*Epic Spray Foam ventilates each home and air exchanges during the insulation and encapsulation processes. The re-entry time on spray foam has improved over the years and manufacturers allow re-entry after a few hours, but it’s still the highly recommended and best case scenario for homeowners to plan on staying away overnight. This allows enough time for the air in your home to fully clear.
