    In the United States, a boom in spray foam sales has coincided with an energy-saving push by state agencies such as Efficiency Vermont to encourage homeowners to improve their homes’ insulation. But the push has created a shortage of qualified weatherization experts and contractors, leaving some homeowners to endure the consequences of shoddy installation.

    Industry representatives say less than one-tenth of 1% of spray foam installations go bad, but many homeowners have been reporting problems years later, discovering gaps, voids, and mold. Some are paying huge energy bills to heat their homes, while others are being forced to move.

    Often, these issues stem from improper installation or from using secondhand equipment rather than new equipment. The former is cheaper upfront, but the equipment may deteriorate over time and can be harmful to people with asthma or other respiratory conditions. A new spray foam rig should come with a warranty and a support team that will help you troubleshoot any errors that may arise during operation.

    EcoHome Spray Foam Insulation
    HOME

    Unlike conventional fiber, spray foam Insulation Contractor insulates your entire home and stops heat loss at the source. This dramatically reduces your heating and cooling costs. It also increases your energy efficiency reducing your carbon footprint.

    The spray foam insulation is sprayed as a liquid and expands to form an airtight barrier. The foam can be applied to a variety of surfaces including bare walls, ceilings and floors. It is primarily used in basement rim joist, attic floors and crawl spaces, overhangs (or cantilevers), knee walls, and bonus rooms.

    EcoHome Spray Foam: Reducing Your Carbon Footprint

    Its ‘green’ marketing is based on the fact that it can be made with a small amount of plant-based oils. However, this amount is dwarfed by the highly toxic chemicals that it consists of. Spray foam is mainly composed of isocyanate and polyurethane. The polyurethane is derived from petrochemicals, while the isocyanate is an extremely dangerous and carcinogenic chemical. The isocyanate must be contained at all times during application, so a protective suit and mask are required.

    Conventional fibre insulation only attempts to slow down conduction, while spray foam insulates your entire home preventing heat loss at the source. This helps your house stay warmer in winter and cooler in summer. It also reduces noise and prevents the growth of mould and mildew.

    It can be hard to install and requires a professional spray foam installer. It’s important to ensure that the spray foam installer you choose is aware of the dangers and complies with the required safety standards. They should have a spray gun, a respirator mask, a safety goggle, and drop cloths to protect surfaces from overspray.
