Douget&#8217;s Spray On Spray Foam Insulation LLC explains what separates the two and why more people may want to take a closer look at spray foam.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Fiberglass has been around for decades, and there&#8217;s a reason it&#8217;s still widely used. It slows down heat transfer and, when installed correctly, can do a good job insulating a building. You&#8217;ll typically find it in batts, rolls, or loose-fill insulation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Spray foam does more than that. It&#8217;s applied as a liquid and quickly expands, allowing it to get into cracks, gaps, and tight spaces that can be difficult to seal with traditional insulation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">That&#8217;s where the biggest difference comes in. Fiberglass helps slow heat transfer, but it doesn&#8217;t necessarily stop air from moving through small gaps around a building. Spray foam helps insulate while sealing those gaps at the same time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&#8220;Both types of insulation have been used successfully for a long time, but spray foam gives you that added air seal,&#8221; said Joel Douget. &#8220;You&#8217;re filling those little cracks and gaps that traditional insulation may not seal, and that can make a real difference in how comfortable the building feels.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In Texas, that&#8217;s worth paying attention to. When it&#8217;s hot outside and the AC is running, you don&#8217;t want cooled air finding its way out through cracks and gaps. A tighter building can help keep temperatures more consistent and make it easier to stay comfortable.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Based in Madisonville, Douget&#8217;s provides spray foam insulation services for residential and commercial properties throughout Madisonville and surrounding Texas communities.
