  • Spray foam insulation can be a very useful product for enabling insulation consistency and airtightness, and depending on the situation it can be quite cost-effective, but only if you have a good contractor, and its installed with the right thickness for your climate. Efficiency Matrix covers an implementation of closed cell foam on an old metal deck roof, closing the gaps to enable a high performing room in an old garage. It’s important to get a reputable contractor to get this done. We talk about the differences in open cell and closed cell foams.

    Could spray foam be used on a pre-built motorhome to insulate it further? Can it be sprayed between exterior and interior panels?

      +Janene Williames I can’t see why not, contact a spray foam installer for more information.

    What's an approximate m2 price for open and closed cell foam?

      ashley lienert Ashley, you’ll need to call a local contractor that does this. It’s a hard question to answer with very little information.

    Will this work as sound insulation?
    Will it reduce sounds of rain?

      Not so much! When it rains, you cannot hear anything else but rain. 😊. Great for sleeping.

    Had spray foam placed under my floorboards in my house in Melbourne by a prominent spray foam company. Stuffed it up with the mixture and the house couldn't be lived in for 5 days as it was still fuming. The company didn't tell me if the risk of that at expressed surprise that it happened which was a BS claim on their part. Doubt I will do again.

      +Andrew C That’s not good mate. I had my place spray foamed under the floor, and we didn’t have any problems at all. Did they use open cell or closed cell. It’s important to make sure the contractor knows what he is doing, that’s for sure.

      I had my floor spray foamed. No problems at all! An amazing product, and will survive the test of time. The house improved airtightness by 20-30%. Mind you spent 1 week digging out and cleaning out all the rubbish that was left there back from the 1970's, so that the guy had room under the house.
