Spray-in-place insulation offers a variety of benefits, including competitive thermal performance and void-free cavities. Several manufacturers are adding spray-in insulation to their product lines, while others are improving their existing offerings.
Comprised of the maker's ProPink Complete Loosefill Insulation and ProPink Complete Non-Woven Fabric, the Owens Corning ProPink Complete blown-in insulating system is ideal for walls, ceilings, or enclosed cavities. Providing R-values up to 15 in a 2x4 wall, the fiberglass loosefill resists settling and mold growth. The manufacturer says that the system's form-fitting installation provides acoustical benefits. 800.438.7465. www.owenscorning.com..
North Carolina Foam Industries' InsulStar spray-in-place insulation system is applied as a two-part liquid that reacts to form a solid foam air and moisture barrier. The manufacturer says that an antimicrobial ingredient inhibits the growth of mold in the foam. Applied in a 2-inch thickness, InsulStar provides an R-value of 13. The closed-cell foam is formulated from renewable agricultural resources using an ozone-friendly blowing agent. 866.678. 5283. www.insulstar.com..
