Does Spray Foam Insulation need a Vapor Barrier?

Vapor barriers are sheets of foil or plastic used to prevent moisture or water vapor from entering. Heat is lost from a building by the movement of air and the movement of moisture. Thus when insulation is used, vapor barriers are used over the insulation material to prevent moisture from escaping.
​
However, if you install spray foam insulation in Huntington, WV you will not need to install a vapor barrier because the spray form itself acts as a vapor barrier.

Does spray foam insulation smell?

You may have heard that spray foam insulation in Huntington, WV leaves a nasty smell in your home. However, this depends upon the quality of product your insulation contractor is using. Generally, closed cell spray foam insulation is associated with odor, but keep in mind that all products are not the same.

While some types of spray foam have a stronger smell, other types of spray foam may not smell at all. Your insulation contractor may advise you to vacate your home for up to 48 hours. The best way to get rid of spray foam odor from your home is to prevent it. You can do this by making sure that the area is well ventilated. The more fresh air you get into your home, the less it will smell.
​
A good insulation contractor will always make sure to keep the area ventilated while installing spray foam for attic insulation, wall insulation, and crawl space insulation and so on.

Preparing Your Home for the Installation of Foam Insulation

If you want to install spray foam insulation in Huntington WV, you will need to prepare the area in which it will be applied. Since most spray foam products off-gas for a couple of hours, your insulation contractor will advise you whether you need to leave your home or not.
​
Here are the steps to keep in mind:
  • The old insulation will need to be removed – Before installing new spray foam insulation in Huntington, WV, your spray foam insulation contractor will remove all of the old insulation whether it is cellulose or fiberglass. You can do this by yourself but it may be hard to reach certain areas like the crawlspace or the attic.
  • Remove things– Spray foam insulation is sticky and it makes sense to remove extra items in the area where it will be sprayed. If you have a lot of storage boxes in your attic, basement or pole barn, move it out of the way or cover things that cannot be moved.
