Applying Spray Foam Insulation Safely and Effectively

Since spray foam insulation is created on-site through a chemical reaction, it’s important to work with an insulation company whose staff has been thoroughly trained on how to apply these chemicals both safely and effectively.

The safety plan for your building must include the application procedures recommended by the product manufacturer, a review of any potential safety hazards on the jobsite, proper set up of all equipment including ladders and scaffolding, start-up and shut-down processes for SPF process equipment and building equipment like HVAC systems, an overspray mitigation plan, and communication procedures.

Applying spray foam insulation is an art unto itself. To get the best results, it’s necessary to review ambient and substrate conditions prior to installation. You must also closely follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the thickness of individual passes and the cooling time between those passes. To maximize thermal performance, it’s critical to adhere to the manufacturer’s recommendations and code requirements for total thickness, to monitor the overall thickness of the spray foam to maintain quality throughout the installation process.
