The best and unique ability of spray foams is getting into small cracks, and crevices. When the foam is sprayed directly into the cracks, it expands and dries very quick while blocking air and moisture.

Closed-cell spray foam, particularly that from Gaco, has the highest yield of R-value per inch of insulation applied. That means that it requires less physical wall cavity space to meet and surpass the code requirements. When cured, the closed-cell spray foam does not possess thermal conductivity, which means heat will not be transferred through the insulation. Certain spaces in a home such as basements or crawl spaces are prone to losing heat regardless of how much heat is added to the room. By spraying basement floors and walls with closed-cell spray foam insulation, this loss of heat and energy could be avoided.
To keep your home as energy-efficient as possible, you must seal off unfinished areas to prevent unwanted air-infiltration. Common places where this may occur in your home are crawl spaces, attics, and basements. Using either open-cell or closed-cell spray foam insulation will allow you to seal off these areas from the main living space.
Air sealing your home not only makes the building shell more energy-efficient, but it also helps to improve the energy-efficiency of your HVAC system. Don’t let the air that you are paying to warm or cool your home slip out into the areas where it isn’t needed. Contact our home energy improvement experts at SumZero Energy Systems today to have an energy audit performed on your home.
This energy audit will allow us to find the air tightness inefficiencies of your home that could be solved by air sealing with spray foam insulation.
One of the most important building components, especially in the New England area, is a vapor barrier. A vapor barrier in a home helps to prevent any dampness from getting into your home. Any sort of dampness or condensation that permeates your home could lead to mold and mildew growth.
That can now be avoided with the installation of closed-cell spray foam insulation. It is a vapor retardant material that stops dampness from permeating through it once 3.5 inches of the material is applied. This characteristic is very important when sprayed underneath the roof.
This stops condensation from occurring underneath the roof shingles, and prevents icicles from forming. Prevent water from damaging your home by creating a vapor barrier with closed-cell spray foam insulation. Learn more by contacting SumZero Energy Systems today!
The benefits of closed cell insulation are abundant. However, to be able to take advantage of all the benefits listed below, it is important that the correct type of insulation is chosen for the project at hand. Our home energy improvement experts have years of experience and extensive knowledge to assist you when it comes to choosing and installing the proper insulation all throughout your home.
When it comes to different insulation types on the market today, closed-cell spray foam insulation provides some of the highest R-values per inch. The higher the R-value, the less heat loss your home will experience throughout the year due to providing the most thermal resistance. This is what keeps heat in your home during the colder months and out of your home during the warmer months.

When you have closed-cell spray foam insulation installed in a building, it lasts for a long time. The strong seal that it creates to keep out unwanted elements combined with its strength and durability provides a little to no maintenance insulation option. Closed-cell spray foam does not settle or shift over time as much as alternative insulation types, which eliminates the need to add to or reapply the insulation.
the importance of insulation as a part of your home’s HVAC system
We use Gaco spray foam insulation products as they are one of the leading brands in the insulation industry. Gaco carries a number of foam products to fit your projects needs. Schedule a ONLINE CONSULTATION with one of our Comfort Specialists today with questions about which insulation you should choose!
It takes less closed-cell spray foam insulation to receive the same value and benefits as other insulation types, which makes it perfect for small or tight spaces that can’t handle much expansion.
The density and impermeability of GACO closed-cell spray foam makes it the best option when it comes to applying insulation beneath concrete slabs to help avoid damage from moisture and settling.
Since very little space is required for application, closed-cell spray foam works great to insulate ceilings. It’s density and air tightness also makes it perfect for application on the underside of roofs.
Whether you have exposed walls or existing walls with drywall we have the Foam solution to add structural strength as well as using its impermeability to help keep out unwanted elements.
