Get Your Free EstimateOpen Cell Spray Foam Insulation uses a low-density foam that is water-blown. This foam expands fast to fill and seal spaces in your building. It creates a thermal barrier and an air barrier that is continuous. This Open Cell Spray Foam service starts with a full site assessment. We then apply the two-part liquid foam system precisely. After the application, we inspect the work to make sure there is complete coverage and proper expansion inside your walls, attics, or crawl spaces. We work to make a solid seal that stops thermal bridging and air infiltration points in Eagle, ID.
Our process for Open Cell Spray Foam Insulation begins with careful preparation of the work area. We mask off surfaces where the foam should not go. We also make sure there is good ventilation in the area. Then, we use special high-pressure equipment to mix and spray the two parts of the foam. These are the A-side, which is isocyanate, and the B-side, which is polyol resin. We spray these directly onto the surface. The foam expands very quickly, usually 100 to 150 times its liquid size. It forms to fit irregular shapes and fills every empty space. This expansion is important for getting rid of air gaps that other insulation materials often miss.
For homes in Eagle, ID, Open Cell Spray Foam is very helpful. It handles the temperature changes that are common in our high desert climate, from the hot summers to the cold winters. The foam is vapor-permeable, which means moisture can get out. This can be good in some wall setups because it helps stop moisture from getting trapped. This also helps keep your home's structure strong and lowers the chance of mold growing. Mold is a concern with any insulation system if it is not managed right.
Homeowners often ask about the R-value and how well Open Cell Spray Foam stops sound. Open Cell Spray Foam usually has an R-value of R-3.7 to R-4.0 for every inch of thickness. This gives good thermal resistance when we apply it thick enough. The soft and porous nature of the foam also makes it a very good sound barrier. It reduces noise coming from outside or between different rooms in your Eagle, ID, home. We make sure the application meets or goes above local building codes and your specific goals for performance.

It is a different approach to moisture control compared to Closed Cell Foam. Open Cell Spray Foam offers flexibility in building design.
