How Long Does It Take to Install Spray Foam Insulation?
- The size of the area or space being insulated
- How accessible that space is
- Temperatures and humidity levels in the space
- Installing spray foam insulation is one part of the process: Before the installation can begin, we’ll need time to set up the space safely. Then, after the product has been applied, additional time will be needed so that the product can cure and we can safely clean up the space..
- You, your family, and your pets will need to leave during the installation: : As spray foam insulation is applied, it can emit odors and particles that are risky to inhale. While the installation team will wear safety masks and gear to avoid inhaling these odors and particles, it’s safestfor you, your family, and your pets to stay out of the home until the installation is complete.

Frequently Asked Questions
Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation
- Spray foam insulation won’t settle over time: Unlike fiberglass and cellulose products, spray foam won’t settle. Experienced installers can fill cracks and cavities that would otherwise leak air. Spray foam simply insulates better for the long haul.
- It’s highly efficient: While it costs more than some other options, spray foam insulation has excellent R-value per inch (so you can use less and save more energy). Open-cell and closed-cell varieties give you options for spray foam insulation in different parts of the home.
- It can be installed anywhere: In homes with mediocre insulation, spray foam insulation can be applied wherever it needs to go, with minimal disruption to the walls. Your old insulation can even be left right where it is, with the spray foam added on and around it!
Open-Cell vs. Closed-Cell Spray Foam
When people talk about spray foam, they’re usually referring to closed-cell foam. This is a dense material that blocks moisture, making it excellent for basement insulation and attic insulation. In fact, closed-cell spray foam can be applied to many areas of the homes without having to install an additional vapor barrier.
Open-cell foam weighs less, costs less, and can be installed more easily in tight spaces (when compared to closed-cell varieties) because it expands after spraying. With a lower R-value, it may not produce the same energy savings as closed-cell options, but it’s a great option for adding insulation in leaky areas.
