foam Deters Moisture, Mold, and Mildew
Spray foam is filled with small air bubbles, known as cells, that help give it its insulative and air sealant properties. Closed-cell spray foam, which we install at Wise Home Energy, has completely enclosed cells that are close together to create a rigid structure and makes it resistant to moisture and vapor. Not only will this moisture-resistant insulation improve your home’s indoor air quality, but it will help strengthen its structure as well.
