Commercial Spray Foam Applications: Containment Systems

Insul Foam Services specializes in providing effective spill safety and containment solutions for chemicals, preventing leakage and environmental contamination in Calgary and the surrounding areas. Spray foam has numerous commercial applications, serving as both a sealant and a containment system.

Primarily, spray foam acts as secondary containment, safeguarding against leaks and spills that could harm the environment and contaminate groundwater. Additionally, it offers corrosion resistance and protection against cross-contamination, making it invaluable for industries such as oil, mining, sewer, and wastewater management.

These applications highlight the versatility of spray foam in protecting both facilities and the surrounding ecosystem. For more information on how we can treat your structure or facility with spray foam, contact us today at 403-993-4997.

Keep Your Cargo Van Warm with Spray Foam Insulation

When temperatures plummet to -30 or lower, the last place you want to be is outside. But for essential service providers like plumbers and heating specialists, the job calls – no matter the weather. Cargo vans are essential for many trades, but they can turn into iceboxes during frigid mornings. Ensuring your service vehicle is insulated can make a significant difference in battling these extreme conditions.

Spray foam insulation offers a top-tier R-value of R-7, providing superior thermal protection for your cargo van. Besides keeping the cold out (and the heat in), it dampens noise and prevents condensation on metal walls.

Don’t wait for the winter chill to catch you off guard! For expert installation and insulation tailored to sub-zero temperatures, contact Insul Foam Services at 403-993-4997 for a quick estimate. Your cargo van will appreciate the upgrade!

Consider a warm & cozy garage this winter!

Insul Foam Services provides a range of spray foam insulation options to keep your garage warm and energy-efficient. When the temps dip this winter, you’ll be so grateful you chose our spray foam application!

Spray foam insulation offers numerous benefits, making it an ideal choice for garages and other spaces. It expands to seal gaps, cracks, and voids, providing superior air leak protection compared to other insulation types. The material’s density creates a tight, durable barrier against air infiltration, ensuring long-term performance without sagging or slipping. Additionally, spray foam adds structural strength to your building, making it a reliable and lasting solution.

Earlier this year, we worked with a residential customer to modify their garage by raising its height by 3 feet to accommodate a vehicle hoist. Since the garage had a flat roof, we applied closed-cell spray foam directly to the underside of the sheathing to insulate the area. The customer also requested that we spray foam the walls, resulting in a fully insulated garage using Genyk Boreal Nature Elite closed-cell foam. The project involved 6 inches of foam under the roof and 2 inches in the 2×4 walls. With this garage now fully insulated, it will remain warm and cozy even during the coldest months.

If you’ve been wanting to spray foam your garage, don’t wait! Contact Insul Foam Services at 403-993-4997 to get started.

Why Choose Insul Foam Services?

Since 1979, Insul Foam Services has been a trusted expert in spray foam insulation, polyurethane foams, and protective coatings. With extensive experience in both residential and commercial insulation, we also specialize in unique applications like oilfield projects. Our expertise ranges from filling abandoned mine shafts with polyurethane foam to installing leak-proof membranes under challenging structures.

Spray polyurethane foam, commonly referred to as SPF, is a sprayed foam insulation that starts as a liquid, goes through specialized equipment, and is then mixed at the end of the spray gun. It is sprayed onto a surface and expands multiple times past its original volume. SPF formulas can be adjusted to have different physical properties depending on the type of application you need it for.

Spray foam insulation is an ideal choice for homes and commercial buildings due to its superior sealing and insulating capabilities. Unlike traditional insulation, spray foam provides a much tighter seal, making it highly effective in reducing energy loss. It can also be applied to irregularly shaped structures, offering versatility that other materials can’t match.

At Insul Foam, our skilled team handles jobs of all sizes with equal expertise. Contact us today at 403-993-4997 with any questions or to learn more about how our services can benefit your project.

Why Choose Spray Foam Insulation?

Spray foam insulation is a top-tier solution for insulating buildings, offering exceptional energy efficiency. With an R-value ranging from R-6 to R-7, it provides substantial savings on both summer cooling and winter heating costs. In fact, spray foam outperforms many traditional insulation options, which may only offer up to 30% in energy efficiency.

One of the key benefits of spray foam is its gap-free application, minimizing leaks and reducing the risk of water damage. This seamless insulation process ensures a stronger, more secure barrier compared to conventional methods.
