The Importance of Spray Foam for Commercial Buildings

Spray foam insulation is one of the best energy investments you can make for your construction project. The upfront cost can be substantial, but the return on investment is unbeatable. The power of spray foam lies in its ability to insulate and air seal in one easy step. Sprayed on as a liquid foam, it expands and hardens to fill the tiny gaps and cracks throughout your building envelope. It eliminates air leaks and creates an effective thermal barrier that lasts for many years.

Spray foam comes in two forms: open cell and closed cell. Open-cell spray foam is a lightweight foam with an R-value of approximately 3.8 per inch. Closed-cell spray foam has a higher R-value of approximately R-6 to R-7 per inch. It is also denser and provides a vapor barrier that open-cell foam does not.

Local builders choose spray foam for their building projects because it:

  • Meets stringent energy codes easily.

  • Combats Delaware’s moisture and humidity: Closed-cell foam provides an effective moisture barrier to help keep moist air out.

  • Enhances energy efficiency: Spray foam’s continuous seal reduces HVAC load and operational costs. This is ideal for commercial buildings that operate 24/7.

  • Improves indoor comfort and air quality by eliminating air leaks and reducing airborne pollutants. Closed-cell foam also resists mold growth thanks to its moisture barrier.

  • Adds structural integrity: Closed-cell foam reinforces walls and roofs, improving the strength of the building during storms.

  • Lowers energy bills.

  • Leaves a smaller carbon footprint thanks to lower energy use.

  • Reduces outdoor noise transfer to create a quieter indoor environment.

  • Reduces outdoor noise transfer to create a quieter indoor environment.

We install both closed-cell and open-cell spray foam. Both types are highly effective insulators and air sealers with high R-values. Closed cell is more dense than open cell and provides a durable moisture barrier that open-cell does not. This makes closed-cell spray foam an ideal choice for our moisture rich climate.

Areas We Insulate in Commercial Buildings

Whether you’re building a school, restaurant, or office building, it’s important to insulate and air seal the places that make the biggest impact on your building’s energy efficiency. Such places include the attic, crawl space, and exterior walls.

Attic rooflines

A building loses the most energy through the attic roof. Installing spray foam along the attic roofline is an effective way to prevent this energy loss. It creates a sealed, conditioned attic that helps keeps the building’s attic space and work environment below comfortable year-round.

Crawl spaces

Some Delaware commercial buildings are built with a crawl space below. For those structures, we provide crawl space conditioning services. This service involves laying a poly liner on the crawl space floor to keep out moisture. Next closed-cell spray foam is installed on the upper walls to insulate and seal air leaks. Once sealed, unclean air is blocked from entering the floor above and affecting its indoor air quality and comfort.

Exterior walls

Valuable air easily flows out through under insulated exterior walls while unwanted outside air flows right in. Stop this energy loss with spray foam insulation. The best time to insulate your building project’s exterior walls is during construction when the wall cavities on the interior side are wide open. They can easily be filled with spray foam and then closed up for maximum effectiveness.
