What is Spray Foam Insulation?

Spray foam insulation can be categorized into two different types: open cell and closed cell.

Open cell foam insulation

Open cell is a type of foam where the tiny cells are not completely closed. Open cell is less expensive because it uses fewer chemicals. It is a very good air barrier but does not provide any type of water vapor barrier. It is much more sponge-like in appearance. It is often used for interior walls because it provides sound reduction. It is not recommended for outdoor applications.

Closed cell foam insulation

Closed cell foam insulation is much denser than open cell. It has a smaller, more compact cell structure. It is a very good air barrier as well as a water vapor barrier. It is often used in roofing projects or other outdoor applications, but can be used anywhere in the home.

How to Insulate my Basement Walls?

jomerous — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 08:30:56 +0000

If you live in New York NY, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Manhattan, The Bronx, Long Island NY or anywhere colder, your basement walls should be insulated. In climate zones 4 and higher, basement insulation is required by the 2016 International Residential Code. (In climate marine zone 4), and R-15 in marine zone 4 and climate zones 5, 6, 7, and 8.

CLOSED-CELL FOAM

If you want to insulate the interior of your basement wall with Spray Foam, specify closed-cell Spray Foam, not open-cell foam. Closed-cell foam does a better job of stopping the diffusion of moisture from the damp concrete to the interior. Frame the 2×4 wall before the Spray Foam is installed, with a gap of about 2 in. between the 2x4s and the concrete.

If your home lacks basement-wall insulation, it’s much easier to install interior insulation than exterior insulation. Here’s how to do it correctly.

Make sure your basement is dry

Before installing any interior-wall insulation, verify that your basement doesn’t have a water-entry problem. Diagnosing and fixing water-entry problems in existing basements is too big a topic to be discussed here (but see “Build a Risk-Free Finished Basement,” FHB #248). Suffice it to say that if your basement walls get wet every spring or every time you get a heavy rain, the walls should not be insulated until the water-entry problem is solved.

Use foam insulation

The best way to insulate the interior side of a basement wall is with foam insulation that is adhered to or sprayed directly on the concrete. Any of the following insulation materials are acceptable for this purpose: closed-cell spray polyurethane foam or either XPS, EPS, or polyisocyanurate rigid foam. Rigid foam can be adhered to a poured-concrete or concrete-block wall with foam-compatible adhesive or with special plastic fasteners such as Hilti IDPs or Rodenhouse Plasti-Grip PMFs. To prevent interior air from reaching the cold concrete, seal the perimeter of each piece of rigid foam with adhesive, caulk, high quality flashing tape, or canned Spray Foam.

How long does spray foam insulation take to dry?

Spraying a mist of water on the substrate or/and between layers of foam can speed up the curing process. Typically, it can take between 5 and 60 minutes for the foam to become tack-free. Full cure may be reached in a time range of about 8 to 24 hours, depending on the product and site conditions.

Does closed cell foam need a vapor barrier?

jomerous — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 08:12:58 +0000

Closed cell foam insulation acts as a vapor barrier and does not absorb moisture; at the same time, the insulation prevents leakage
A vapour barrier is not necessary with closed-cell foam but with open-cell spray foam it is sometimes required. Any air that migrates though a building envelope will carry water vapour. … It is also vapour permeable, so any moisture in the property can escape through the insulation as it dries out.

Is open cell spray foam better than fiberglass?

jomerous — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 08:02:03 +0000

Spray foam insulation has a higher R-value than fiberglass, making it a better insulator. Another difference between them is that spray foam is watertight while fiberglass cracks under moisture. However, installing spray foam requires a professional while fiberglass is easy to install yourself.

How Does Spray Foam Compare to Fiberglass?

jomerous — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 07:50:42 +0000

The easiest way to compare any form of insulation is to place it side-by-side along what most of us know: fiberglass insulation. Compared to fiberglass, spray foams offer a lot of advantages.

Take a look at the following:

Foam is more energy efficient
The R-Value of closed cell foam is 300% that of fiberglass
It’s estimated to last for 80 years
It stops air and moisture from getting in
Adds to the structural integrity of the building itself
Foam spray frequently has a fire-retardant additive

It also costs quite a bit more, which is the biggest reason that it’s not being used as the gold standard in new construction these days.

If you’re looking to make your home more energy efficient then you’ll want to evaluate the costs. The savings of the higher R-value foams and longer lifespan of foams will more than make up for things over the lifetime of a building.

Basically, spray foam insulation is superior to standard fiberglass insulation in pretty much every way but it costs more.

Why is closed cell foam so expensive?

jomerous — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 07:34:05 +0000

Closed cell foam costs more than open cell foam because it is a denser material with less expansion, and therefore requiring more material to cover a designated area. Closed cell foam also provides a higher R-value because the cells are filled with high R-value chemicals
