5 biggest myths about SPF insulation – #2: SPF insulation is hard to install.
Have you tried installing commercial insulation or commercial roofing panels? Fiberglass insulation is difficult to maneuver and cut to fit while also being damaging to your health. Commercial roof panels require flashing, clips, fasteners, and sometimes tin snips to fit. Installing SPF insulation and SPF commercial roofing is as easy as point and spray.
Spray Polyurethane Foam, or SPF insulation can be used in a variety of applications, whether it’s for interior walls, commercial roofing, or ditch breaks. SPF insulation is created from two separate liquid compounds: isocyanate and polyol fiber. The isocyanate and polyol fiber arrive on-site in large barrels that can be easily repositioned and offloaded when the job is complete. When the insulation is ready to be installed, the two compounds are equally sent through a heat-inducing proportion dispenser into a spray applicator. At that point, all the installer needs to do is literally point and spray the insulation into place.
When the mixed compound is released, the insulation adheres to virtually any surface and quickly expands up to thirty times its liquid density.

The incredible flexibility of SPF’s installation process makes it the easiest insulation and commercial roofing solution available today. There is limited need for prep work with SPF forming a supportive bond on any existing commercial roof material, including built-up tar roofs (BURs).
