Thermal spray foam insulation is used in
buildings, and refer
s
to the application of thermal insulated materials, which are applied using
various spraying methods, into a roof space or wall cavity to prevent heat loss.
Thermal spray foam insulation is an important factor to achieving thermal
comfort for the buildings occupants, and thermal spray foam insulation reduces
unwanted heat loss, and reduces the energy requirements of cooling and heating
systems. Thermal spray foam insulation simply refers to the insulating materials
being used to slow heat loss. The effectiveness of foam insulation is usually
evaluated by its R-value, but this does not take into account construction or
local environment factors. Thermal spray foam insulation is easy to apply. Foam
insulation is sprayed onto or into the underside of the roof within the
attic/loft space, and dries to rigid foam. The application of this process is
normally completed within two days. Thermal spray foam insulation does not
particularly address ventilation or sound proofing issues.
