Why Use Spray Foam Insulation?
Read below to learn why more and more Calgary home owners and commercial builders have been using spray foam insulation.
Reduce your Energy Costs:
Hydro bills have rarely been higher in Calgary. Given the soaring costs of energy, home owners are often left wondering what the best way is to increase their home energy efficiency. Increasingly people are turning to spray foam insulation as a practical and ecologically-friendly way to reduce their energy costs.
Spray foam insulation is so effective that the initial costs are usually recovered in energy savings in six years - if not sooner! With such incredible increases to home energy efficiency it is easy to understand why expanding spray foam insulation is increasingly popular. What more, the amount you save will only grow as energy costs increase with time.
Helps Allergy Sufferers & Makes Your Home More Comfortable
Do you or your family suffer from allergies to the pollen and dust that are so prevalent in western Canada? Make your home more comfortable with spray foam insulation. Given the amazing R Value and air barrier qualities of our foam insulation your home will not only maintain temperature better but also let in less dust, pollen and pollutants. What more, unlike traditional insulation, spray foam insulation does not draw in mold-causing moisture from outdoors. Asthmatics breathe easier and allergy sufferers can enjoy some relief.
And because spray foam insulation expands so much to fill all types of spaces your Calgary home will also enjoy a reduction in noise pollution. Less bothersome and annoying noise filtering through your home combined with the increased air quality means a more comfortable and peaceful home that you and your family will appreciate in years to come.
Air Tight Assurance
With our spray foam's ability to expand 20 – 30 times what it is in liquid form, it fills every crack and gap leaving an effective air tight seal. Unlike conventional fiberglass insulation you can rest assured that our spray foam insulation will never sag or gap after instillation. Spray foam insulation stays in place and increases your home's energy efficiency: something you will appreciate during the next cold Calgary winter.
Make Your House Stronger
WALLTITE ECO when applied between studs increases the racking strength of walls by 2 to 3 times. When applied with gypsum sheathing and OSB sheathing it makes the wall 50% stronger. This gives your overall structure extra support and helps in the long term preservation of your home.
Versatility
Our spray foam insulation can be applied in a variety of settings that were previously hard or impossible to insulate such as residential turrets, vaults, pony walls and frost walls. Beyond Foam Insulation will spray everything from the rim joists and cantilevers to complete wall cavities. We have also spray foamed hot tubs, cube vans, refrigeration units, shops and much more. If you have an insulating need, Beyond Foam can help you out.
Quality Assurance
Beyond Foam Insulation is an active participant in BASF’s Quality Assurance Program. We perform on site testing to ensure our spray foam insulation meets or exceeds the industry standard in density and adhesion. This guarantees that you are getting the R-value that you are quoted. Beyond Foam Insulation will also record the sub-straight temperature, ambient air temperature, humidity level and the foam density. These records are then regularly sent to BASF and kept on file. An independent 3rd party also monitors our company and the results of our foam as part of the Quality Assurance Program.
We do this so that you can rest assured you are getting the job done by the people best suited to doing it. We are Calgary’s spray foam experts and we are proud of the work we do.
Eco-efficiency
Practical spray foam insulation will work towards significantly reducing your energy costs. Wasting less energy heating your home through a cold Calgary winter is not only good for your wallet – but also good for the environment.
As well some of our products such as WALLTITE ECO set new standards of what environmentally foam should encompass. WALLTITE ECO is the first medium density polyurethane to earn the EcoLogo®, one of the most widely recognized environmental certifications in North America.
We feel this level of achievement is the new minimum standard a CCMC certified medium density polyurethane foam insulation will need to have if they want to claim being safe and environmentally sound.
