HD Spray Foam is a high-performance insulator that can be used in new construction homes, attics, crawl spaces and rim joists. It can also be applied to existing homes or pole barns that are in need of additional insulation. While there are many benefits to this type of insulation, there are a few drawbacks homeowners should keep in mind when considering spray foam.

The spray-on application of spray foam creates a tight building envelope that improves energy efficiency. However, it also off-gases a significant amount of volatile organic compounds during and after installation. These chemicals can be harmful to occupants and need to be properly ventilated during and after spraying.

Spray Foam Insulation: Why HD Spray Foam is the Top Choice

Closed-cell and open-cell spray foam both insulate well, but closed-cells are more durable. It is also a bit more expensive than open-cell, but it creates an effective vapor barrier and doesn’t require homeowners to apply another vapor barrier after the spray dries.

Homeowners should choose a spray foam product that uses low-global warming potential blowing agents. Global warming potential (GWP) is a measure of how much a gas contributes to climate change on a per-kilo basis. Carbon dioxide has a GWP of 1, while methane gas has a GWP of 28 to 36.

In addition to improving a house’s energy efficiency, spray foam can reduce noise from outside. This helps to make a home more comfortable, especially for those who live in noisy areas or want to keep out the noise of late-night parties and active kids. It can also help alleviate seasonal allergies by creating a healthy air barrier that reduces mold, dust and other allergens.
