Spray Foam Insulation

Builders in many parts of the country have begun to use spray foam insulation as an alternative to many other types of insulation. Why is this the case? Well there are several benefits that spray foam insulation offers over more traditional methods of insulating a home. For one, this type of insulation is significantly better than more traditional methods. Not only is the r-factor generally higher but it allows for a less centralized application. Being that it is sprayed, it has the opportunity to cover more area since it can fall into smaller crevices that traditional insulation can not seal. Builders have begun investing heavily in spray foam insulation equipment to improve the overall energy efficiency of their homes. This not only makes the home more marketable to potential buyers but allows the building contractor to market himself as a "green builder". So whether you are a seasoned contractor or a weekend warrior spray foam insulation could be a great way to go.
