How AccuSeal Spray Foam Insulation Works

AccuSeal Spray Foam comes in an aerosol can and expands when it’s applied, filling gaps, cracks, crevices and other areas that traditional fiberglass or cellulose might miss. It’s especially helpful for insulating hard-to-reach areas such as around light fixtures, electrical outlets, door frames and rim joists. It’s also more durable than other types of insulation and provides a complete energy solution, saving you money on heating and cooling bills.

Residential Spray Foam Insulation

Before beginning the process, make sure to follow the can’s instructions and wear appropriate safety gear. This includes a respirator mask and proper ventilation. It’s important to be aware that spray foam insulation can produce harmful fumes during application and curing, so the area should not be re-occupied for at least 24 hours after installation. It’s also recommended to use a low-VOC spray foam insulation that uses blowing agents with lower global warming potential to minimize the impact on the environment.

A professional spray insulation installer will first clear and prepare the area to be sprayed, making sure there are no existing or raw materials present that could get in the way of the application. The crew will then spray a coat of the polyurethane foam over the area, and it will immediately expand, filling in nooks and crannies for superior insulation. The crew may use open or closed cell insulation, depending on the needs of your home. Closed cell spray insulation is a harder, more rigid material that offers better performance than open cell foam.
