A spray polyurethane foam roof system decreases energy expenses, contributes to LEED and Energy Star certification, provides a heat, moisture and air barrier is easy to maintain and can last for years by renewing the roof’s protective coating. Building owners realize significant reductions in energy expenses for heating and cooling, as well as reduced maintenance costs.
The benefits of installing a spray polyurethane foam (SPF) roofing system, rather than another roof type, are numerous in terms of installation, performance, cost, and longevity.
- Restoration Option - When your SPF roof is in good shape but needs to be improved, you can have a silicone restoration membrane installed to new the life of your residential and commercial roof.
- Energy Efficient - The energy efficiency and roof insulation properties of a closed-cell spray polyurethane foam roof contribute to significant energy savings throughout the life of a home or building. In fact, studies show that the average payback period for a new foam roof can be reached in as little as five years.
- Durability - The durability of SPF surpasses traditional roofing systems. The foam material can expand and contract with the building in accordance with outside temperatures, decreasing the likelihood of cracks and splitting.
- Seamless & Waterproof - Since the SPF mixture is applied as a liquid, it can fill gaps, seams, and cracks in the existing roof and substrate. The continuous solid surface does not require joints or seams, removing the most vulnerable area for leaking.
- Environmentally Friendly - There are a variety of eco-friendly roofing products, which feature zero ozone depletion potential (ODP), ultra-low global warming potential (GWP) and solvent-free silicone coatings.
Overall spray foam is a great roofing system that works well on flat residential and commercial applications.
