RESIDENTIAL SPRAY FOAM
Spray Foam Insulation for West Michigan Homes
Here in West Michigan, homes have to withstand both hot summers and cold winters.
Proper insulation helps keep cold air out in the winter and hot air out in the summer, making your home more comfortable. At the same time, it prevents the heat or cold inside your home from escaping, putting less pressure on your heating and air conditioning system and reducing energy costs.

WHY SPRAY FOAM?
Spray foam insulation has become increasingly popular in West Michigan because it saves families money on their monthly energy bills.
Out of the many insulation types to choose from, such as fiberglass, cellulose, batt, and blown-in, spray foam has the highest R-Value. This means it’s the best at resisting heat transfer. So, if you want to save energy and money while keeping comfortable in your home, spray foam could be the perfect solution. Non-toxic and environmentally friendly, spray foam insulation can also make your home quieter and improve air quality by sealing out dust, pollutants, and allergens.
Open Cell Spray Foam
Spray foam is made up of small bubbles called “cells.” The two types of spray foam are open cell and closed cell. Open cell foam is softer and more flexible because its cells aren’t completely closed off. This allows the foam to expand as it cures, making it an excellent choice for filling up all the nooks and crannies other insulation, even closed cell foam, might leave open.
The benefits of open cell spray foam are that it’s affordable, easy to install, and expands to cover lots of space.
Closed Cell Spray Foam
Closed cell foam is much denser than open cell because the cells are rigid and pressed together. Although closed cell foam doesn’t expand as much as open cell, it’s better at locking out moisture and air.
The benefits of closed cell spray foam are that it adds to structural integrity, locks out moisture, and insulates against more extreme temperatures.

WHERE TO USE RESIDENTIAL SPRAY FOAM
Wall
Avoid losing heat through the walls of your home or overworking your air-conditioner during a heatwave. Insulating outer walls with spray foam can result in fewer “cold spots” and lower energy bills.
Attics
If you live in an older home and are experiencing drafts and high energy bills, it may be because it’s time to upgrade the insulation in your attic. Adding spray foam insulation to your attic is a cost-effective and easy way to make your home more comfortable and energy-efficient.
Crawl Spaces
Do your feet get cold walking across your floor during the winter? Insulating the crawl space below your home can help prevent the cold from seeping in through the floor. Spray foam is perfect for these tough-to-access spaces.
Garages
Want a warmer garage in winter and cooler in summer? Especially if your garage is connected to your house, spray foam insulation is a great idea for making your garage a more comfortable and energy-efficient space.
