Residential areas that contain rim-joists, small surface areas, frost walls with multiple tie-ins, and joist ends can be hard to insulate as they're difficult to reach. Calgary Insulation has a solution with the help of our spray foam insulation services! Our Calgary attic insulation contractors can apply spray foam insulation that will keep your home protected from the elements and very energy efficient all year long. In order to determine if spray foam insulation is the right product for your house, our Calgary insulation experts must analyze your residential property. But first, they ask that you conduct the following “spray foam insulation inspection”:

• We require full access to the areas of your home that require spray foam insulation. All cladding must be removed so that entire surface areas are visible.
• Our company is often asked to open up walls or remove cladding. Although we would love to help, our Calgary attic insulation contractors are insulators and do not possess the tools or resources required to perform such services. If you are in need of general contracting services we suggest consulting this BBB list of accredited home renovation companies.
• Moisture issues must be addressed on site prior to considering spray foam insulation as it is not suitable for sealing water damaged areas, especially if the source has not been resolved. If our spray foam insulation is applied to a wet surface it may de-laminate.

Our Calgary attic insulation pros will discuss the many advantages of our spray foam insulation products with you during their initial, in-home visit. Calgary Insulation offers two types of spray foam insulation for residential use:

• Open cell (or half-pound foam) spray foam insulation is perfect for use in for tight spaces because of its expansion characteristics. It is a very affordable option, and it has great sound proofing properties.
• Close cell (or two-pound foam) spray foam insulation has a higher R-value per depth inch with a minimum 2” depth application. It's very effective at sealing all penetrations and provides a fantastic attic vapor barrier.

Once you have selected the spray foam insulation material you desire, our Calgary attic insulation contractors ask that you complete our “spray foam insulation installation to-do list”:

• Your property must be vacated for 24 hours after our spray foam insulation is applied to ensure proper off-gassing. The details are contained in this waiver which is required for all lived in premises. Please take into account this health and safety protocol when considering the viability of your insulation project.
• The areas in which our spray foam insulation is to be applied must be cleared of all loose particles such as dust or other forms of debris. The foam agent is sprayed at a very high rate of speed so we need to ensure the safety and quality of our installation process.
• Our spray foam insulation must be covered by an approved thermal barrier such as Hibar fiber or drywall.
