Lx5 Insulators of Tulsa are made from 2 types of composite materials, polyurethane and isocyanate, which are combined when sprayed out of a special insulated spray gun. When the material comes into contact with air it expands to fill all the cracks and nooks in a space insulating the area better than fiberglass or cellulose insulation. It also has a superior moisture barrier, preventing the spread of mold and other unhealthy substances. This type of insulation is known as green building and energy efficient allowing homeowners to cut their utility bills.
Spray Foam Insulation vs. Traditional Insulation | Lx5 Insulators of Tulsa
Using less energy with the same amount of heating and cooling means your HVAC system will not need to work as hard, reducing wear and tear on the equipment and extending its lifespan. Foam insulation prevents heat transfer between hot and cold areas in your home allowing you to enjoy comfortable indoor temperatures all year long. It also reduces sound transmission between different rooms, decreasing unwanted noise from neighbors and traffic. Foam insulation can also deter pests and other unwanted intruders, keeping them from entering your home.
Once the installation crew arrives at your home or commercial structure they will first remove any existing insulation in the area to be sprayed. This can include the attic, crawl space or rim joist in an existing home, the walls and floor of a new construction home or pole barn, or the unfinished walls of a commercial structure. Once the area is ready, the spray rig will be brought into place where the professional technician mixes and sprays the foam. Both closed and open cell spray insulation are available, with closed-cell being a bit more expensive but physically stronger. It also creates an air and vapor barrier in one, meaning homeowners who are concerned with vapor and moisture do not need to add a separate vapor barrier after the foam dries.
