Spray polyurethane foam is applied as a liquid and expands to fill gaps, cracks, and irregular cavities. Once cured, it creates insulation and an air-sealing layer within the building assembly.
Spray foam can reduce uncontrolled air leakage, improve comfort, support moisture management, reduce sound transfer, and improve the performance of the building envelope.
Open-cell foam is lower density and is commonly used for air sealing and sound control. Closed-cell foam is denser, provides a higher insulating value per inch, and can serve in assemblies requiring greater moisture resistance. The appropriate product depends on the building and application.
Anchor Building Solutions uses computer-controlled Akurate Dynamics equipment. Projects include third-party Ad-Ace conformance reporting against manufacturer specifications.
By reducing air leakage and helping the building envelope perform more consistently, spray foam can reduce the demand placed on heating and cooling equipment. Actual results vary by building, existing conditions, and the scope of work.
Applications can include attics, rooflines, walls, crawlspaces, basements, rim joists, garages, pole barns, metal buildings, commercial facilities, agricultural buildings, additions, and new construction.
Yes. Because sound can travel through cracks and air pathways, sealing those gaps can help reduce sound transfer from traffic, plumbing, mechanical equipment, and adjacent spaces.
Spray foam can reduce moisture carried by uncontrolled air movement through the building envelope. It is not a substitute for repairing active water leaks or correcting drainage problems.
A conditioned attic is created by insulating and air sealing at the roofline rather than at the attic floor. This brings the attic and equipment located there into the building’s conditioned envelope.
