Erik Halvorsen writes about spray foam and building insulation for Cascadia Spray Foam of Seattle, helping homeowners and building owners around Seattle, WA understand their insulation options and what to expect from a professional installation.
Spray foam seals building gaps because it expands, bonds to the framing and cures into one airtight layer that follows every angle, which batts and boards can’t do around odd shapes.
Insulation evens out hot and cold rooms by slowing heat flow so every room gains or loses heat at about the same pace. Seal the air leaks first, then fill the weak spots with the right insulation.
Cutting heat loss on a large commercial building means treating the whole envelope as one system: insulation slows heat flow, air sealing stops leaks, and continuous insulation blocks heat that slips through steel framing.
