Keeping the house warm in the winter and cool in the summer is very important to us. But the thing was we couldn’t really afford having huge electric bills. The spray foam insulation that we put in our home has really done wonders for helping us keep our house warm in the winter and cool in the summer. We have lived in a house that had the more traditional insulation and we could always feel drafts throughout the house from the attic insulation. So we had decided if we ever had the opportunity to build a house we would definitely use the spray foam insulation, because everyone we knew who did had great utility bills. This was not a fluke either. Our electric bills are dramatically lower than our other home. In this economy you need to save money wherever you can and I am so glad we are able to do this with our new home and the spray foam insulation.
The term spray foam insulation is used by members of the construction & building trades to describe any type or variety of insulation, used in commercial or residential structures, that is installed by being pressured sprayed onto the surface it is insulating. The spray foam insulation cost per square foot is one of major reasons for its use in commercial applications. Since the majority of spray form insulation applications use liquid form that has been mixed with a foaming agent in the spray foam insulation cost formula has a very stable labor coefficient, since the skill sets required to apply the spray form insulation are simple to learn. The commonly used foam materials in spray form insulation (cementitious, phenolic, polyisocyanurate and polyurethane) also contribute to the stability of the spray form insulation cost formula. As required by state and federal spray form insulation is not allowed to contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) also reducing the spray foam insulation cost.
