Unlike a blanket or fiberglass insulation, spray foam insulation can conform to the space it is installed in. It can fit into spaces around electrical outlets and light fixtures, where walls meet windows and doors. It can also be applied to ceilings and rim joists to create an air-tight envelope. It can save your home hundreds of dollars off utility bills each year.

Spray Foam Insulation Costs

The cost of spray foam depends on the size of the space and the thickness you choose. However, the overall price is typically less than a traditional ISO board installation and should be considered within your budget.

Closed-cell spray foam costs about $1.00 per square foot. Opting for a low GWP blowing agent such as HFOs will increase your installation costs by 10 to 15 percent. However, this high-performance alternative will cut energy costs by up to 15 percent at the same time.

Getting Mortgages with Spray Foam Insulation

If your property has spray foam roof insulation, the RICS advises that you should keep all paperwork from the installation to assist you should you need to sell or remortgage the house in the future. This includes independent test certificates which are awarded to spray foam products by organizations such as the British Board of Agreement.

Spray foam insulation is non-toxic only after it has been cured. During the spraying and curing process it off-gases volatile organic compounds which can cause blurred vision, headaches, and difficulty breathing. It is therefore important to use protective gear during installation.
