As the long winter finally draws to an end, we can’t help but come down with a case of spring fever! The longer days and rising temperatures also mean it’s time for homeowners to prep their properties for the season ahead with some spring cleaning.
Whether you're gearing up for allergy season, want to make sure your space stays comfortable during the warm days and cool nights, or are just looking for ways to improve your home’s overall value and energy efficiency, Epic Spray Foam is here to help!
As you take steps to prepare and protect your house for the months ahead, we recommend upgrading to spray foam insulation. Here are 6 reasons to choose this superior insulation option just in time for spring.
Poor ventilation can become a major problem in the spring. With the season comes increased moisture, pollen and other allergens, which can make your home feel less than fresh. The last thing you want is for outdoor allergens to make their way inside and cause discomfort. By encapsulating your attic with a spray foam solution, you can keep excessive moisture and allergens out.
Spray foam insulation creates an airtight seal in your home. This reduces the flow of allergens, dust, and outdoor pollutants that can sneak in through gaps and cracks in your walls, attic, and basement. By investing in high-quality spray foam insulation, you can maintain better indoor air quality and make your home a healthier environment for you and your family year-round.
As the temperatures begin to rise, you’ll want to ensure that your home stays cool without putting a strain on your HVAC system. Spray foam insulation is incredibly effective at regulating indoor temperatures.
Unlike traditional fiberglass insulation, spray foam expands upon application, filling every crack and crevice. This helps prevent warm air from entering your home in the spring and summer and cool air from escaping. As a result, you can keep your home comfortable without having to crank up the A/C or deal with fluctuating temperatures.
This not only enhances comfort but also lowers energy costs, keeping your utility bills in check. In fact, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that upgrading to spray foam insulation can save homeowners an average of 20% on their monthly energy bills. With spray foam insulation, HVAC sizing can be reduced by as much as 35% without an impact on efficiency and comfort.
Before the warmer weather sets in, take the time to inspect your home for any cracks, gaps, or areas where air may be leaking in or out. These are common culprits for both temperature fluctuations and an increase in allergens. Whether it’s around windows, doors, or your attic, sealing these gaps will not only make your home more comfortable but also help with energy savings.
Encapsulating your attic and crawlspace will ensure your entire home remains well-insulated. This helps maintain a stable indoor temperature and ensures that allergens are kept out. Plus, by ensuring your home is properly sealed, you prevent costly energy loss.
Spring brings unpredictable weather, from sudden rain showers to temperature swings. Spray foam insulation helps safeguard your home against these changes by providing a moisture-resistant barrier. Unlike other types of insulation, spray foam is highly resistant to mold or mildew growth, making it ideal for areas that may be exposed to damp or humid conditions.
Spray foam insulation also helps with soundproofing, so you won’t be as disturbed by rain, wind, or those spring thunderstorms. It may be loud and wet outside, but your home will stay quiet, clean, and comfortable on the inside!
Spring and summer bring not only warmer weather, but also a surge in pests looking for a place to call home. From insects to rodents, these unwanted visitors are often looking for any gap or crack they can slip through. Spray foam insulation can help keep pests out by sealing those gaps and cracks in your walls, foundation, and attic.
Because spray foam expands to fill voids completely, it prevents pests from squeezing through small spaces that might otherwise be left unsealed. Additionally, it provides a barrier that is difficult for pests to chew through, unlike other types of insulation. By using spray foam insulation, you can reduce the chances of pests invading your home during the warmer months and ensure a more peaceful, pest-free environment.
Lastly, investing in spray foam insulation adds value to your home. With rising energy costs and increased awareness around energy efficiency, homes with properly installed spray foam insulation are often more attractive to potential buyers. Whether you're planning to sell soon or just want to future-proof your home, spray foam is a wise choice. Plus, it contributes to a more sustainable home by lowering your energy consumption and your carbon footprint.
Whether your property is brand new or 100 years old, spray foam insulation is an excellent choice for your home because it doesn’t require frequent updating and ongoing maintenance. It’s made to last throughout the lifespan of your structure or approximately 80-100 years.
Furthermore, spray foam insulation won’t lose its shape or ability to resist air and moisture over time, as many common insulation materials do, saving you time, money, and frustration for years to come. When you combine all these benefits with the new Insulation Tax Credit, the decision just makes sense!
Spring is the perfect time to take steps to make your home safer, more energy-efficient, and comfortable. With spray foam insulation, you can enjoy an allergen-free living space, reduce your energy bills, and protect your home against all the unpredictabilities of the season.
