Urethane foam is ideal to insulate:
- The inside of foundation walls
- The outside of foundation walls (below ground)
- The end joists between each floor
- The ceiling (through the attic)
- The floor of a cantilevered room
In your future property, adding urethane foam in strategic locations could result in significant heating savings.
Here are some of the advantages of choosing sprayed urethane:
- Has a superior value;
- Behaves as air and vapour barriers;
- Provides continuous insulation due to lack of joints;
- With frightening efficiency to avoid thermal bridges;
- Offers high adhesion even with irregular shapes;
- Provides increased protection against mould;
- Provides effective protection against radon;
- This product is very strong, it does not crush or crumble;
- Odourless product;
- Can be used on different materials such as concrete, gypsum, steel, or wood.
Indoor air quality and comfort
Above all, a well-insulated house will be watertight and airtight, ensuring:
- Fewer drafts;
- A more homogeneous indoor temperature, summer and winter;
- An adequate level of humidity inside;
- A mould-free indoor environment—you will benefit from healthier indoor air in all seasons and a home without cold zones in winter, providing you and your family with unparalleled comfort! Urethane foam not only insulates; it also makes surfaces airtight;
- The amount of energy required to produce enough polyurethane insulation for a single home pays for itself in just one year thanks to the insulation provided;
- Polyurethane insulation with a thickness of 1.6 cm can be as effective as a concrete wall with a thickness of 1.34 metres;
- Since the introduction of polyurethanes in refrigerators, today’s class A++ models are 60% more efficient than the refrigerators of 15 years ago.
