Open Cell Spray Foam Insulation

All About Open Cell Spray Foam

Open Cell Spray Foam is a type of insulation that is softer and more flexible than other types of foam. The cells in the makeup are not completely encapsulated which allows space for the material to fit snuggly wherever it is needed, even getting into the harder-to-reach places with ease. It is incredibly expansive, so after one application we can usually have achieved enough coverage for exceptionally effective results. The material offers excellent sound reduction coverage and is much more affordable than other options. Depending on where you require new insulation, this option can be ideal for certain areas but less so in others. Our expert team will be glad to support you to figure this out.

Where can it be used?

Open cell spray foam is ideal for many places on your property. Most suited to locations away from water, and any risk of leakages, this option is most commonly used for attics, crawl spaces, open wall cavities, and rim joists. Although it is lighter and in some ways less effective than closed cell spray foam, when insulating a whole house, the material’s inherent flexibility offers an exceptional way to ensure thorough insulation in every space it is needed whilst balancing the costs and benefits to have an overall excellent standard finish.

Compared to other spray insulation types…

In comparison to other types of foam insulations, open cell spray foam insulation offers great benefits to certain parts of your property. Due to the nature of its makeup the effectiveness of air resistance and ability to deal with water and dampness is lesser than closed cell foam, for example, but it does however offer great usefulness in specific locations. Ideal for anywhere away from water, the way that this foam can expand almost three times as much as closed cell foam, enables a full and thorough seal to be achieved in those hard-to-get-to places. Essential for the overall insulation of areas such as crawl spaces, attics, wall cavities, and rim joists, speak with our experts to find out the best option for you!
