Here at Goldstar Insulation, we offer the best Boca Raton attic insulation. There is a difference between closed-cell spray foam insulation and open-cell spray foam insulation. There are two types: closed-cell and open-cell spray foam insulation. Each type has its own pros and cons. You can have a professional help you choose the right foam for you.
Spray foam with open-cell structure:
Open-cell foam, which is very light in weight, is designed to pop or break as it expands before setting. This allows pieces to be removed. Open-cell foam has a low density, fills larger areas with less material, and has an R-value between 3.5-4 inches. Open-cell spray foam is more affordable in terms of cost per R. It is however not as efficient as closed-cell spray mousse.
Spray foam with closed cells:
Closed-cell spray foam insulation is extremely energy-efficient and has an R-value between 6-7/inch. The foam hardens after being applied and provides great air sealing and support for building construction.
Here are some more facts about cellulose.
- Cellulose producers agree that products will settle over time. This means that you will lose R-value over the years and will need to add insulation in the future.
- Cellulose absorbs water, and over time becomes heavy. This increases the risk of cracks in ceilings and drywall sagging.
- Cellulose is the most affordable insulation material today.
Our experience has shown that cellulose is a viable option for your attic due to its low price and thermal benefits. However, you should be aware of possible allergies to ammonium sulfurate and be prepared to clean it.
Insulating your attic can save you money
You can save up to 10% to 20% on your energy bills by using proper insulation and air-sealing techniques. Here are some ways that an energy-efficient attic could save you money. Insulation is a simple way to make your HVAC system work less. It keeps the heat out during summer and the air in winter. Your HVAC system will struggle to regulate temperature if it isn’t properly insulated. Insulation is essential if you live in colder climates. You can save money by using less oil and gas. Insulating your attic with enough insulation is cheaper than purchasing fuel for your furnace, or upgrading your HVAC system. Your insulation will last several years without needing to be replaced, even though you have to fill it up every few months.
