Warm & Cozy Garage

Here’s another residential project we worked on for one of our residential customers and this project made me a little jealous I must say.

In the image below our customer added 3′ to the height of his garage to accommodate a vehicle hoist. Being that it has a flat roof the only way to insulate those is to apply close cell spray foam direct to the underside of sheathing. They requested we do all the walls as well while we were at it so the whole garage is now completely spray foamed with Genyk Boreal Nature Elite closed cell foam. This project was 6″ under roof and 2″ in the 2 x 4 walls.

Some of the key benefits of spray foam include expands to seal gaps, cracks and voids in walls and ceilings, blocks air leaks better than other forms of insulation, material is denser than other forms of insulation creating a tight, impenetrable barrier to air infiltration and leaks, will not slip out of place overtime compared to other conventional insulation and adds structural strength. Without a doubt this garage will be a warm and cozy environment!

Have a spray foam application project you’d like to get to this spring? We can help. Call 403-993-4997 to get started.

Your cargo van will thank you!

Cargo vans are undeniably versatile workhorses, but anyone who’s had to endure bone-chilling mornings in one knows they can be downright frigid. In the quest to battle the cold, Insul Foam Services applied their top-notch spray foam insulation to the van’s interior, effectively sealing in precious heat. But that’s not all – they didn’t overlook the often underestimated wheel wells either. A key detail, insulating the wheel wells not only enhances thermal comfort but also dramatically reduces road noise, making those long drives considerably more peaceful.

The images below showcase multiple cargo vans that were repurposed. We were able to work on 3 simultaneously for a local customer, Toys For Trucks, who outfit trucks and vans with all the accessories out there.

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. Feel free to reach out to us at 403-993-4997 for more information or to request a FREE quote.
