What to Expect

If you would like to have Spray Polyurethane Foam installed in your home it is important to be well informed about what will be installed in your home and the process involved. Here are a few things to consider when having SPF insulation installed.

LEARN ABOUT THE PRODUCT YOU ARE HAVING INSTALLED

For more information about the product being installed be sure to ask questions. It is important to communicate with your contractor to be positive that you are getting exactly the product you need to suit your requirements.

Advanced Spray Foam will be able to tell you more about the chemicals involved in making the foam as well as how they will all perform. Advanced Spray Foam will also be able to provide you with a MSDS (material safety data sheet) for all products that will be used during the installation process.

If you have any questions about the MSDS it can be reviewed to help you understand the information and how it applies to you and your home. The label on the product and information from the manufacturer will also be a valuable source of information.

DISCUSS WHEN TO REOCCUPY YOUR HOME AFTER INSTALLATION

Before the installation process begins it is important to discuss the time you, your family, and your pets will need to stay out of your home.

The amount of time before you should reenter your home depends on many factors, including the SPF being used, the amount of foam being installed, as well as the temperature, humidity, the amount of ventilation and other variables.

Many manufacturers have times they recommend for reoccupancy depending on the product being installed. Most high pressure installations recommend 24 hours before returning to your home and many low pressure systems have a one hour recommended time period.

These times are variable and should always be discussed before work begins.
