Can we help you with an insulation project?

In the scorching summers and chilly winters of Las Vegas, we rely heavily on our cooling and heating systems. However, optimal indoor comfort isn’t achievable without adequate insulation. Effective insulation is crucial for maintaining comfortable temperatures year-round. While various insulation types exist, expanding spray foam insulation stands out as exceptionally effective for Las Vegas homes by offering much-needed relief from the extreme heat of summers and ensuring warmth during the winter chill.

What is Spray Foam Insulation?

Your home loses heat in the winter and cool air in the summer as air escapes through gaps in a variety of places including the attic, windows, roof, and walls. To stay comfortable throughout the year, your home needs insulation to fill in those gaps. Spray foam insulation does just that. It’s sprayed as a liquid and quickly expands to fill a space, creating an air barrier and insulator all in one step. It sticks to everything it’s applied to, making it ideal for small and hard-to-reach places.

Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation

There are many benefits to using spray foam insulation in your home:

Energy Cost and Savings

Spray foam can reduce your cooling and heating bills by giving your HVAC system a rest. Conditioned air is prevented from leaving your home during summer and warm air during winter, which allows your HVAC system to run less frequently.

Fresh spray foam insulation install in new residential build.

Durability

Spray foam does not shrink, sag, or settle and sticks to most materials including masonry, cement, metal studs, wood studs, and rooflines.

Improved Indoor Air Quality

Spray foam seals penetration points, preventing pollen and other allergens from entering your home.

Newly installed foam insulation in the wall and ceiling.

Noise Reduction

Spray foam seals the cracks that noise travels through, minimizing sounds from between rooms and outside.

Both foam types are highly effective. Since our desert climate doesn’t create moisture issues, our installers predominantly utilize open cell spray foam insulation in new homes, existing homes, and commercial buildings, according to local building codes. Some customers prefer closed spray foam insulation for areas of their home, such as their wine room, because of its higher density and the added strength it contributes to their building. 

Best Places to Apply Spray Foam

Spray foam insulation is frequently used to insulate new residential and commercial construction and remodeling projects in existing homes. For new construction it can be sprayed into open walls and open attics. And once old insulation has been removed, it’s perfect for insulating the attics of existing homes.
