SPF Insulation

Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) insulation offers a broad range of benefits.

There are some homeowners and commercial building owners who may not be as familiar with the characteristics and benefits of SPF insulation and why spray foam is a sensible choice today for insulation requirements.

When sharing information with potential customers who are inquiring about your company’s insulation services, you may need to further educate them about the advantages of SPF insulation.

The following is a round-up of several of the main advantages of SPF insulation. They can serve as valuable “selling points” as you explain why someone should choose spray foam insulation for their home.

Better protection

SPF insulation creates a durable, seamless layer of protection in homes and buildings. Spray foam insulation also offers a sturdy, durable barrier that helps shield the property from hot and cold and protecting a structure from water damage. SPF insulation’s R-value per inch is 6.8, which exceeds any other known insulation material.

Utility savings

SPF insulation is popular with property owners thanks to its ability to help reduce energy consumption. In fact, spray foam insulation is well known for its remarkable insulating properties.

How does it work? SPF insulation helps make a home or building much more energy efficient, which means you use less energy for heating and cooling. These features contribute to significant savings because of much lower utility bills, while also increasing a building’s structural integrity.

Flexibility to fill gaps and leaks

One of the unique properties inherent to SPF insulation is its flexible nature. Spray foam insulation, applied as a foam using SPF equipment, fills cracks and crevices easily that would otherwise be difficult to access with other types of insulation materials. For this reason, SPF insulation has the unique ability to prevent leaks and drafts in homes and buildings. This factor is important, in light of numerous studies, including those conducted by the Department of Energy that reveal that a home loses roughly 40 percent of its energy when air escapes through walls, windows, and doors.
