AccuSeal Spray Foam Insulation
Spray foam insulation in Newport, NY is a safe and energy-efficient choice for your home. It doesn’t sag, settle, or decay over time and requires minimal maintenance. It also lasts for the lifetime of your home or commercial structure, making it one of the best investments you can make in your property.
Closed-cell spray foam creates an air and vapor barrier in one. This means it doesn’t need a vapor barrier installed over it, saving you valuable installation time and money. This type of spray foam can also be DIYable, with kits available for homeowners to use on their own.
The Science Behind Spray Foam Insulation: How It Creates a Tight Seal
Open-cell spray foam is a softer and more flexible material that doesn’t have the same closed-cell structure as its cousin, but it does fill in cracks and voids during the rough-in stage of construction to ensure a tight seal. It also doesn’t retain water, so it can be used in damp areas such as crawl spaces, basements, knee walls, and bonus rooms.
The chemicals in spray foam insulation off-gas while curing, so it is important to wear goggles, respirators, and a full face mask when working with it. It’s also important to work in well-ventilated areas or at least outside during the application process, preferably when temperatures are above 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
Professional contractors are recommended, especially when it comes to installing spray foam, as they have access to equipment that can produce consistent coverage and expansion. Additionally, they’ll be able to monitor the amount of foam being applied and its temperature to ensure quality and efficiency.
