Why Sprayfoam Insulation?

Sprayed Urethane foam applied as insulation directly to interior of flat roofing

Foam insulation being applied to sloped metal roof

FOR INSULATION:

  • Fills cracks and gaps

  • Eliminates virtually all air leakage

  • Requires no fasteners or adhesives

  • No settling or packing like some other types of wall and ceiling insulation

  • Adds to structural integrity by bonding to and adding rigidity to framing and siding material

  • Adds comfort to your new home

  • Reduces dust and pollen infiltration

  • Highest R-rating of any insulation

  • Dampens sound

 

 

Multiple roof penetrations and skylights present no obstacle for Sprayed Urethane Foam Roofing

Sprayed Foam Roofing can often be applied over an existing roof. The one piece seamless monolithic system is finished with an elastomeric coating to protect from exposure to sunlight. This coating allows for expansion and contraction of the system without cracking or splitting. Sprayed Urethane foam roofing's self-sealing properties eliminate the need for flashing and the nightmares associated with multiple roof penetrations. (See diagram below) Ideal for flat, metal or curved or dome roofs.

Self flashing properties of Sprayed Foam Roofing are just one of the many benefits

SPRAYFOAM FOR ROOFING:

s

  • Seamless, no joints to leak

  • Lightweight- less than 100 lbs. per square

  • Self flashing to parapet walls, vents, pipes, skylights etc.

  • Flexible - tolerates normal structural movement from heating and cooling

  • Eliminate ponding in low spots by building up in those areas or sloping to direct water drainage

  • Ease of repair reduces cost of maintenance

  • In many situations costly tear off and disposal of old roof is not necessary

  • Versatile - for new construction or re-roofing on flat or pitched surfaces of any shape

  • Can pay for itself with energy savings


Many of America's largest companies such as General Motors, Ford, IBM and institutions, both public and private, including the George Bush Presidential library, rely on the superior waterproofing and energy saving advantages of sprayed foam roofing over conventional methods.

Texas A & M University began using polyurethane foam for re-roofing their facilities 20 years ago. The results of careful studies conducted by A&M showed savings on both maintenance and energy. These savings, combined with the the performance of millions of square feet of polyurethane foam roofing in place, led to the use of polyurethane foam only for all new and replacement roofing. Below is a recap of the study conducted by Gerald Scott, Director of Energy, Texas A&M University.
