Benedict Wallis • April 19, 2023

Should you replace old spray foam?

When it comes to insulating your home, it’s important to ensure that you’re using the most effective and efficient insulation material possible. While spray foam insulation has been a popular choice for over 30 years, it may be time to consider re-laying new insulation to replace old spray foam insulation. In this blog, we’ll explore the reasons why re-laying new insulation may be the right choice for your home.

Improved Insulation Performance

As spray foam insulation ages, it can begin to degrade and lose its effectiveness. This means that it may not be providing the level of insulation performance that your home requires. By relaying new insulation, you can ensure that your home is properly insulated, keeping it warm in the winter and cool in the summer.


Energy Savings

Old spray foam insulation may be causing your energy bills to skyrocket. If the insulation is no longer performing effectively, it may be allowing heat to escape from your home in the winter and preventing cool air from circulating in the summer. By relaying new insulation, you can improve your home’s energy efficiency and save money on your energy bills.


Health Concerns

Old spray foam insulation may also pose health concerns. Over time, the insulation can break down and release potentially harmful chemicals into your home’s air. This can lead to respiratory issues, asthma, and other health problems. Re-laying new insulation can help eliminate these health risks and provide a safer and healthier environment for you and your family.


Environmentally Friendly

By relaying new insulation, you can also make a positive impact on the environment. Old spray foam insulation can’t be recycled and may end up in landfills, contributing to environmental pollution. New insulation, on the other hand, can be made from sustainable materials and can be recycled at the end of its useful life.


While spray foam insulation may have been an effective insulation solution in the past, re-laying new insulation can provide improved insulation performance, energy savings, and health benefits. Additionally, it’s an environmentally friendly choice that can make a positive impact on the planet. Consider upgrading your home’s insulation to ensure that it’s performing at its best and providing a safe and comfortable living environment for you and your family.
