Seamless insulation layer can prevent thermal bridging and air leakage

Spray foam insulation stands out in the world of insulation options as it has a high R-value, which means it provides superior insulation compared to other insulation types. Its continuous and seamless insulation layer can prevent thermal bridging and air leakage, which not only enhances the R-value, but also contributes to superior energy efficiency.

The images below show another sea can project we did just outside of Canmore. Our team applied a 2″ layer of our class 1 closed-cell foam, completing the task right before the long cold snap. We try to spray foam with temperatures from zero degrees and up. Applying foam to a substrate that is too cold may induce a shock, causing the foam to contract—an undesirable outcome we actively avoid.

For those considering insulating sea cans with spray foam, it’s important to partner with a seasoned and qualified contractor. A skilled professional can tailor a solution to meet your specific needs effectively. Insul Foam Services has a ton of experience with sea cans.

Say goodbye to chilly drafts & skyrocketing energy bills with spray foam insulation

As winter temperatures plummet, the importance of a well-insulated home becomes undeniable. At Insul Foam Services, we understand the significance of creating a cozy and energy-efficient space during the coldest months. Our spray foam insulation is a game-changer that can make a world of difference in your winter experience.

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 to seal and insulate structures. The properties of spray foam make it a much tighter sealant and insulator than packaged material you might generally apply to your house or commercial structure.

SPF formulas can be adjusted to have different physical properties depending on the type of application you need it for. For example, the same basic materials can make an insulation foam that is semi-rigid and soft to the touch, and those same materials can also create a high-density roofing foam that is resistant to various weights and water.

In addition to its exceptional insulating properties, Insul Foam’s spray foam insulation boasts energy efficiency benefits. By reducing the need for constant heating, you’ll see a significant decrease in your energy consumption, leading to lower utility bills and a reduced environmental impact.

Don’t let the winter chill invade your home. Invest in Sterling Interiors’ spray foam insulation and experience the transformative power of a well-insulated space.

If you have a project you’re considering, now’s the time to discover more about spray foam insulation.

A quick & easy way to insulate your C Can

An intermodal container or C Can is a large standardized shipping container. These containers are built for freight, shipping and rail transport, and are easily transferable between all three modes.

C Cans come in varying sizes and are commonly used as tool sheds or to store furniture. Refrigerated C Cans can also be used to store perishables and other produce.

Spray foam insulation is safe, economical, and one of the quickest and easiest ways to insulate a C Can. This insulation material can be sprayed directly onto both the interior and exterior walls which will ensure your C Can withstands the rigors of temperature change, keeping interiors cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
