At Arvada Insulation Contractors, we specialize in professional spray foam insulation installation, ensuring maximum energy savings and protection for your property.
What is Spray Foam Insulation?
Spray foam insulation is a polyurethane-based material that expands upon application, filling every crack and gap to create an airtight seal. It comes in two primary types:
| Type | Best For | R-Value Per Inch | Key Benefits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Open-cell spray foam insulation | Walls, ceilings, soundproofing | 3.5 – 3.8 | Cost-effective, excellent soundproofing |
| Closed-cell spray foam insulation | Attics, crawl spaces, basements | 6.0 – 7.0 | High insulation value, moisture resistance |
How Does Spray Foam Compare to Other Insulation Types?
| Feature | Spray Foam Insulation | Blown-In Insulation | Batt Insulation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Air Sealing | ✔️ Completely airtight | ✔️ Good coverage | ❌ Can leave gaps |
| Moisture Resistance | ✔️ Excellent (closed-cell) | ❌ Absorbs moisture (cellulose) | ❌ Can trap moisture |
| Soundproofing | ✔️ Good (open-cell) | ✔️ Effective (cellulose) | ❌ Less effective |
| R-Value | ✔️ Highest per inch | ✔️ Moderate | ❌ Lower |
Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation
- Superior Energy Efficiency
Spray foam insulation significantly reduces heat transfer, keeping your home comfortable year-round and cutting energy bills by up to 50%. - Exceptional Air Sealing
Unlike traditional insulation, spray foam insulation expands to fill every gap, eliminating air leaks and drafts. - Moisture and Mold Resistance
Closed-cell spray foam insulation acts as a moisture barrier, preventing mold and mildew growth. - Long-Lasting Performance
Spray foam insulation doesn’t settle or degrade over time, providing decades of protection. - Improved Indoor Air Quality
By sealing out allergens, dust, and pollutants, spray foam insulation contributes to healthier indoor air.
Where Can You Use Spray Foam Insulation?
- Attic insulation – Keeps heat out in summer and retains warmth in winter.
- Crawlspace insulation – Prevents moisture buildup and improves energy efficiency.
- Wall insulation – Reduces noise transfer and enhances temperature regulation.
- Garage insulation – Keeps garages comfortable year-round.
- Basement insulation – Protects against cold air and moisture.
How Much Does Spray Foam Insulation Cost?
The cost of spray foam insulation depends on:
- Type of foam – Closed-cell spray foam insulation is more expensive but provides a higher R-value.
- Size of the area – Larger spaces require more material and labor.
- Installation complexity – Hard-to-reach areas may add to the cost.
| Area of Home | Estimated Cost for Open-Cell Spray Foam | Estimated Cost for Closed-Cell Spray Foam |
|---|---|---|
| Attic | $1.00 – $1.50 per sq. ft. | $1.50 – $2.50 per sq. ft. |
| Walls | $0.50 – $1.00 per sq. ft. | $1.00 – $2.00 per sq. ft. |
| Crawl Space | $1.00 – $1.50 per sq. ft. | $2.00 – $3.00 per sq. ft. |
