Spray foam insulation as a liquid then expands and hardens to form an airtight seal. This creates a strong barrier that significantly reduces energy costs by resisting the flow of heat, cold and vapor. It also reduces noise and creates a healthy indoor environment.
However, there are some things to consider before deciding to use spray foam. First, it’s very difficult to remove. It’s also not recyclable and will end up in landfills at the end of its life. This is a concern for homeowners that may want to sell their home in the future or for those with mortgages and insurance companies that don’t approve of alternative thermal products.

It is best to only use professional insulation installers who have been trained in the safety protocols of installing spray foam and are aware of the potential dangers.
