Poor Spray Foam Insulation

When it comes to your home's insulation, the choices you make can have a significant impact on both your health and the structural integrity of your property. At Lofteaze, we've seen firsthand the hidden dangers lurking behind certain insulation options, particularly spray foam insulation. In this article, we'll delve into the truth about spray foam insulation and why it's crucial to remove it safely.


Unveiling the Hazards

Spray foam insulation has gained popularity for its ability to create a tight seal and improve energy efficiency. However, what many homeowners don't realise is that spray foam can pose serious health risks. The chemicals used in spray foam, such as isocyanates, can trigger respiratory issues, skin irritation, and even long-term health problems with prolonged exposure. Additionally, if not installed correctly, spray foam insulation can lead to moisture buildup and structural damage within your home.


Understanding the Risks of Removal

Removing spray foam insulation requires careful consideration and expertise. The process can release harmful particles into the air, putting both homeowners and professionals at risk of exposure. Improper removal techniques can exacerbate these risks and lead to further damage to your property. That's why it's essential to trust the job to experienced professionals like Lofteaze.
