SPRAY FOAM
A 2-lb spray foam provides a convenient form of home insulation that is completed through a one-step process. It offers an air-tight, gap-free barrier that is resistant to moisture, it creates a good radon barrier if sprayed below floor slabs, and adheres effectively to basically any surface. Not only does it provide unsurpassed performance, it significantly reduces energy consumption, resulting in lower utility costs.
The material is applied using special equipment and once dry, it offers excellent thermal protection and can even contribute to a houses's structural integrity. Spray foam insulation offers more R-value per inch of thickness than most other insulation products.
BENEFITS
- Stops air and moisture infiltration
- Makes your home more comfortable
- Saves on energy costs
- Adds strength to the building structure
- It is permanent and will not sag
- Keeps dust and pollen out
- Reduces capacity requirements, maintenance and wear of HVAC equipment
- Certified air and vapour barrier
- Can provide a good radon barrier below floor slabs
IDEAL FOR
- New construction
- Attics
- Cathedral ceilings
- Exposed floors
- Exterior walls
- Crawl spaces
- Basements
BATT
Fiberglass (aka: batt) insulation is a building material made from tightly-woven glass fibers. It is sold in large rolls, blankets or batts, and is the most widely used type of insulation in the world.
Batt insulation slows the spread of heat, cold, and sound in structures by trapping pockets of air, keeping rooms warm in the winter and cooler in the summer.
It's important to note that fiberglass limits air leakage and movement, but doesn't stop it completely.
BENEFITS
- Very durable: it is both moisture and fire repellent
- Easy to install
- Saves on energy costs
- Helps to soundproof
- Cost efficient
IDEAL FOR
- Standard stud and joist spacing that is free from obstructions
- Attics
- Exposed floors
- Exterior walls
- Cathedral ceilings where slope is too much for blown-in
- Wall soundproofing
BLOWN-IN
Blown-in insulation (or loose-fill insulation) refers to the process of filling stud or joist cavities or covering attic floors with any loose material that has a good insulating R-value.
While there are a variety of materials that can be used, the
most common are cellulose and fiberglass.
ABOUT FIBERGLASS
Made from fiberglass insulation, blow-in fiberglass is the most commonly used means of adding additional insulation in existing construction, both for attic spaces and in wall cavities.
ABOUT CELLULOSE
Made from recycled newspaper, cardboard, and other wood-based materials, blow-in cellulose is widely considered the most eco-friendly means of adding additional insulation in existing construction, both for attic spaces and in wall cavities.
BENEFITS OF FIBERGLASS
