Georgia Insulation – Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation is a premium insulation product that can help to improve energy efficiency in homes and buildings, as well as providing sound dampening properties and mold control. It is sprayed into walls, attics, crawl spaces, and rim joists. It is a highly effective insulator, offering R-values up to R-30 per inch of foam. It is also water resistant and fire-retardant. It can be used in new construction and in older homes, and it fills cracks and crevices, unlike conventional cellulose and fiberglass insulation products.

Its air sealing properties mean that it can keep heat in during the winter and out of the house during the summer, lowering energy bills in the long run. It can also prevent ice dams in the attic by preventing warm air from escaping up through the roof.

Georgia Insulation: Experts in Spray Foam Insulation

Although the spray foam itself does not harbor mold or mildew, it is not a good choice for humid climates. When a spray foam installation fails or needs to be removed, it is difficult to remove without creating health hazards for remediation specialists and the occupants of the home or building.

The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors has released a new guide for homeowners considering the use of spray foam in their homes. The advice highlights the potential for reduced property valuation and a refusal of mortgages on homes where spray foam has been installed, as well as the need to check with insurance providers before using the product.
