Enhancing Home Efficiency With Our Spray Foam Insulation

Open-Cell Spray Foam Insulation

Open-cell foam gives your home insulation and acts as an effective sound barrier. It's lighter and less expensive than its close-cell counterpart, but also aids in energy efficiency.

Closed-Cell Spray Foam Insulation

Our high-density, closed-cell spray foam ensures robust insulation and greater heating and cooling savings. This highly-resistant material also doubles as a water vapor barrier offering excellent durability.

Energy Efficiency Consultation

We provide consultation to determine the right type of spray foam for you. We take numerous factors into account, such as energy efficiency, cost effectiveness, and specific home needs.

Safe and Effective Installation

Safety is our priority. We ensure all installed products are not only effective in energy conservation but also harmless to the occupants. Efficiency and safety meet in our quality installations.

Air Quality Improvement

By sealing off all nooks and crannies, spray foam insulation prevents allergens, dust, and outdoor pollutants from infiltrating your home, improving indoor air quality.

Moisture Barrier

Unlike other forms of insulation, spray foam effectively acts as a moisture barrier, reducing the risk of mold growth and water damage in your home's structure.

Cost-Effective

While the upfront cost of spray foam insulation may be higher than other types, the energy savings over time make it a cost-effective choice long term.

Our Process in Four Effective Steps

spray foam insulation

01

Heating and Preparation: The initial stage involves heating two liquid components that create the foam. Proper heating is crucial to form a high-quality foam that provides optimal insulation.

02

Application Using High-Pressure System: A high-pressure proportioner system is used to spray the foam. Through a spray gun equipped hose, the heated liquids are combined and sprayed into the areas that need insulation.

03

Rapid Expansion and Even Spread: The sprayed liquid expands up to 120 times its original volume, converting into solid foam securing millions of tiny bubbles. It is evenly applied until achieving the appropriate thickness.

04

Trimming and Cleanup: If drywall will cover the insulated area, the foam is trimmed flush with the framing members. Any debris from the installation is thoroughly cleaned up and discarded, alongside prep materials.

FAQs

  • Is spray foam installation a DIY project or should it be done by a professional?

    While spray foam insulation may seem like a feasible DIY project, it requires precise knowledge and expertise for an effective application. The foam needs to be mixed at the correct ratio and heated to the right temperature. It’s also important to apply the foam evenly and at the correct thickness. Incorrect installation can lead to less effective insulation and possible structural damage. 

    At Bauer Specialty, our professional team ensures safe and proper installation, maximising energy efficiency results. 


    Serving Erie and surrounding areas in Pennsylvania, Bauer Specialty is dedicated to providing top-quality home improvement services tailored to your specific needs.


  • What is the difference between open-cell and closed-cell spray foam insulation?

    Open-cell and closed-cell spray foam have different densities and provide unique benefits. Open-cell foam is less dense and, while it insulates effectively, it also acts as a sound barrier. It’s less expensive but offers lower resistance to heat flow, or R-value. Closed-cell foam, on the other hand, is denser, providing high thermal resistance and adding structural support. It can also act as a moisture barrier. At Bauer Specialty, we offer both types, and our professionals can advise on the best choice for your specific needs.

  • Are there any health risks associated with spray foam insulation?

    Spray foam is typically non-toxic and safe for in-home use. However, during installation, the spray foam releases fumes that shouldn't be inhaled; it's why our professional team always uses proper safety equipment. Once the foam hardens and the area is ventilated, it poses no health risks. Our team also ensures thorough cleanup after installation. Consultation with our insulation specialists can alleviate any concerns about the safety and health aspects of spray foam insulation.
