Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation solves building insulation design problems because it combines proven thermal protection while also offering superior air barrier properties.
Spray Polyurethane is a spray applied cellular plastic that forms a continuous, monolithic barrier on walls, around corners, and on all contoured surfaces, and protrusions.
Spray Polyurethane exceeds all requirements for air barrier material as required in the National Building Code.
Having one of the highest R-Values per inch of any insulating material promotes the elimination of heat loss through cracks, seams, joints and gaps.
Thus energy costs are reduced and the building comfort is enhanced.
Foam Insulation Features
- CCMC Approved for Use in Buildings
- Meets CAN/ULC S705.1 Material Specification
- Excellent Insulating Properties (High R-Value)
- Tested by independent laboratories
- Applied exclusively by Certified Contractors under the requirements of CAN/ULC S705.2
- Rigid, does not settle over time
- Air Barrier function
- Application and curing temperatures -5C to +35C
- Service range temperature -60C to +80C
- Exceeds all building codes for air barrier systems
- Provides a drainage plane (water barrier)
Foam Facts
Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation provides:
- Energy Efficient Homes: heating and cooling costs can be reduced as much as 50%.
- A Reduction of Heating and Air Conditioning tonnage as much as 35% without the loss of efficiency and comfort
- Draft Free Environment: sealing of cracks, joints, etc, will prevent uncontrolled movement of air through the wall assemblies.
- Dust Free: homes insulated with Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation show a remarkable reduction of dust accumulation
- Quiet homes: the open cells and the semi-rigid polyurethane mass wil absorb and reduce the sound transmission
- Improved Air Quality
- Stable Insulation: not subjected to structural deterioration or decomposition, will not settle
- Strong Adhesion to the Surface
- Comfort
Residential
There are many uses for spray polyurethane foam insulation in the residential sector. Some areas that benefit from spray polyurethane foam insulation include:
- Walls - both interior and exterior applications
- Foundations - both exterior and interior applications
- Crawl Spaces both exterior and interior applications
- Ceilings - including cathedral ceilings and flat ceilings
- Header spaces in basement and between floors
- Door and windows can be used to seal between frames and wall openings
- Pipes and Ducts - including those underground
- Swimming pools
- Spas and hot tubs
Commercial
There are many uses for spray polyurethane foam insulation in the commercial sector. Some areas that benefit from spray polyurethane foam insulation include:
