What type of foam material should I install on my project?

There are numerous types of spray foam insulation materials available today. The most common applied are open and closed cell. The main differences between the two are cost and performance.

Open cell spray foam

Open cell spray foam is the workhorse of the spray foam industry. This material is quickly applied, has high r-values per inch and is an excellent air sealant. In addition to these benefits, open cell foam is fairly inexpensive in regard to material cost.

Closed cell spray foam

Closed cell spray foam is a specialized material that carries an extremely high r-value. It acts as its own vapor barrier and is water resistant. Closed cell foam takes slightly longer to install compared to open cell and is a bit higher on the pricing scale.

What depths of foam are typically installed?

Open cell: 3 – 16 inches depending on performance requirements and application.

Closed cell: 1 – 8 inches depending on performance requirements and application.

How long will my foam rental installation take?

Typically, after being trained by our onsite technician, a installer using our spray foam rental equipment for the first time can spray roughly 1 – 1.5 sets of open cell foam or 1.5 – 2.5 sets of closed cell foam per 9 hour day. This can very depending on application specifics.

What protection gear will I need?

Tyvek suit, long cuff rubber gloves and protective footwear. We will provide you with respirator equipment. All mentioned protection equipment can be purchased at your local hardware store.

What work should be completed prior to our arrival?

We require that all prep work be completed prior to our arrival. This includes plastic coverings on all windows, doors and belongings in close proximity to foam installation areas. Please keep in mind that its best to have all areas cleared of clutter prior to our arrival.
