Spray foam insulation is a more modern type of building insulation that can be sprayed as foam into any wall or cavity that requires insulation. The advantages of using spray foam insulation on a more traditional insulation material such as fiberglass are numerous. The many short- and long-term benefits of spray foam insulation are detailed below.
Spray foam insulation = savings!
After installing your new spray foam insulation, you will very quickly notice the difference in your electricity bill. Installing spray foam insulation will make it easier for you to regulate the temperature of your home. Plus, your heating and cooling units won’t need to work as hard.
You will keep moisture out of your home
When using traditional insulation materials, it can be easy for moisture to enter the wall cavity of your home and this can cause serious problems in the long run. Spray foam insulation can have a significant impact on reducing the amount of moisture and air that enters your home, which can save you money in the long run.
Dust control
If you suffer from allergies, foam spray insulation can help remove allergens like dust and pollen that would otherwise make it much easier to enter your home through air infiltration into walls with traditional insulation materials.
Stronger walls and added value
Due to the materials that make up foam insulation, once installed in your home in Montreal, on the North Shore or the South Shore, the structural strength of your home will be increased. You can also use the fact that you have installed foam insulation in your home when you come to sell your home because of all the benefits it has in the long-term protection of the home.
Neighbors or live near a highway? No problem
Another feature of spray foam insulation is that it can help reduce the level of noise that enters your home. This can make a huge difference if you live in a noisy area or under a flight path. The insulation will also prevent the noise of leaving a house, so you won’t need to worry about keeping the TV volume low.
Longevity
Once spray foam insulation is installed in your home, you won’t have to worry about subsidence over time, as foam insulation won’t lose its strength or properties over time in the same way as traditional insulation methods.
Spray foam insulation is safe
As soon as the foam insulation has been installed, the foam will become a completely inert polymer. This means that it will not release any harmful debris, dust or gases into your home. Spray foam insulation is considered an extremely safe method of home insulation and is considered a modern alternative to obsolete traditional methods.
You can help save the planet
Since foam spray insulation is a much more effective insulator than fiberglass or other older insulation methods, you’ll need less energy to heat or cool your home. Thus, by installing foam insulation in your home in Montreal, Laval or Longueuil, you will reduce your carbon footprint.
Improving your home’s insulation to spray foam insulation will save you money and add value to your home. You will be able to sit back and relax, knowing that you have chosen the best materials to regulate the temperature in your home.
