Do any of your products contain Urea Formaldehyde?
No! Modern day spray foams do not contain any urea formaldehyde in their production. They are safe for you and your family.

 

Is spray foam environmentally friendly?
Yes our products are environmentally safe. There are zero ozone depleting chemicals in their manufacture. There are no solvents released into the atmosphere during its application.

 

What about the flammability of spray foam ?

Spray foam will not sustain flame upon removal of the flame source. 

 

Are there any electrical wiring overheating problems associated with the application of spray foam?
NO! spray foam has been tested and is not a concern to electrical authorities.

 

Do insects and vermin eat spray foam insulation?
Spray foam offers no food value but it would not present a sufficient barrier to their entry if they decided to chew through it.

 

Does spray foam support bacteria or fungal growth?
No! spray foam does not retain water and is inert; therefore it does not support bacteria or fungal growth

 

Will spray foam absorb water?
No! Our closed cell foam resists water. If a small piece were to be placed in a bucket of water it would float, and not absorb, or wick water. If it were submerged in a bucket of water, it would become saturated, and upon removal it would dry rapidly and loose none of it's insulating properties. It doesn't hold water, the open cells allow the water to pass through it.

 

Will spray foam change physically over time?
No! Spray foam is inert. Once the foam reaction is complete, you are left with an inert, cellular plastic. It will never sag, shrink, or settle. 

 

 

What are the acoustic properties of spray foam?
If you are looking for sound deadening, open cell foam is both better and more cost effective. As an effective air seal, FreedomSeal 500 eliminates the air gaps through which sound travels and is superior in controlling mid-range frequencies which include the most common sounds; the human voice, stereo music and plumbing noise. A lot of the sound waves are absorbed as they find their way through the foam.

 

 

Will open cell foam entrap moisture?
No! Our open cell is a breathing foam.  Any moisture in the building's concrete or lumber can escape through the insulation as the building dries out, thus eliminating any risk of mold or mildew.

 

Is the foam insulation corrosive to metals?
Spray foams are non-corrosive. They are neutral, neither acidic or alkaline, and therefore ideal for metal construction.
