Foam
Sweet Home
Performance spray foam is an ideal product for insulating and sealing residential
wall and ceiling cavities, providing comfort and cost-saving benefits. Using
special equipment, insulation is sprayed into the wall and ceiling cavities,
where it expands to fill and seal all the nooks and crannies in a single step.
The benefits of foam
insulation are many: Energy efficiency - reduces heating and
cooling costs by as much as 50% Reduced heating and air conditioning tonnage -
by as much as 40% without the loss of efficiency
or comfort Draft reduction - sealing prevents
uncontrolled movement of air through the walls Noise reduction - the open cells
and semi-rigid polyurethane mass of foam absorbs
and reduces sound transmission Dust reduction - homes remarkably
accumulate less dust and provide improved indoor
air quality Product stability - foam is
safe and not subject to structural deterioration
or decomposition Greater interior comfort - fewer
hot and cold spots within the home
Consider
replacing your older model refrigerator, especially
if it’s more than 10
years old. Older refrigerators often use three times
the energy of newer models.
Install foam gaskets behind electric
outlets and switch plates.
Close your fireplace damper and
seal the opening shut in the off-season.
