Benefits of Floor Insulation
Insulating your floors offers year-round performance improvements. Here's what you can expect:
● Improved indoor temperature consistency
● Energy savings through reduced heating and cooling needs
● Enhanced comfort—especially in winter
● Sound dampening between floors and rooms
● Moisture and mould resistance with the right materials
● Improved indoor air quality with reduced drafts
● Increased property value through energy-efficient upgrades
No matter the size of your space, floor insulation is one of the most cost-effective upgrades you can make.
Why Insulate Your Floors?
Insulating your floors goes far beyond simple comfort—it's about performance, durability, and sustainability.
● Prevents heat loss through floors, especially in basements or over garages
● Blocks unwanted noise between levels of a home
● Reduces wear on HVAC systems due to more stable temperatures
● Creates healthier environments by minimizing moisture intrusion
● Makes homes more eco-friendly and energy-efficient
● Prepares your home to meet modern building codes and energy standards
● Helps reduce long-term maintenance and heating costs
With Alberta's variable climate, a well-insulated floor makes every season more comfortable and efficient.
Safety Insulation FAQs
What are the different kinds of spray foam available?
There are two main types of spray foam insulation: open-cell and closed-cell.
Open-cell insulation is comprised of cells that are not completed encapsulated and intentionally left open creating a more flexible material. It is a good noise reduction option, and when correctly placed, open-cell spray foam insulation outperforms all other types of insulation. Compared to traditional insulation, open-cell foam insulation is a great low-cost alternative with better energy efficiency. It further provides excellent thermal comfort and indoor air quality while helping to decrease the danger of moisture issues. Hence, open-cell commercial spray foam insulation is the sound choice if you’re looking for a budget-friendly insulation solution.
Closed-cell insulation has enclosed cells that are smaller and more dense than open-cell insulation. This insulation is more ridged and is great for creating a water vapour barrier preventing moisture and humidity from passing through. Closed-cell spray foam insulation also has a higher R-value than open-cell insulation.What exactly does insulation R-Value mean?
Insulation performance is measured in units called R-values. This is a rating of how well the insulation will prevent heat from passing through the material. When reading an R-value rating, it is per inch of the insulation thickness. So if a material has an R-value of 5, installing 3 inches of the product will result in an R-value of 15 for the insulated area. Insulation ratings vary greatly based on the material, it’s thickness, and density.
Can spray foam be installed between wall studs without removing interior sheathing?
In most cases, you’ll need to remove interior or exterior sheathing before applying spray foam. Trying to add spray foam between wall studs through small access holes can result in bowed-out walls and other structural damage.
Why should I invest in spray foam insulation?
Choosing to invest in spray foam insulation for your property is a great decision because it is long lasting, provides superior levels of insulation, and can provide many additional benefits. Spray foam insulation creates an airtight, moisture resistant barrier with the highest R-value of any insulation products available on the market. Spray foam can reduce your heating expenses by 50% depending on your property structure and requires no maintenance when installed properly. Spray foam products can also offer soundproofing, fireproofing, and structural benefits.
