Spray foam insulation has been around for several decades, but it didn’t become commonplace in home construction until the 1980s. It is now one of the most popular insulation options available and can be used in new construction, attics, crawl spaces, and rim joists.
Unlike other types of insulation that are blown in or placed between wood studs, spray foam is sprayed onto surfaces. This creates an airtight seal in which the walls are completely enclosed, which is great for energy efficiency and soundproofing. The spray-on process also creates a strong barrier against mold, mildew, and other contaminants.

The spray-on application also creates an airtight seal, which makes it possible to prevent heat from escaping in the winter and cool air from leaking out in the summer. This can help reduce your heating and cooling costs significantly.
A secondary benefit of the air seal created by spray foam is that it stops drafts and cold spots. It is also great for blocking the transfer of moisture between exterior and interior walls that can lead to condensation on your drywall.
While there are DIY spray foam insulation kits on the market, it’s typically best to leave spray foam installation projects to the professionals. This will ensure that the job is done correctly, resulting in optimal energy efficiency and performance. Additionally, professionals have access to equipment that allows them to achieve consistent coverage and expansion across the entire project. They will also be able to choose the correct blowing agent for your project that won’t harm the ozone layer.
