DESIGN PROFESSIONALS

Closed-cell spray foam offers numerous design advantages:

Range of applications - Use in wood or metal-framed buildings. Use in walls, floors, ceilings, under roof decks, as roof system, or attic floors, crawl spaces, basements and foundations; spray foam can go nearly anywhere!

Diversity - Closed-cell spray foam has numerous unique properties that allow for its application on the interior or exterior of any structure. Spray foam is extremely lightweight and effortlessly adaptable to irregularly-shaped structures and impossible-to-flash penetrations. Spray foam roofing also offers a variety of colors and textures as the finished surface.

Simpler construction - Spray foam eliminates tedious multiple installation steps for air barriers, and eliminates much time lost to caulking, taping and sealing. Ease of spray foam installation reduces construction time, allowing greater maneuverability.

Downsizing of HVAC equipment - Sealing the building envelope allows the use of smaller HVAC equipment. Air-handling units, ducting and HVAC-systems operate more efficiently in the semi-conditioned sprayed foam environment. Both Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and Oak Ridge National labs have documented the energy savings and superior performance from spray foam systems.

Green standards - Closed-cell spray foam reduces construction time, as it accomplishes multiple building envelope requirements in one seamless, monolithic application. And according to US Federal Standards, spray foam is not a volatile organic compound (VOC). Coupled with this, spray foam has no harmful ozone-depleting emissions. As foam insulation is an on-site spray from a bulk liquid, a lessened waste footprint is also achieved, compared to traditional insulation methods.
