A spray-on insulation that expands and hardens as it dries, spray foam insulation is a premium product that can help lower energy bills and reduce home air pollution. However, it’s important to consider the pros and cons of this insulation type before making a decision for your home.
When sprayed onto walls, ceilings, and floors, spray foam insulation is applied at a high rate of pressure. It’s able to get into every nook and cranny without having to remove existing insulation and it provides a more complete barrier against air leakage. Spray foam also offers sound-dampening benefits, so it can make your home quieter and more comfortable.

Its biggest benefit is its ability to save money on energy costs year-round by sealing the building envelope. Air leakage accounts for around 35-40% of the cost of heating or cooling your home, and only spray foam insulation can provide a tight seal against this issue.
During the installation process, the crew must take special precautions because the chemicals used in spray foam are dangerous in their raw form. They must wear advanced safety equipment to ensure they don’t breathe in the toxic fumes while spraying and they may need to stay out of the house until the spray insulation has cured.
The spraying process involves two giant buckets of liquid chemicals, which are pressurized and heated to a specific temperature. They are sprayed in a controlled way to create a chemical reaction that turns them into plastic foam. This foam is safe to touch, breathe near, and cut into once it has cured. It’s important to hire a professional insulation contractor with experience and credentials to ensure the job is done correctly.
