RValue Pros Releases Information Showing Spray Foam Insulation Can Improve Indoor Air Quality
November 20, 2015 – – An insulation business based in Chesterfield, Missouri, has released new research that shows spray foam insulation not only helps to conserve energy, but it also improves overall air quality. The results were quite unexpected, as the general consensus has long been that the vapors released when applying the spray foam are actually damaging to the air quality. The company’s research has demonstrated this to be completely untrue.
“Because this kind of insulation is sprayed, there has been an automatic assumption that it presents a danger to air quality,” says a representative from RValue Pros. “We felt it was time to address this and look into what is and isn’t true. While the actual spray foam itself does have the potential to release some toxic fumes on application, once in place, it actually improves air quality. Not just that, but having it installed by a professional company like ourselves also means that no fumes escape during the application itself.”
It is known that around 90% of the average American’s time is spent indoors, and builders and others involved in property building now focus on making improvements to air quality. This is added to the blanket commitment every building company now has to being energy efficient.
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, around 25.9 million Americans currently suffer from asthma. Triggers for asthma attacks include mold, dust mites, pet dander, cockroaches and second hand smoke.
The research has clearly demonstrated that using spray foam insulation, as well as an excellent HVAC and ventilation system, can improve the overall quality of the indoor living environment. “Essentially, the material acts as an insulation, as well as an air barrier,” adds the representative from RValue Pros. “The insulation helps to minimize how many allergens and pollutants are able to enter the home and this is what improves the overall air quality.”
RValue Pros encourages everybody to contact them and to make an appointment for their spray foam contractors to survey the property. In so doing, they will soon be able to enjoy lower energy bills, as well as healthier indoor air quality.
