Keep homes or buildings warm in the winter & cool in the summer

In building and construction, R-value is a measure of how well a two-dimensional barrier, such as a layer of insulation, resists the conductive flow of heat. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power.

Insulating your exterior walls acts like a blanket keeping weather temperature extremes at bay. It creates a tight, impenetrable barrier to air infiltration and leaks, and adds structural strength. Home and building owners can use smaller, more energy efficient heating and cooling systems and achieve same level of comfort. Ultimately, it can help noticeably reduce monthly utility costs!

Polyurethane elastomeric linings provide excellent performance in immersion service while being more versatile than conventional sheet systems. These 100% solids are abrasion-resistant membranes and have an excellent adhesion and a low-perm rating that prevents degradation of the substrate from chemicals or water.

Recommended Applications
  • Leak-proof membranes for chemical storage and/or for underground dump sites to prevent leakage or spills of liquid waste or toxic products
  • Corrosion proof protection for steel storage tanks, underground pipes, silos, ducts, boats and bridges

Best time to insulate

One of the best times to insulate is during a renovation. If you are remodeling or changing any interior wall that is an exterior wall this would be a great time to upgrade your insulation.

If you have existing fiberglass or batten insulation you might be surprised to know that almost 30% of air escapes from it and that number increases if it is improperly installed.

Spray foam does conform to the space in which it is in and can decrease heating/cooling costs up to 60%.

Other benefits:

  • Can improve air quality and help to reduce allergic reactions to pollen and dust
  • Helps to reduce mold and mold growth
  • Water & flood resistant
  • Does not support or spread flame
  • Provides a greater sound barrier making homes and living spaces quieter
  • Spray foam is not a food source for insects and vermin.

This garage renovation in Banff was the perfect opportunity to replace old fiberglass insulation with spray foam creating a warm mountain morning or winter environment.

Unexpected spray foam solutions

Insulfoam Services Spray Foam SolutionsDid you know that spray foam will adhere to almost anything and if you use a waterproof foam? It’s true. There are many uses for spray foam that you may not have considered. For example:

  1. A loose shower head. Just cover the tile around it and spray foam in the loose area and let it harden. Then use an exacto knife to carve off the excess and replace the cover plate.
  2. Older copper pipes that are making noise. Locate the source and fill the space around the pipe with spray foam. You may have to remove a small area of drywall, but the silence will be worth the effort!
  3. Opening(s) where insects are getting into your home? Fill the crack or space with steel wool and fill with spray foam.
  4. Even a great adhesive for those outdoor projects such as sealing your leaking eavestrough or repairing decorative rock.
