When it comes to building a new property or fixing what is already in place, the Blown in Insulation used is incredibly important. Without it, a structure can suffer from structural damage and high energy costs. Spray foam insulation is a premium choice that offers both long term and immediate benefits.

How Spray Foam Insulation Improves Indoor Air Quality

This premium product acts as a weatherizer and an insulator, closing the nooks and crannies that allow air to escape and drive up utility bills. It can be applied to roofs, walls, basements, and attics. It is also a great moisture barrier. This can be particularly useful in coastal areas where hurricanes and extreme winter storms are common occurrences. It helps to prevent rot and mold in the walls and ceiling and even in the roof, making it a good choice for homes with leaky or damaged roofs.

The other benefit of spray foam is that it seals the building envelope, blocking convective heat transfer from outside to inside in the winter and vice versa in the summer. This allows the home to maintain a stable temperature and reduces the workload of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system.

The HVAC system uses up a lot of energy trying to create a stable indoor environment, but the added benefit of spray foam insulation is that it can reduce this load by as much as 50% right away. The key is to allow time for the foam to fully cure and practice proper ventilation techniques. This includes opening windows, using fans, and wearing protective gear. It can also be helpful to monitor indoor air quality and consult with professionals if concerns arise about potential health risks.
