Spray Foam Insulation

Few upgrades change how a home feels as quickly as spray foam insulation. Applied as a liquid, it expands on contact to fill every gap and crack. Turning leaky framing into a continuous air barrier that boosts energy efficiency, comfort, and indoor air quality.

Iron Hive Insulation works with both open-cell and closed-cell formulations, and we'll recommend the one that fits your home or building. Not the other way around.

Open-Cell vs Closed-Cell Spray Foam

Open-Cell Spray Foam

Open-cell spray foam is a lighter, flexible insulation that expands rapidly to fill wall cavities and hard-to-reach areas. It provides excellent air sealing and sound reduction.

What open-cell delivers:

  • Strong air sealing
  • Sound dampening
  • Cost-effective insulation
  • Great for attics and interior walls

Closed-Cell Spray Foam

Closed-cell spray foam is denser and more rigid, providing a higher insulation value per inch. It also acts as a moisture barrier and adds structural strength.

Where closed-cell stands out:

  • Higher R-value insulation
  • Moisture resistance
  • Increased structural strength
  • Ideal for crawl spaces, exterior walls, and commercial applications

Where We Install Spray Foam

From attics to metal buildings, spray foam works almost anywhere a home or building leaks air:

Attics
Walls
Crawl spaces
Basements
Rim joists
New construction framing
Metal buildings and commercial spaces

Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation

Lower energy bills
More consistent temperatures room to room
Air sealing that reduces drafts
Helps prevent moisture and mold
Decades of performance without sagging or settling
Reduces outside noise

Because spray foam seals small cracks and gaps that other insulation cannot reach, it helps create a more efficient and controlled indoor environment.
