Types of Spray Foam Insulation
The most popular type of spray foam insulation is polyurethane. It is made from two resins combined into a foam that can be applied to walls and ceilings. It is an excellent insulator, and the foam can be applied to a variety of surfaces, including metal. The foam is sprayed onto the surface and expands quickly. It fills all of the gaps and nooks, so there is no air movement or heat transfer.
Unlike traditional fiberglass and cellulose insulation, spray foam also acts as an air sealant, keeping the building sealed and eliminating air leaks that are a leading cause of high energy bills. This means that your HVAC system will not have to work as hard to keep the building at a comfortable temperature during North Carolina’s hot summer and cold winter.
The spray foam insulation process requires specialized equipment and knowledge of how to use it. While DIY kits are available, achieving consistent coverage and expansion is challenging for those who lack this experience. Additionally, the chemicals and fumes that are released during the spraying of the foam can irritate the eyes and lungs. If the worker is exposed to them for a long period of time, they can develop chemical bronchitis, which is a respiratory condition. This is why the latest technology in the industry uses low-VOC products that are less toxic and have shorter curing times.
