Spray foam adheres to the materials of a building, sealing the indoor air-space from outdoor air temperature changes. The benefits are enormous: | ||
Lower Heating and Cooling Costs: New Homes that incorporate spray foam typically save up to 50% on heating and cooling costs. Reduced HVAC cost: By reducing the effort required to heat and cool a house spray foam insulation allows for lower HVAC "tonnage" and thus reduces the size and cost of a new HVAC system. Quieter: Spray foam reduces outdoor sounds from entering the home. More comfort: BioFOAM reduces drafts and airborne particles such as pollen and dust, providing a healthier, more comfortable home. Value Added: Super-efficient homes installed with spray foam are “value-added,” allowing for higher sale prices. Durable: BioBased spray foam will not settle or sag, ensuring comfort as the building ages. It is Class-1 Fire Rated, does not support Rot and Mold growth, and is not a food source for rodents or insects LEED Eligible: Our spray foam is LEED eligible, when incorporated into projects seeking LEED certification. | ||
Spray foam reduces heating and cooling demand by as much as 50%, saving thousands annually. Savings Sheet | ||||
Additionally, Spray Foam’s increased efficiency allows for a 25% reduction in HVAC size and subsequent savings. A TAX REBATE may also be available to help offset the initial cost of installing spray-foam in your home or building. | ||
Spray foam adheres to nearly everything, allowing for insulation to fully bond to the building structure: | ||
Walls - both interior and exterior applications Ceilings - including cathedral ceilings and flat ceiling Attics - Creates a pleasant, climate controlled storage space Foundations Crawl Spaces Header Spaces - in basement and between floors Door and windows – seal between frames and wall openings Pipes and Ducts - including those underground Tubs - for longer, warmer baths. Swimming pools & Ponds - sprayed as a liner to make swimming pool or pond bottoms. Metal Structures - super efficient insulation that adds durability | ||||||
BioFOAM installs two spray foam products, depending on the type of structure to be insulated: | ||
Open Cell Foam: We recommend that stick-frame structures incorporate Biobased 501 spray-foam insulation to ensure superior insulation value and performance. | ||
Warranty | ||||||
Open Cell Technical Specifications | ||
Closed Cell Foam: A great foam for metal buildings, Biobased 1701 is an effective vapor retarder that is stiff and durable, ideal for sealing punctures in exterior sheathing. The increased rigidity of closed-cell spray foam adds structural stability to the exterior sheething and high durability in areas that are left exposed. | ||
Warranty | ||||||
Closed Cell Technical Specifications | ||
Durability: Biobased 501 and BioBased 1701 adhere to wood, metal, plastic, and everything else used to construct buildings and homes. Once in place, the spray-foam will not detach, sag, or rot. | ||
