crawlspace and
overhang insulation
FILL EVERY OPEN SPACE
By the nature of its construct, fiberglass insulation cannot properly seal and it’s almost impossible to create a solid thermal barrier so that air cannot pass through. However, due to its unique qualities,
spray foam insulation
can readily
address this situation. It has the
properties to
fill every open space
in
the most
effective and efficient
manner.
The ceiling of a crawl space can be spray foam
insulated in either a ventilated or unventilated
APPROACH.
vented
As a vented crawl space, the ceiling may be insulated, thereby reducing heating and cooling costs.
unvented
For an unvented crawl space option, the space would receive similar temperature conditions to the rest of the premises.
A research study was conducted and it was proven that homes with sealed crawl spaces and insulated foundation walls use 18% less energy for heating and cooling homes than those with vented crawl spaces.
Some of the crawl space issues that are addressed with spray foam:
