Did you know the average electricity bill for Long Island homeowners is approximately 20% more than the rest of the US? Properly applying spray foam insulation to your home can drastically reduce energy consumption, decreasing energy costs. Here is some information on spray foam insulation to help Long Island homeowners maximize their energy efficiency.
Spray Foam Insulation for Long Island Homes
Spray foam insulation is a highly effective thermal barrier, minimizing heat transfer throughout your home. In addition to its high-performance insulation properties, spray foam has other benefits, including:
- Moisture control: Closed-cell spray foam helps prevent water vapor from entering the building envelope, reducing the risk of mold and mildew growth.
- Noise reduction: Spray foam’s sound-dampening properties decrease external noise from infiltrating your home.
- Longevity: Our spray foam insulation warranty is valid for the entire life of the structure where we install it.

Spray Foam for Air-Sealing
Spray foam expands upon application, filling hard-to-reach gaps and creating a seamless air barrier. This eliminates air leaks while reducing drafts and improving indoor air quality. Spray foam’s air-sealing qualities enhance the performance of your HVAC system, enabling it to run more efficiently and potentially decreasing the need for costly repairs or replacements.
