Foam Insulation: The Durable Choice for Energy Efficiency
Why Choose Foam Insulation?
Foam Insulation is a rigid, high-performance insulating material that enhances a building's thermal resistance, reduces energy costs, and improves overall comfort. Unlike Spray Foam Insulation, which expands upon application, rigid Foam Insulation comes in pre-manufactured boards or panels that provide a consistent and reliable insulation barrier.
Types of Foam Insulation
- Polyisocyanurate (Polyiso) Foam – High R-value per inch, moisture-resistant, and ideal for roofing and wall sheathing.
- Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) Foam – Offers a balance of cost and performance, commonly used for basement and foundation insulation.
- Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Foam –
Affordable, lightweight, and often used for structural insulated panels (SIPs).
Comparison Table: Foam Insulation vs. Other Insulation Types
| Insulation Type | R-Value per Inch | Moisture Resistance | Cost | Durability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Foam Insulation (XPS) | 5.0 | High | $$ | High |
| Foam Insulation (EPS) | 4.0 | Moderate | $ | Moderate |
| Foam Insulation (Polyiso) | 6.5 | High | $$$ | High |
| Fiberglass Batt Insulation | 3.2 | Low | $ | Moderate |
| Blown-In Cellulose Insulation | 3.7 | Low | $$ | Moderate |
Where to Use Foam Insulation
- Attic Insulation – Prevents heat loss and improves energy efficiency.
- Wall Insulation – Enhances thermal performance and soundproofing.
- Crawl Space Insulation – Protects against moisture and drafts.
- Garage Insulation – Maintains temperature stability for attached garages.
Recommendations for Foam Insulation Installation
- Use Foam Insulation with a proper vapor barrier in humid climates.
- Combine Rigid Foam Insulation with Blown-In Insulation for added efficiency.
- Seal gaps with Foam Sealant for Mice to prevent pest infiltration.
- Consider Foam Insulation for AC ducts to enhance HVAC efficiency.
