Why Air Sealing Is Important

 
 
Consider this. Insulation products that deliver optimal energy
efficiency should possess the following characteristics:
  • Air-sealing capability to control energy-robbing air leakage, allowing the furnace and air conditioning equipment to work less hard and more efficiently.
  • Consistent performance at the rated R-value through the life of the building. Insulation should not sag/settle or off-gas within your walls over time, creating gaps and voids and losing its R-value.
  • Flexibility that lets the insulation expand/contract with your home to ensure that the spray foam insulation completely adheres to the walls and eliminates any air gaps in the walls that allow air to pass through.

Icynene® soft and flexible spray foam creates a seamless air-seal, helping homeowners achieve potential energy savings of up to 50% every month versus traditional insulation.

Why spray foam insulation?

Your choice of insulation has a major impact not only on your pocketbook, but also on the long-term quality of the air you breathe and your overall health and comfort.

Whether you're thinking of remodeling or purchasing a new home, Icynene® soft spray foam insulation and air barrier will protect you from the harmful effects of air leakage, helping you increase energy efficiency, improve indoor air quality and minimize the incidence of moisture-related problems (like mold and mildew).

How Does the Air Escape?

Air infiltrates into and out of your home through every hole and crack. About one-third of this air infiltrates through openings in your ceilings, walls, and floors.

Spray foam insulation virtually eliminate these gaps.
