ENERGY EFFICIENT. Higher R-values than conventional insulation and a seamless air barrier reduce uncontrolled air leakage, resulting in lower energy costs.

DESIGN FLEXIBILITY. Adheres to the substrate, allowing for easy monolithic installation for greater structural strength and stability, and enhances resistance to water damage; expands to fill even irregularly shaped and hard to reach areas.

SUSTAINABLE AND HEALTHY. Reduces condensation, moisture and mold, provides a sound barrier to help block airborne noise, contains no ozone-depleting chemicals and may contribute up to 20 LEED credits.

LOWER CONSTRUCTION COSTS/VALUE ENGINEERING. Achieve insulation, air barrier, vapor retarder and thermal break all in one for reduced material costs; energy efficiency results in smaller HVAC system requirements.

LONG TERM VALUE. Customers today are concerned about their building’s integrity; spray foam helps a building withstand the tests of the elements and time.

Closed-cell, spray-in-place insulation retards both thermal and moisture transmission. As an ABAA Evaluated Material as part of an ABAA Evaluated Assembly, GacoOnePass is approved for use in air barrier systems. It is Appendix X approved for use without an additional ignition barrier and meets the requirement for a Class II vapor retarder at just 0.44”. A special mold and mildew inhibitor* provides important extra protection.

Closed Cell Insulation stops airflow into and out of your home and keeps dust and pollen out for a more comfortable environment. In most cases a separate vapor barrier is not necessary.

Closed Cell insulation is code-supported, warranted for the life of the home, and it will not settle, shrink or deteriorate. It will maintain its R-value and sound reduction qualities within close tolerance over the life of your home.

Closed Cell insulation high R-value per inch allows designers to reduce the depth of exterior walls and still obtain the desired level of energy efficiency. This means more living space in your home

GacoOnePass is UL GREENGUARD and GREENGUARD Gold certified.

Gaco Western Brand FireStop2 Open Cell Foam is a water-blown spray-applied system that cures to a distinctive orange colored semi-rigid low density foam. The cured product is dimensionally stable in all weather conditions and its insulating properties do not significantly diminish over time. It is safe for the environment, containing no CFC’s, HCFC’s, formaldehyde or ozone depleting chemicals. GacoFireStop2 is sustainable – it contains high bio-renewable content. GacoFireStop2 is a Class 1 rated foam. GacoFireStop2 meets the requirements of AC377 Appendix X for use in attic and crawl spaces without an additional ignition barrier. GacoFireStop2 is Class A (Class 1) fire rated and safe for the environment.

Lapolla Brand FOAM-LOK 400 is a breakthrough open-cell spray foam insulation technology that is installed in attics and crawl spaces in one step with no ignition barrier required. It is a great insulation for use in attics, cavity walls and other critical insulation areas. The professionally-installed spray applied material seals the structure, providing a continuous air barrier, offering exceptional performance in the reduction of heat transfer. These performance characteristics work to maintain indoor comfort and temperature, greatly reducing heating and cooling demands and the ongoing costs associated with them.

Cellulose insulation has been a tried and true method of insulating homes for decades. It is made from recycled newsprint and other recycled paper with one of the highest percentages of the postconsumer waste content of any insulation. It is treated with recognized safe fire retardants. Numerous tests have shown that cellulose insulation is better at preventing the spread of fire in abuilding than other insulation products. Its excellent sound insulating properties, its ability to provide an effective 1-hour fire rating, high R-value per inch, and industry-leading environmental properties, makes cellulose insulation a perfect choice for installation

Although insulation often goes unseen, it is a product that deserves some attention, as it can help your home or building become more comfortable and efficient.

Fiberglass is a type of fiber primarily composed of glass that is used in a wide variety of applications, and is predominantly employed as a residential and commercial thermal insulator. As an insulator, it slows the spread of heat, cold, and sound in homes. By trapping pockets of air, it keeps rooms warm in the winter and cool in the summer and thereby serves as a convenient method to increase energy efficiency. In homes, fiberglass insulation can be installed in various parts of the building envelope. It can bepink, yellow, white or green, depending on its manufacturer, and has a spongy feel.

Commonly found in blanket form, called batts, it is available in bags containing standard pre-cut lengths and widths. Batts are typically stapled into place. It also comes in bags as loose fill that can be blown into attic, wall and floor cavities. Most fiberglass batts are manufactured with a paper or foil backing that faces the direction of warmth. When installed correctly, it creates a continuous membrane that retards the passage of moisture and reduces the likelihood that fibrous particles will enter the living space. It is important that the backing always faces the warm side of the structure in which the insulation is installed.
