What Is Spray Foam Insulation?What Is Spray Foam Insulation?

Batt insulation isn’t your typical insulating material. It’s composed of two separate chemicals – polyol resin and a form of isocyanate – which when sprayed onto a surface undergo a rapid chemical reaction that causes the foam to expand and fill spaces in your home or metal building. This helps it fit into hard-to-reach or oddly shaped spaces and creates an airtight seal. After being sprayed, the foam hardens within seconds to form a durable and permanent insulation that never loses its R-value.

When properly installed, spray foam insulation will reduce the conduction and convection of heat in and out of your home or metal building, which in turn helps cut energy bills and saves you money on heating and cooling. By preventing the transfer of heat through your walls, ceilings and floors, it will keep warm air trapped inside during North Carolina winters and cool air during summers. This will lead to fewer days when your furnace or air conditioner is running, which can significantly cut your energy bills.

Spray foam is typically applied in areas where different materials meet, such as brick and siding or a chimney and foundation. It can also be used in the attic, basement, crawlspace and in the interior of your metal building or pole barn. It’s important to use a professional installer to determine the proper R-value, application rate and density for your project. They will also advise you when a fire barrier is needed, as well as any other necessary surface preparations before spraying.
