When it comes to insulating your home, there is no better solution than spray foam insulation. This versatile product is sprayed onto walls, ceilings, and floors, where it expands to fill in the tiny nooks and crannies that are left by other forms of insulation like fiberglass and cellulose. Upon expansion, it creates an effective air seal that also offers superior thermal resistance. This is critical in the desert climate, where high levels of indoor air movement can make a home feel uncomfortable and increase energy costs.
The key to properly installing attic insulation is selecting the right density. Foams are rated according to their density, which is a direct correlation with their performance in different climates. Choosing the wrong density for your project will result in inferior results and unnecessary cost. The experts at Desert Spray Foaming can help you select the ideal foam based on the climate in your region.
Open vs Closed Foam
The most common type of spray foam is called open-cell foam. This product consists of small pockets (cells) that aren’t fully closed, and it has a soft and flexible texture. It can reduce sound transmission and block water vapor, but it’s less resistant to moisture than its closed-cell counterpart.
The closed-cell version of spray foam has a firmer, more dense texture and is much more resistant to moisture than its open-cell counterpart. Closed-cell spray foam is also a more effective insulator and performs well in desert climates.
