Georgia Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation is a great way to make your home more comfortable and energy efficient. It provides superior thermal performance compared to fiberglass and other traditional insulation products. It resists both conduction and convection — keeping your home warm in winter and cool in summer. Spray foam also acts as a moisture barrier. Moisture entrapment in a building envelope is a significant problem that can lead to mold and wood rot, and it may require costly remediation. Spray foam seals the gaps and voids in a building’s exterior to prevent moisture and air from getting into the house.

The Long-Lasting Benefits of Georgia Insulation’s Spray Foam Insulation

The type of spray foam you choose depends on your climate zone and the code requirements in your area. For example, the minimum insulation value for a new build in Georgia is R-25 in climate zones 4 through 7. These values are based on the 2015 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) with state-specific amendments.

The best way to ensure a proper installation is to hire a professional insulation contractor who specializes in spray foam. They will have specialized spray foam rigs that allow them to apply the insulation quickly and accurately. They will know how to apply the spray foam correctly so it doesn’t sag or develop any bubbles, and they will ensure that your project complies with local and national building codes. They will also be familiar with any local rebate programs available to help you save even more money on your project.

What to Look For in an Insulation Contractor

Insulation Contractors are specialized contractors who work to add thermal insulation to homes and other structures to solve a range of problems. These issues include high energy bills, discomfort in cold or hot weather, and damage to pipes and walls from extreme temperatures.

In the case of residential insulation, these contractors work closely with homeowners to help them select and install insulation that can solve their specific problems. This insulation can be installed in existing homes or incorporated into new home construction. These contractors often have a wide range of skills and are familiar with all kinds of insulation materials, including spray foams, fiberglass, batt, and blown-in insulation.

Top 5 Reasons to Choose Spray Foam Insulation for Your Home

An important thing to look for in an insulation contractor is whether or not they carry worker’s compensation and general liability insurance. This is especially important if they have a crew working on your house or other structure. A reputable company will be happy to provide a list of references from previous customers so that you can ask them about the quality of their work.

Other things to consider are what kind of equipment and tools they use. Adding or changing the amount of insulation in your home requires a variety of specialized equipment and supplies that most homeowners don’t have access to, such as a ladder, hand-held vacuums, blowers, caulking guns, a ladder stand, expanding foam sealant, and more. The right tools are critical to ensuring an efficient and effective job and a successful installation.
