SPF Insulation

Plan for more comfort and
energy savings in your new home

Sprayed Polyurethane Foam provides a
complete, seamless building envelope,
creating a more comfortable indoor
environment for the life of your home.

spfpic1.jpg (6807 bytes) SPF completely and efficiently insulates and seals around penetrations through the building framework, such as electrical outlets and plumbing fixtures.

Top and bottom sill plates, energy heels and rim joists are sealed, along with other gaps normally found in residential construction.

SPF seals cracks, crevices and seams around
the perimeter of your home, giving you added
protection from unwanted air drafts and
damaging moisture. Proven more effective
than conventional insulation products.

The sprayed-in-place foam forms a seamless bond with building components to create a structurally sound, uniform, air-infiltration barrier. Its superior thermal properties perform in even the most extreme hot or cold climates.

You save energy dollars year after year because sprayed polyurethane foam insulation system delivers exceptionally good R-value for the life of the building.

Less heating or cooling is needed to control the temperature in your home. That's good for your budget and the environment!

SPF creates a protective thermal envelope around your living space.

It provides your home a fully sealed, seamless barrier against wind- and solar-driven moisture and unwanted air.

The Highest R-value in the Market
Insulation is rated in terms of thermal resistance - R-value - which indicates the resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating effectiveness. SPF has the highest R-value (7 per in.) of all readily available, cost-effective insulation available in the market today.

Reduces or Eliminates Convection Looping.
Temperature differences between the unconditioned outside air and the conditioned living space can create convective looping (warm air rising, cold air falling) within a stud cavity. The impact of this looping degrades the R-value of most common forms of insulation and causes additional load on your home's heating and cooling system. The superior R-value (7 per in.) and unique sealing characteristics of polyurethane foam reduce this temperature variance and the effect of convective looping, saving you energy dollars.

Meets Building Code Requirements.
Don't worry about durability. The foam is approved by all three national building codes and will perform for the life of your building. Its exceptional thermal and structural characteristics will save you, and generations to come, from the problems associated with the high cost of energy.

Creates a Healthy Living Space.
Sprayed polyurethane foam effectively protects your living space form unwanted moisture build-up and condensation caused by warm moist air meeting cool dry air within the building envelope (stud cavities, attics). Installed by a Qualified Contractor, the sprayed-in-place pol effectively seals your home against unwanted moisture. You can now use modern ventilation techniques to create the best, most habitable indoor living space free of excess moisture and airborne pathogens for a healthy, more comfortable home.

"Spray polyurethane foam insulation can be applied to a home
under construction and will not only insulate, but will also reduce
air leakage in the building envelope."

US Department of Energy Insulation Fact Sheet, August 1997

"Spray polyurethane foam alone can provide an air and
water-tight barrier."

US Department of Commerce brochure, NISTIR4821

Controlling Air Infiltration

spfpic5.jpg (12968 bytes) The answer to America's home energy-saving challenge.

United States Government energy labs estimate that air infiltration wastes up to 40% of every home heating and cooling dollar. It is one of the country's most critical home energy problems. Unfortunately, most residential buildings were constructed before the scope of the problem was widely known. But today, new homes are being built utilizing the SPF solution, right from the start. This is the latest money-saving technology for new home construction. The closed-cell nature of Polyurethane Foam stops air leakage problems at the source.
