About

Is spray foam any good?

Good for direct on metal spraying.

Expensive but high R - [1]


Advantages

  • Longer life - claimed 80 years vs usual 20 years [2]. But, undamaged fiberglass also asts 100 years [3]
  • May form watertight seal but don't count on it, for example under PV panels?

Sourcing

  • $1.2 per sf per R6 (1" thick) - [4]

Polyethylene Foam

Polyethylene foam - R15 at 50 cents/sf [5]
