Pros

Superior Insulation Performance

Spray foam insulation provides excellent thermal insulation, sealing gaps, and crevices to prevent air leakage better than traditional insulation materials like fiberglass or cellulose.

Structural Enhancement

Spray foam insulation can add structural integrity to buildings by reinforcing walls and roofs, making them more resistant to wind and seismic forces.

Energy Efficiency

By minimizing air infiltration, spray foam helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures, reducing the workload on heating and cooling systems and lowering energy bills.

Moisture Control

Closed-cell spray foam acts as a moisture barrier, preventing mold, mildew, and moisture-related issues, which can improve indoor air quality and prolong the life of the building structure.

Longevity

Properly installed spray foam insulation can last for the life of the building without the need for replacement, providing long-term energy savings and comfort benefits.

Versatility

Spray foam can be applied to various surfaces and in hard-to-reach areas, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including attics, walls, crawl spaces, and roofs.

Click on the risks below to learn about our approach to ensure you are informed of any possible issues and the proactive measures we take to ensure your satisfaction and safety.

Risk: Initial Cost

Spray foam insulation typically has a higher upfront cost compared to traditional insulation materials, which can be a barrier for some homeowners or businesses.

The Superior Advantage

Long term savings on heating and air for the lifetime of your home.

Risk: Installation Complexity

Proper installation of spray foam insulation requires specialized equipment and trained professionals. Improper installation can lead to performance issues or health and safety concerns.

The Superior Advantage

Our installers are certified and bonded to ensure your peace of mind. We are meticulous with every detail in order to protect your home, keep it clean, and make sure the job is done right.

Risk: Curing Time

Spray foam insulation requires time to cure and expand fully, which may delay construction or renovation timelines. Occupants may need to vacate the premises during installation and curing.

The Superior Advantage

With proper air exchange and ventilation, we ensure that curing time is at a minimum.

Risk: Environmental Impact

Some spray foam insulation products contain chemicals with high global warming potential (GWP) and ozone-depleting substances (ODS). However, there are eco-friendly options available with lower environmental impact.

The Superior Advantage

When compared to the production, transportation, and waste of traditional fiberglass insulation, spray foam has a smaller environmental impact and has a compounding benefit due to reduce energy use for heating and cooling.

Risk: Potential Health Risks

During installation, spray foam insulation can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other chemicals into the air, which may cause respiratory irritation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Proper ventilation is essential during and after installation to minimize health risks.

The Superior Advantage

While VOCs cannot be fully eliminated during installation, Superior ensures that there is proper ventilation and air exchange so that VOCs do not linger in your home for long.
Spray foam insulation is a high-performance insulation material applied as a liquid that expands into a foam, filling gaps and crevices to create an effective air barrier and thermal barrier in residential and commercial buildings.
Spray foam insulation offers superior thermal performance, energy efficiency, moisture control, versatility, and long-term savings compared to traditional insulation materials. It can also enhance structural integrity and improve indoor air quality.
Unlike fiberglass or cellulose insulation, which can leave gaps and allow air infiltration, spray foam insulation provides a seamless air barrier, reducing energy loss and improving comfort. It also has a higher R-value per inch, meaning it provides better insulation with less thickness.
When installed by trained professionals following safety guidelines, spray foam insulation is safe. However, during installation, it’s essential to vacate the premises and allow proper ventilation to dissipate any off-gassing. Once cured, spray foam insulation is inert and poses no health risks.
Properly installed spray foam insulation can last for the life of the building without needing replacement. It remains effective and does not settle or degrade over time like some traditional insulation materials.
While some spray foam insulation products contain chemicals with high global warming potential (GWP) and ozone-depleting substances (ODS), there are eco-friendly options available with lower environmental impact. Look for products labeled as low-VOC or environmentally friendly.
The cost of spray foam insulation depends on factors such as the size of the project, the type of foam used (open-cell or closed-cell), and the local market rates. While spray foam insulation may have a higher upfront cost than traditional insulation materials, it offers long-term energy savings and benefits.
The installation time for spray foam insulation varies depending on the size and complexity of the project. It typically takes a few days for installation and curing, during which occupants may need to vacate the premises.
