Fountain Hills Home – Spray Foam

Even as insulation contractors, we never look at insulation if we don’t have to.  So why would you want to spend extra cash on something that no one ever appreciates?  Well, have you ever had guests complain that your spare bedroom is hotter than the rest of the house? Or have you noticed that you’re A/C has a more difficult time keeping up than it used to? Or maybe your energy bill is a lot higher than your neighbors? 

If you answered yes to any of these questions you should consider insulating your house with the best of the best.  Spray foam insulation can solve many problems and offer benefits that other products cannot.  It may not be granite counter tops, but homeowners are getting more excited about it.  Peter and Linda Volny are extremely pleased with the spray foam insulation installed in their Fountain Hills home!

Peter explains that most of their neighbors with traditional insulation have much higher electricity bills. He also loves the pest protection that spray foam insulation provides. Since the home was built he has only seen 3 scorpions in his home, compared to the several dozen a year that his neighbors suffer.  Although they love their home for many other reasons, Peter and Linda love the comfort that spray foam insulation provides every day.

In a society where everything is checked and monitored, it makes sense that you would ensure the effectiveness and safety of any product for your home. Appliances, tiles, fixtures, furniture, and every other aspect of a home take careful consideration.  It should be the same with building materials that go into the skeleton of your home.  The right type of wood and quality screws and nails may not sound like the most exciting choices in comparison to interior design, but the building envelope is just as important.

Often overlooked by homeowners, is how to insulate the home. After the drywall is hung, nobody notices the insulation so why does it matter? Well, In Arizona, it is especially important to pick the right insulation.  Since we have consistently hot summers and crazy monsoon storms, insulation is the major barrier between the weather outside and the comfort of your home.  Understanding that key fact should incite a closer look at what type of insulation.

Take the advice of architects from all over.  Spray foam is gaining recognition as the no-brainer choice for builders all over the world. China, Ireland, Scotland, Czech Republic, Canada, and more are starting to use spray foam more prominently because of its long lasting benefits.  We have many articles that lay out why spray foam is such a effective material to insulate buildings, but not this post.

Many parts of the U.S. still have specific codes that make installing spray foam more difficult and more expensive.  Want to know some good news? Arizona has embraced the benefits of spray foam insulation and made it affordable to install, even in existing homes.  You don’t live in Arizona? I have good news for you too, we are still accepting applications for 2017.

So take advantage of the great product of spray foam insulation in your home today. Still unsure of the advantages? Check them out here!

ROI for home improvement projects

Although we want you to notice the entry about insulation, the entire list is helpful for other home improvement projects. We are avid remodel fans, because it takes something old and makes it beautiful again. We also understand that insulation lacks flare, like a newly surfaced kitchen boasts, but it is still a great improvement to make.

Upgrading your insulation means saving money long-term, because of energy efficiency. It also makes your home more comfortable, which is the goal of most projects. Your house will also be one step closer to selling, since insulation is a point on the home inspection list.
