Insulation, Air Sealing And Vapor Barrier All In One Product!

Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) is an extremely versatile insulation and air sealant that when applied correctly at time of install, gives you a continuous air and vapor barrier on various areas of a building or structure including wall assemblies, ceiling assemblies or concrete walls or slabs.  

There are two main types of spray polyurethane foam (SPF) that you may hear of when researching this product. They are called “Open-cell” and “Closed-Cell”. Typically in our colder Canadian climates, closed-cell spray foam is the product of choice, as it offers the highest R-value per inch of material and gives the added benefit of providing both an air and vapor seal when applied at the required minimum thickness (or greater).

According to Natural Resources Canada, they estimate that 63.6% of a homes energy consumption is used for space heating. With such a high percentage of a homes energy usage going to space heating (and cooling), why wouldn’t you want to keep in as much of that heat as you can. The same can be said during the summer months when utilizing air conditioning…you want to keep as much of the heat from outside (and in your attic) out of the house as possible. 

Insulation’s main purpose, regardless of the type utilized, is to stop heat transfer across the insulation.

SPRAY FOAM ROOFING

Most people dealing with buildings that have flat roofs, don’t think of spray foam when it comes time to re-do your roof! Compared to tar & gravel roofing, spray polyurethane foam (SPF) with a silicone or polyurea top coat applied, gives you a complete air and moisture barrier on your roof. It is also typically cheaper than the costs to re-do a tar & gravel roof.

Another huge benefit is we can greatly reduce your buildings heat loss by adding additional R-value to your roof, through either 3lb exterior roofing foam, or a combination of 3lb closed-cell foam on the exterior, and 0.5lb open-cell foam applied on the interior.
