Insulate your sun room

Sun rooms are great in the summer but once the sun goes below 45 degrees N fall begins, and if you don’t have great insulation in your room it’s really just another outside area – definitely too frigid to relax in.

Insulfoam Services can change that room into an all-season room with very little effort. Spray foam insulation is the perfect way to insulate your sun room and make it a cozy part of your home.

Whether you’re in the process of building a sun room or want to upgrade your existing structure, give us a call. We’d be happy to answer all your questions or arrange an appointment for a free quote. Make your sun room welcoming for the family all year long.

Is There a Perfect Time to Spray Foam?

If your just in the process of remodelling your basement or have torn out the existing configuration and have exposed the exterior wall, this would be a great time to consider spray foam insulation.

Just an FYI but fibreglass or any older batten style insulation that my have been part of a previous reno lets almost 30% of you inside air out and the number can increase dramatically if the original installation was done improperly.

Spay foam conforms tightly to the area it is sprayed and can decrease cooling/heating costs up to 60%

Benefits:

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

Spray Foam Your Van Against Winter Sub Temperatures

Spray Foam the interior of you van or cargo truck.

When the temperatures get below -30 you might not want to go out side. Some essential services like plumbers and heating experts are often doing just that because when there are cold weather extremes that is when their services are most needed.

If you have a service vehicle that has to be out in extreme cold or heat for that matter, spray foaming the interior of you vehicle can help prevent cold from getting in and guard against extreme heat in warmer weather.

Spray foam insulation in your van or cargo truck should be installed by an expert. Spray foam provides the highest R-value at R-7 and beside being a great insulator it can tap down exterior sound and keep metal vehicle walls from condensation.

Insul-Foam services has a long history with service vehicles and can suggest the proper method to insulate against sub-zero temperatures. Get in touch for a quick estimate 403-248-6616.

  

Water Tank Insulation

Not all water tanks are created equal.

You might be surprised to know that a great number of industrial water tanks are not manufactured with sever weather specifications. With out modification many of these tankers and mobile liquid tanks would have their load freeze in sever winter conditions like the sometimes -40 that happens in Alberta.

That’s where Insul-Foam Services steps in to insulate these tanks to a level that will keep their contents fluid.

We recently spray foamed a mobile water tank for a local company with our closed cell spray foam application and it’s doing such a great job they have decided to upgrade more.

New Spray Foam From Soprema.

Here we are spraying a new Spray Foam From Sprema

SOPRA-SPF is a two-component polyurethane foam with a closed-cell structure. This superior quality product is designed for interior or exterior insulation applications, whether commercial, industrial, or residential.

It has the new HFO (Hydrofluoroolefin) blowing agent and is Greenguard Gold certified.

It usually takes a bit of time to dial in the temperature and pressure when starting out with a new product. It’s always important to check for proper adhesion and use density tests when spraying foam.

Below is a picture of an adhesion test in progress. The round disc stuck to the foam has been cored around right to the concrete substrate. We then hang a weight off the disc to make sure our adhesion is good.

Get in touch to find out more about this amazing new process.

Working Around the Little Things

Managing obstacles while spray foaming.

Here we are spraying foam on an ongoing project in downtown Calgary.

On most construction sites there are more than one trade at a time working in the same space. This is to get the job done in a timely manner and on budget.

Sometimes the job of spray foaming can be complicated by having to maneuver around unfinished wiring and structural incompleteness.

Spray foam can adhere to many substances including metal, concrete, and wood. These surfaces need to be clean and dry or the Spray foam may not attach itself properly.

Insul-Foam Services always takes into consideration environment and working conditions before spaying and makes adjustments for other trades to complete their work so our spray foam is applied correctly and safely.

Spray Foam the Small Spaces

If you are renovating your basement or any space below grade keeping it warm and dry is a priority.

Spray foam insulation is a fast economic way to get the job done.

At Insul-Foam Services we do large and small spray foam jobs.

This is an example of a small basement development we recently sprayed in a condo. As it’s between other units, we only had to spray the front and back foundation walls tying into the rim/joist ends for a continuous seal. This space will stay warm and dry for years to come.

Give us a call for information on Insul-Foam spray foam insulation for your basement development. 403-248-6616

Keep Water From Freezing With Spray Foam

No matter what system you use Metric or Imperial, water freezes at 0°.

These water tanks turned out to be an interesting project.

After wrapping them in a 3″ closed cell spray foam, they were then coated again with a white Tank coat, a product made right here in Calgary by Polymer Science Corp.

This process will keep even the most bitter Alberta weather from freezing water in these outdoor water tanks.

Insul-Foam services are expert at thinking out of the the box and can find a creative way to get your interesting spray foam project done professionally and safely.

Spray Foam Skid Edition

With welding shops getting busier skid production is up. A skid is a heavy metal based platform often used to support machinery and heavy equipment. They typically have no bottom deck and the structure is usually on skis or skids which allows them to be pulled into position through almost any terrain.

Insul-Foam Services spray foamed this with a class 1ASTM-E84 tatted foam used in for most industrial applications.

For all spray foam needs in your area give us a call for an immediate estimate.
