Most consumers will understand why it’s so important to ensure that their homes and offices are adequately insulated. A well-insulated house will be a lot more energy-efficient. This is because the heated or cooled air inside stays inside.

This, in turn, means that your HVAC system doesn’t need to work as hard at maintaining the temperature you want, which in turn means reduced energy costs. 

There are a few different insulation materials that you can choose from, but in this post, we’ll focus on the benefits of the Annapolis Brothers Spray Foam Insulation

What is Spray Foam Insulation? 

Spray foam is composed of two different materials – Isocyanate and polyurethane. They are kept in separate containers and then sprayed into the area together. When the two mix, they produce a chemical reaction that causes them to expand and fill the space and then to harden. 

The Benefits Of This Insulation

Great at Insulating

Because the mixture expands to fill a space, there are no gaps left behind. This gives spray foam quite a significant advantage over insulation sheets. For example, you can be sure that every millimeter of space is covered. 

Better Energy Savings

The foam is quite dense once it hardens, which means that it provides an impenetrable barrier. This, in combination with the coverage it gives, makes it possible to save more energy than would be the case with more conventional methods. 

The Seal is Air Tight

The air won’t be able to leak out through little gaps between the beams and insulation because there won’t be any such gaps. The tight seal keeps the cooled or heated air inside and keeps the air outside from getting in. 

Provides Protection Against Moisture

When we think about insulation, we normally think about containing air. But what about moisture? Spray foam not only seals the area from the air but also resists moisture. So, where more conventional insulation materials might absorb water, you won’t have this problem with foam. 

Mold-Resistant 

The materials that foam insulation is made from have no organic material in them that mold or mildew can feed on. Also, because the foam is water resistant, any moisture sitting on top of it will dry off fairly quickly, leaving no moisture for mold or mildew.

Highly Durable

No insulation material is going to last forever, but this low maintenance option has a pretty impressive lifespan. You can expect up to twenty years before you need to consider replacing it. 

To Wrap Things Up

Spray foam, when properly installed, will:  

• Help you to reduce your energy bills 
• Keep your home at a more comfortable temperature
• Provide a durable and highly effective alternative to standard insulation
• Make it possible to insulate those hard to reach areas where standard insulation won’t work. 

The main benefit, though, is that it is incredibly adaptable. Whether you need to insulate a tiny bachelor apartment or a huge mansion, this is going to get the job done for you.
