Best Energy-Smart Solutions
Save energy and money with our eco-friendly and efficient insulation solutions
Spray foam insulation is a cutting-edge solution for sealing and insulating homes. It's composed of a mixture of chemicals that expand into a foam, filling gaps and forming a barrier against air leakage. This versatile material adheres to most surfaces, providing excellent thermal resistance and effectively reducing energy costs.
Spray foam insulation has a high R-value per inch compared to other insulation types. This means it provides superior thermal resistance, effectively reducing heat transfer through walls, ceilings, and floors. By minimizing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, spray foam insulation helps maintain a comfortable indoor temperature year-round while reducing energy costs.
Spray foam expands upon application, filling gaps, cracks, and voids in the house. This creates a seamless and airtight barrier that prevents air leakage and infiltration. By sealing these air leaks, spray foam insulation reduces drafts and minimizes energy loss.
Spray foam offers a tight seal, closing off cracks, gaps, and other openings that let in dust, pollen, allergens, and other pollutants. It also helps provide natural pest control by preventing insects and other critters from entering.

The Right Type of Insulation for Every Area in Your Home
There are many different types of insulation, including spray foam, cellulose, and fiberglass batt insulation. Each type of insulation serves a unique purpose, and some are better suited for certain applications than others. Rebates from HER+ can be used toward the cost of certain types of insulation.
Fiberglass batt insulation is a classic choice for insulating homes. Composed of fine glass fibers, it comes in pre-cut panels or rolls, making installation quick and easy. Its flexibility allows it to fit snugly between studs, joists, and rafters, creating a thermal barrier that helps maintain comfortable indoor temperatures year-round.
Fiberglass batt insulation is often more cost-effective compared to other insulation options, making it a budget-friendly choice for homeowners.
Fiberglass batts are available in pre-cut sizes, making them relatively easy to handle and install, especially for DIY projects. They can be fitted between standard framing members such as studs, joists, and rafters without specialized equipment.
Spray foam offers a tight seal, closing off cracks, gaps, and other openings that let in dust, pollen, allergens, and other pollutants. It also helps provide natural pest control by preventing insects and other critters from entering.

Removing old or damaged insulation is crucial for maintaining a healthy and energy-efficient home.
Upgrading to more efficient insulation materials can significantly improve energy efficiency.
Old insulation may contain contaminants like asbestos, mold, or rodent droppings, affecting indoor air quality.
Knowing when to remove insulation is important. Look for these signs:
Wet, moldy, or deteriorated insulation.
Ineffective insulation can lead to increased heating and cooling costs.
Hot or cold spots in your home indicate poor insulation performance.
Rodent droppings, nests, or other signs of pests in the insulation.
Poor indoor air quality due to contaminated insulation.
Spray foam offers a tight seal, closing off cracks, gaps, and other openings that let in dust, pollen, allergens, and other pollutants. It also helps provide natural pest control by preventing insects and other critters from entering.
Frequently Asked Questions
Spray-Foam Insulation
If you don’t see the answer to your question, feel free to give us a call to speak with one of our friendly associates.
While it is possible to apply spray foam insulation yourself, it requires careful preparation, adherence to safety guidelines, and a thorough understanding of the application process. If you feel confident in your ability to manage these aspects, DIY spray foam can be a rewarding project. If not, hiring an expert might be the better option.
Spray foam insulation is safe for residential use when installed correctly and with appropriate safety measures.
Spray foam insulation is typically made of two main chemical components i.e. Isocyanate and Polyurethane. When these components are mixed and sprayed, they react to form a foam that expands and hardens.
Spray foam insulation can significantly reduce a home’s energy costs by reducing air leaks, increasing thermal resistance and acting as a moisture barrier. These factors lead to lower heating and cooling costs.
Yes, spray foam insulation offers acoustic benefits such as air sealing and noise reduction. These features can improve the overall sound insulation of your home.
Batt Insulation
Fiberglass batt insulation is a type of thermal insulation made from fine glass fibers. It typically comes in pre-cut panels or rolls, known as batts, and is used to insulate walls, floors, and ceilings.
Fiberglass batt insulation can last 80 to 100 years or more if it remains dry and undisturbed. Proper installation and maintaining good conditions in the insulated area can help maximize its lifespan.
It depends on your priorities. Spray foam insulation is generally considered more effective due to its superior air sealing and higher R-values per inch, but it's also more expensive and requires professional installation. Fiberglass batt insulation is cheaper and easier to install but may not offer the same level of insulation and air sealing.
Blown-in fiberglass insulation can be beneficial for your home due to its ability to fill irregular spaces, provide effective thermal insulation, and resist moisture. However, whether it's better depends on factors such as your home's specific needs, budget, and other insulation options available.
Our team of certified experts will walk you through all your options based on your home’s unique needs to find the insulation that works best for you.
