Spray Foam vs Fiberglass

Fiberglass versus Polyurethane foam Insulation

When it’s time to insulate a home, there are a couple of different options available. You can either decide to use fiberglass insulation or polyurethane foam for insulation.

Fiberglass insulation can be used in most places. With this type of insulation, what you get is what you see. You take the fiberglass insulation and use it where you need it. This type of insulation doesn’t expand over time. So it’s important to use enough insulation for the project at hand. The fiberglass insulation has to be put up by hand, since it’s not a spray in or foam type of insulation, which does take up more time. There is a potential that the fiberglass particles will float in the air throughout the heating system into the home.
