Insulation Contractor generates a lot of discussion among building scientists, construction professionals and home owners alike. Some say it’s good for the environment, helps lower energy bills and reduces the need for repairs. Others are not so sure, claiming that it’s contributing to global warming and is a health hazard.
At South Central Services, we’re frequently asked what exactly is spray foam and how does it work? The simple answer is that spray foam is polyurethane foam, which is a type of plastic. To create the foam, two liquid chemical components undergo a chemical reaction, producing a dense foam that is extremely durable and air and vapor resistant.

In other words, it is a powerful insulator that doesn’t lose its R-Value over time and is perfect for new construction projects as well as attics, crawl spaces, and rim joists. It can also be used in existing homes and metal buildings, as long as there is access to the walls, attics, or crawl spaces.
When sprayed, the foam expands to fill in all the tiny gaps and holes found in walls, attics, and crawl spaces that typically contribute to increased energy bills and air leakage. Unlike other types of insulation, spray foam acts as both an insulator and an air barrier, sealing those nooks and crannies that let escaping air drive up your heating and cooling costs. When properly installed, the resulting airtight seal can cut your energy expenses by up to 30%.
