Closed Cell

Closed cell spray foam insulation provides the benefits of both insulation and an air barrier creating the ultimate building envelope performance.  Safe, eco-friendly and energy efficient, closed cell spray foam insulation is a breakthrough technology in moisture and thermal management.

Closed cell rigid foam provides more than R-value alone.  It effectively combats air infiltration to reduce energy loss and builds a healthier, energy-saving building envelope.

In addition to being a great air barrier, closed cell spray foam insulation also is a vapor retarder.  Summit Green Solutions installs closed cell spray foam in applications where a vapor barrier is needed such as crawl space under the home and as a roofing membrane in commerical buildings.  In crawl spaces, closed cell spray foam is either installed in the perimeter walls as part of a cleam, insulated sealed crawl system or directly to the underside of the floor joist.  In both applications, closed cell spray foam insulates the floor of the home while eliminating the mositure drive from entering the living space of the home.
