By controlling air leakage, your home/building will perform 30-50% better than with traditional insulation methods.

Creating an air barrier with spray foam is the smart solution for those concerned about energy efficiency. Spray foam insulation systems virtually eliminate the largest source of energy loss in the average home. Typically homes lose about 70% of the interior air every hour. Our applications can drop this value to about only 10%. Example. In a 2,500 sq. ft. home with conventional insulation

materials, you might expect to install a 40,000 to 48,000 BTU air conditioner just to maintain a minimum of cooling comfort. With Hybrid Insulation Systems, you can cut the BTU's needed by up to 40%. And for colder climates, the same principle applies for downsizing the heating system.

We also would like to encourage you to research the internet further for studies regarding energy savings related to airtightness of the building envelope. One such resource would be the Air Barrier Association of America, located on our links page.
