What Albuquerque Insulation Contractors Do
When it comes to installing your insulation, you shouldn’t hire just anyone to do it. You need professional insulation contractors who focus on the type of insulation that you want.
Our insulation contractors are experts in installing insulation, whether it’s fiberglass insulation, cellulose insulation, or spray foam insulation. At Albuquerque Spray Foam Insulation, we are mostly specialized in foam insulation such as injection foam and both types of spray foam (open and closed-cell). These are the best option to solve comfort and energy-efficient issues that homeowners and business owners usually face. There can be advantages and disadvantages to any of these specializations, that’s why it’s vital to choose the right insulation contractor that adheres to the needs of your project. |
How Spray Foam Can Save You MoneyIt’s very frustrating that you need to pay hundreds of dollars on your monthly utility bills. Added to your frustration is when your poorly insulated home or office leaves you uncomfortable, even if you have a furnace or an air conditioner running 24/7.
Your furnace or AC always works hard to make up for the air that’s escaping your space, which can increase your monthly cooling and heating bills significantly. In this case, Icynene spray insulation is the perfect option that you need. The air sealing properties of Icynene spray foam insulation can help lower the workload of your furnace or air conditioner. It’s because Icynene expands in just a matter of seconds to fill every nook and cranny where it’s spread to produce an air barrier material and insulation which can help minimize air leakage. Our spray foam insulation will help you save money by keeping you cool when you want to be cool and warm when you want to be warm. |
How it is Eco-friendly
In this day and age, common construction materials like concrete and steel are gradually becoming scarce. Additionally, these are also not good for the ecosystem. During their production and even after their use, these materials cause too much environmental waste. Hence, we need to find other alternatives.
Bio-based spray insulation sounds like heaven, right? Plants are renewable, recyclable, and non-toxic, and the excellent insulating properties of spray foam are still present. Soy-based spray foam insulation is so appealing to a lot of environmentalist’s homeowners.
The oil of soybeans, cashew shells, and castor beans is extracted from the plant to replace the MDI and isocyanates. But, it only substitutes approximately 15% of the material, leaving 85% of petroleum-based material.
However, in eco-friendly spray foam insulation, the word ‘eco’ commonly means it’s sprayed with water, and not fluorocarbons which can damage the ozone layer. It doesn’t mean it’s entirely plant-based.

How Long Does It Last and How Is It Safe
Perhaps the exceptional spray foam performance edge is that the system can last for such a long period. Other home insulation systems boast a 40 to 50-year life as if that’s amazing. And perhaps that’s admirable some 70 years ago, but nowadays we already have spray foam, which has transformed the game in a positive way which is forever!
You can expect an authentic spray foam roofing insulation to last around 20 to 35 years depending on climate, weather, maintenance, traffic, and exposure to other elements. It’s not an extremely long time but is reasonable. The actual key comes in when you look at the life of foam after re-coating it. If you stay out of your office or home during and right after installing spray foam insulation, and if the spray foam has ‘healed’ correctly, then SPF or Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation usually is considered safe. |
These are just some of the essential things to take note to make sure you’re safe during foam installation:

Why You Shouldn’t Install Spray Foam Yourself
If your place gets drafty, and you start to notice condensation on your windows, and you already have cold spots on your walls or floors, then it’s probably time to do an energy audit to know where you’re losing heat. Frequently, the best solution is wall insulation or air sealing, and it will help you save on your monthly electric bills. It may seem like an exciting DIY project, but doing spray foam insulation installation is not a venture that you should take on yourself.
Installing spray foam insulation may put your health into danger, that’s why, depending on insulation technicians is the best option. Perhaps, you don’t even have the appropriate safety equipment to prepare the place as well. Completing this kind of task on your own could do more harm to you and your home or building. Yes, doing DIY projects are exciting, but look for other projects that are easier and more satisfying than DIY spray foam insulation, soundproof insulation, or crawl space insulation. You can contact us when you need to install spray foam insulation or foam roof repair and our team of specialists will provide the most cost-effective services that you want. |
