Spray foam insulation is an excellent way to save energy. It seals gaps and leaks to keep warm air inside in winter and cool air outside in summer. This reduces the workload on HVAC systems, cutting utility costs year-round. It also reduces odors and pests, making homes more comfortable for occupants to relax in.

Spray foam is an excellent choice for new construction and existing walls, attics, crawl spaces, and rim joists. It can be sprayed into wall cavities, around electrical outlets and light fixtures. It’s also great for filling in crevices, corners, and other areas where other types of insulation can’t reach. Spray foam is durable, and unlike fiberglass batts, it won’t lose its shape over time.

While DIYers might be tempted to try and handle the installation themselves, it’s best left to a professional. Homeowners need to be careful not to let themselves be poisoned by isocyanates, a dangerous chemical that off-gasses from spray foam during the application process. Prolonged exposure to isocyanates can cause respiratory irritation, bronchitis, and other health issues.

Another important benefit of spray foam is that it prevents air leaks, allowing the building to maintain a constant temperature. This cuts the cost of heating and cooling by eliminating the need to constantly run the furnace and AC to compensate for escaping air. It also helps improve indoor air quality by keeping polluted outdoor air out, and it dampens sound, so occupants can relax in peace.
