A Beginner's Guide to Spray Foam Insulation: Part 2


In part one of this series, we covered some of the basics of spray foam insulation in Victoria, including what it is and the benefits of choosing it for insulating your home. Today, we're continuing with even more information you won't want to miss!


Spray Foam Insulation Cost


The cost of spray foam insulation will range depending on the type of spray foam you choose, the size of your home, and the climate in which you live. In general, closed-cell spray foam insulation is more expensive than open-cell spray foam insulation. However, both types of spray foam insulation can save you money in the long run by helping to reduce your energy bills.


How to Pick the Right Type of Spray Foam Insulation


Now that you know the basics about spray foam insulation, you're probably wondering which type is right for your home. The answer depends on a variety of factors. For example, the climate in which you live, the size of your home, and your budget.


If you live somewhere with extreme temperatures, closed-cell spray foam insulation is a good choice. This type of spray foam insulation will help keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. If you live in a moderate climate (including Vancouver Island), either spray foam insulation will work well.


The size of your home is also a factor to consider when choosing spray foam insulation. Open-cell spray foam insulation may be the best choice if you have a small home. This type of spray foam is easier to apply and can be applied in smaller spaces. However, suppose you have a large home. In that case, closed-cell spray foam insulation will provide better coverage and a more effective barrier against heat and cold.


Finally, your budget is a key consideration when choosing spray foam insulation. Closed-cell spray foam insulation is more expensive than open-cell spray foam insulation but is also more effective. So if you're concerned about lowering your energy bills, closed-cell spray foam insulation is usually the better choice.
