Homeowners considering spray foam insulation don’t need to worry about the installation process when they choose MPI Foam. Our trained team makes it simple for Raleigh-area homeowners to upgrade their homes with new insulation.

 

Installation Process for Existing Homes

Step 1: Identify Areas of the Home

We start by reviewing which areas of the home will receive spray foam insulation and what preparation will be needed. Common installation locations include:

• Attics
• Crawl spaces
• Garages

 

Although we work efficiently and aim to keep disruptions to a minimum, we will need clear access to these spaces. Please make sure driveways, hallways, and stairwells are open so our team can move equipment safely.

 

Step 2: Clear the Space

As much as possible, we request all rooms to be free of items. This allows more space for our teams to work and keeps your items clean and free of spray foam!

 

Step 3: Identify Electrical Outlets

Our team will help identify all electrical outlets in the area receiving spray foam installation, but we ask that homeowners help note any that are hard to find. This is to ensure we properly secure each with spray foam while avoiding covering the outlet completely.

 

Step 4: Seal Air Leaks

Spray foam insulation naturally acts as an air barrier, sealing up all the nooks and crannies in spaces, but we ask that larger air leaks are addressed prior to spray foam installation. If you have a question about an area, don’t hesitate to ask your spray foam expert!

New Construction Homes

 

For new construction builds, please make sure all electrical work has been completed prior to insulation. Once we have spray foam in place, it will be more time-consuming and messier to break through the spray foam to add electrical outlets. Even more, we’ll have to go back in and seal the cracks around electrical outlets to ensure no air seals are unaccounted for. Your general contractor should be on top of this, but don’t worry—our guys will double-check the space needing spray foam insulation before we start installing.
