Seal Your Home, Save Money

BioBased Insulation® spray polyurethane foam insulation products help to lessen the environmental impact of residential and commercial structures.

Our products increase the energy efficiency of your building — which reduces their carbon footprint. We offer products that integrate renewable ingredients to replace a portion of the petroleum-based ingredients without hindering performance. We also offer products that have replaced chemical blowing agents with water.

Why Consider BioBased Insulation®?

Spray polyurethane foam is an effective insulation because it forms an air barrier around your structure — sealing and insulating in one step. Once it is sealed, the air inside can be controlled by your heating and air unit.


Doesn’t a Home Need to Breathe?
The best thing you can do for your home is build it tight and ventilate it right. Adding ventilation to your heating and air unit will provide controlled ventilation for your home. This air seal and ventilation will usually benefit family members with asthma or allergies because they don’t have to deal with unfiltered air leaking into the home. Also by correctly conditioning the air, homes with spray foam insulation usually do not have moisture problems or mold.

How Much More Does Spray Foam Insulation Cost?

When compared to traditional insulations like fiberglass or cellulose, spray foam insulation
does cost more up front, but remember:

• You are getting an insulator and an air barrier in one product which help
to decrease you heating and cooling costs.
• Because the energy demand on your home is lower, smaller heating
and cooling systems can be installed with lower up front costs.
• You will usually finance the cost difference as part of your mortgage,
so the increase to your overall mortgage will be relatively minimal.
• Many times the energy savings from spray foam can help you qualify for
an Energy- Efficient Mortgage which can save you additional money.

How Much Can I Save by Using Spray Foam Insulation?

When BioBased Insulation® is used with other responsible building practices, you can typically save up to 50% on heating and cooling costs compared to traditionally insulated structures.
BioBased Insulation® might add a small amount to your mortgage, but it would also decrease your heating and cooling costs each month — eventually paying for itself then putting money back into
your pocket.
