Spray Foam Insulation in Wakefield, MA
Hello readers!
Thank you all so much for your interest and constant feedback!
Today was Day 2 in Wakefield, MA. We are spraying 1.8 Lb. closed-cell Emega Soy-based Spray Foam Insulation in the wall cavities and roof rafters to ensure a tight seal. This house was gutted and renovated and all of the spray areas are exposed. Three inches in the walls (R-20) and five inches in the rafters (R-33). The understatement is the R-value as far as spray foam goes.
Spray foam can insulate and seal cavities that fiberglass simply cannot. Around pipes, corner joists, behind bathtubs…the possibilities are endless. Taking an R-value and multiplying the air-sealing effects makes spray foam insulation an unbeatable choice.
The biggest challenge when installing spray foam insulation is ensuring that the home is completely air sealed, especially in a renovation project. There is an endless amount of gaps and holes in corner joints, behind built-in units, above and below poorly measured studs, etc…
The one thing that installing spray foam insulation can ensure is that your home will withstand the harsh environmental conditions exponentially better than if you were to use a fiberglass product. Not only can it keep the inside from feeling the effects of the outside temperature but closed-cell spray foam significantly increases the structural integrity of the home.
