Spray Foam Insulation Ireland

 


Spray foam insulation is one of the most versatile insulation materials available on the Irish market. Spray foam insulation come in 3 forms, open cell spray foam, closed cell spray foam and slow pour foam. 

Open Cell Spray Foam

Open cell spray foam is used primarily in residential application, roof, attic, floor and internal wall insulation. Open cell spray foam expands to over 200 times its size enabling it to fill every nook and cranny creating a continuous airtight seal in you attic, wall, floor or roof. Its cells are open and while it is prevents air or heat loss it allows harmful water vapour to escape preventing hazardous damp and mould. 

It is easy and quick to apply and is inert making it an ideal insulation material for attic or loft insulation. 

Closed Cell Spray Foam

Unlike open cell spray foam insulation, closed cell spray foam's expansion is 20-30 times its size forming hard coating seal that prevents both water and air escaping. Closed cell spray foam is normally used on metal or concrete structures. Its is the best insulation material for farm sheds, commercial and insulation units and container insulation. It prevents the buildup of damp and mould and is used for bot heating and cooling. 

Slow Pour Foam

Slow pour foam is used mainly to insulate wall cavities, it once again gets into every nook and cranny and is very effective at prevent heat loss.
