We are proud to provide our customers with quality ceiling and attic spray foam insulation services.
The Importance of Ceiling, Roof, and Attic Insulation
One of the most cost-effective ways to improve your building’s energy efficiency is to add sufficient ceiling, roof, and attic insulation. A poorly insulated or uninsulated ceiling, roof, or attic will cause you to lose a good majority of the heat from your home or building during the winter and will allow unwanted hot air to enter during the summer.
In addition, adding ceiling and attic insulation will prevent warm, moist air from escaping from the house, office, or pole barn and into the attic which can cause condensation on the roof underside, potentially leading to mold development and structural damage. Adding attic and roof insulation can also assist in preventing ice damming during the winter.
Why Spray Foam Insulation?
Spray foam insulation not only works well in walls, but it also performs exceptionally for both attic insulation and ceiling/roof insulation.
There have been a lot of opinions regarding the use of spray foam insulation for attic and roof insulation. You may hear negative things are said about this tactic, like it may rot out the roof deck, make the shingles curl, or that the attic needs to breathe. All of these factors can be easily explained using building science and are simply not true. Our spray foam insulation experts at KC Spray Foam & Coatings.
