Understanding Spray Foam Insulation
Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation (SPF) is lightweight, rigid, flexible, wind-resistant, and highly effective in extreme weather and temperatures. SPF insulation is the most efficient commercially available insulation material. It has the highest R-value per square inch.
Super-Efficient
The building envelope comprises several components that protect against uncontrolled heat, air, or moisture movements.
It is not possible to measure the true performance of your building envelope by the R-value of insulation. It would help if you also considered air movement and moisture control.
SPF meets all of these requirements in new construction and improvements to existing structures.
SPECIALTY APPLICATIONS
Tanks and vessels
Spray Polyurethane Foam can be used for various purposes, including tanks and vessels. SPF is a great solution to cold vessel insulation for wine, chemicals, and even soft drinks. SPF is great for products that require controlled temperatures. These insulations are ideal for SPF systems because of their superior durability and ease of use.
Spray polyurethane foam can be used to insulation hot or warm vessels. SPF fluid-applied systems with protective coatings provide superior performance if there is a need for temperature control or viscosity of chemicals and other liquids.
Sealants
Polyurethane foam sealant can be used to enhance the “envelope” of your building’s outer walls, ceilings, windows, floors, and roof. This sealant is cost-effective and can improve your home’s energy efficiency as well as comfort.
- Both thermal and sound insulation
- Seal Windows and Doors
- Blocks Insects & Rodents
- Additional insulation may be required
- Extreme temperatures are possible
- There are many penetrations in the roof substrate
- Roof deck is a unique configuration
- High winds are likely to cause damage to the roof.
- It is important to use lightweight materials
- To ensure positive drainage, the slope must be included
