To use this spray foam calculator:<\/strong> Spray foam is available in two different types: open-cell spray foam<\/b> which is usually $1.00 to $1.20<\/b> per square foot and closed-cell spray foam<\/b> which is about $1.25 to $1.50<\/b> per square foot (1\u2033 by 12\u2033 x 12\u2033 area of coverage). The average cost to have\u00a0spray foam professionally installed is about $2,400 <\/b>for a 1,600 sq. ft. home. If you need 3\u2033 inches of foam depth, the price above would be triple the cost.<\/p>\n Spray foam insulation has many uses and often thought as, the ultimate insulator for your home. However, installing spray foam insulation<\/span> is much more costly than its predecessors and should be taken into consideration when remodeling your home or new construction budget.<\/p>\n However, in the long-run, the costs vs value over traditional insulation outweighs the costs with yearly savings. Where to use spray foam insulation? To get the most value and stretch your dollars, choose these areas:<\/p>\n Types of spray foam:<\/strong> Open-Cell and closed-cell spray foam both insulate by blocking air-flow in tight envelope and can be used in new construction and existing homes. But that\u2019s where the similarities end.<\/p>\n Open-cell foam costs slightly less for the same thickness, but offers lower R-value. It has an R-Value of 3.5-3.6 per inch, and its density is bout 0.5 pounds per cubic foot. Furthermore, open-cell insulation requires a vapor retarder like sheetrock or plastic sheets stapled onto the interior walls.<\/p>\n Closed-cell\u2019s obvious advantages compensate for its slightly higher price tag of 15% to 30% for the same thickness. closed cell spray foam<\/span> (aka two-pound foam) is denser than open-cell at about 2 pounds per cubic foot. Its R-Value is roughly 6.5 per inch.\u00a0 The primary reason closed-cell doesn\u2019t need a vapor retarder, is because it already has one due to its density and mixture.<\/p>\n External References:<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/img> 1496<\/span> people found this helpful.
