Unlike spray foam insulation that is sprayed into open wall cavities (mostly in new construction), injection foam insulation consists of drilling numerous holes into the existing wall covering of a structure and filling the wall cavity with a low pressure expanding, or pre-expanded foam. This application and installation process can be done from the either the interior or the exterior of the home, although the exterior seems to be the more popular choice.
The holes are then sealed with a plug and painted to match the existing sheathing or facade. If the building has aluminum or vinyl siding, the siding is removed, then re-installed after the installation.
Selection PIP is injected as a liquid which flows through the cavity and slowly expands in place; there it can be a very effective option for existing wall applications.
The ability to seal every crack and crevice makes Selection PIP the product of choice for homeowners who chose high-performance wall insulation with having to remove interior or exterior surfaces.
Injection foam insulation can be used insulate almost any type of structure in your home or building, including:
- Brick
- Stucco
- Stone
- Siding
- Shingle
