New Technology in Roof Insulation
Now more than any other time in history is the time to take a good look at
your homes insulation, due to recent technological developments in insulation
technology. If your home in the U.S. was built before the 1970s then there is a
good chance that no insulation was installed in it when it was built. This is
because insulation wasn't even required as part of the standard building code
until the early seventies.
Now, using polyurethane foam insulation technology, you can actually insulate
the roof of your home and stop the heat from entering the attic space where it
can stay for up to twenty-four hours or more. Polyurethane foam is applied to
the actual surface of the roof before the roof is tiled or roofed over, so it
not only insulates your home but it also protects your home from leaks and water
damage, such as dry rot.
Because it is rigid and durable it lasts the lifetime of your home and will
never settle, like other insulation products tend to do. If you are worried
about your roof looking different from any other roof in any way, you don't have
to, because your roof will look no different then any other roof in the
neighborhood. For commercial and industrial buildings that have limited or no
attic space to insulate, polyurethane foam is a life saver and can make a
working area that has had heating or cooling problems in the past far more
pleasant to work in.
Mobile and modular homes have always been known for being hot in the summer,
especially if they are located in direct sunlight. Now with polyurethane foam
insulation another R19 can be added to the roof with just three inches of foam
that is both durable and attractive. Why throw your hard earned money away on
electric and gas bills when all that you really need, is to have the insulation
upgraded on your home.
