An Easy Way to Save Thousands on Your Electric Bill. Spray Foam Insulation.

Submitted by JMA GROUP
Tue, 6 Feb 2007

40 Billion dollars are spent on heating and cooling of buildings in America. This amounts to roughly one-sixth of all electricity.

As the Spray foam is applied it expands 120 times its original volume. By doing this it fills all cracks, and spaces between building materials. This forms an air tight seal and moisture barrier that surrounds the home. After the Spray foam is applied drywall is then installed.

With the Spray foam there is no need for building wrap which saves you money. The Spray foam eliminates the need for taping, caulking, and spot foaming. Not only is the Spray foam a cheaper option but it also offers a superior performance.

Most energy loss in your home is due to air infiltration. Spray foam is the best product to eliminate this.
By keeping the air in your home will save you lots of money.

Not only is Spray foam is effective in new homes but it works in older homes to. Also, in homes with steel framed, and metal as well.

Spray foam has advantages over other common insulation materials. The Spray foam permanently and completely fills and seals all voids. You will get better thermal performance at the same cost as the other products. Fiberglass is perceived to be more of a cheaper option but this not necessary true and also it is not an effective insulation to use for things such as around the studs in your home and pipes as it is ineffective as an insulating in a wall cavity.

Spray foam also offers you a healthier solution to those other commonly used insulations. It saves you money on energy cost.

Spray foam is great in sealing attics, walls, floors, and heating and AC ducts.

Here is the other good thing about Spray foam: you only have to insulate once. So with all this information provided to you is there any other better choice to be made.
