Air sealing, built into the insulation.
Open cell and closed cell spray foam both work as an air barrier.
How we do it.
- Both foams seal air.Open cell and closed cell are both air barriers.
- Closed cell adds a vapor barrier.Where moisture matters, closed cell also blocks vapor.
- Attics sealed at the right line.When your ductwork is in the attic, we seal the roof deck so it sits inside the seal.
- Everything covered first.The space is covered in plastic before we spray.
How a sealed attic works.
Questions.
What's the difference between open cell and closed cell?
Open cell is used in attics, walls and for sound dampening, above grade, and works as an air barrier. Closed cell does everything open cell does except sound dampening: it's also a moisture and vapor barrier, and it adds strength.
Will there be a mess?
No. We cover everything in plastic, and the area has to be cleared so we can prep it.
How long before we can go back inside?
Contractors can go back in after 12 hours. Homeowners after 24 hours.
