Chances are that even though your home may be insulated, it is not up to today’s standards…Stopping energy loss at the roof makes perfect sense, because once heat enters the attic it will be stored until it drifts back out, or is absorbed by the home as unwanted heat.

Sprayed or foamed-in-place applications of polyurethane insulation are usually cheaper than installing foam boards… [And] usually perform better since the liquid foam molds itself to all of the surfaces.

Roofing systems made with spray polyurethane foam (SPF) offer durability, energy savings and moisture control. This foam can be engineered down to the molecular level to optimize performance for specific applications, and can be used to cover an existing roof, thus reducing the amount of building materials sent to landfills.

Polyurethane foams have one of the highest insulating R-values per inch of all the available products on the market today. With typical values ranging from 3.5 to 6.0 per inch, it is possible to maximize efficiency, increase space utilization and reduce operating costs, while having thinner walls and a lower profile roofs.
