Polyurethane Foam Roofing

Polyurethane Foam Roofing for Commercial Roof Projects

Polyurethane Spray Foam Roofing Systems provide many benefits to building owners. The two most prominent benefits are waterproofing/leak prevention and insulation value. Many additional benefits also exist such as superior compressive strength, lightweight, self-flashing, durable, and long-lasting.

Benefits of Spray Polyurethane Foam Roof Systems:

  • Leak-free monolithic seal over your entire roof deck
  • Self-flashing
  • High insulation value / Rapid payback with energy savings
  • Strong adhesion and wind uplift resistance
  • Weather-resistant
  • Lightweight and high strength
  • UL and FM approved systems

Sprayed Polyurethane Foam is applied as a liquid using plural-component spray equipment to fill cracks and crevices. It then expands approximately 30 times its original liquid volume to form a hard, closed-cell monolithic roof surface. The Polyurethane Foam dries within seconds after applied to the roof surface. Its expansion results in a weather-tight roofing membrane that is fully adhered to the substrate. Because of polyurethane’s lightweight properties, it adds little additional loads to the structure and is often used in remedial applications. Polyurethane Foam has a history of more than 35 years as a maintainable roofing medium. Polyurethane Foam adds excellent insulation value to the structure and utility bills can reflect the difference.

Protective Coatings For Spray Polyurethane Foam Roofing

Once the SPF has been applied to the proper thickness and finish specifications, a protective layer of elastomeric coating is applied. This protective layer produces a durable weather-resistant surface and that can be walked on for normal maintenance.

Energy Star™ Cool Roofs ProgramPolyurethane Foam Roofing - Fonda Rooftop

ENERGY STAR qualified roof coating products reduce the amount of air conditioning needed in buildings and can reduce energy bills by up to 50%. The Cool Roof Program defines certain standards for reflectivity, and maintenance of reflectivity, in roof coating systems. These light-colored roof coatings reflect the sun’s heat and UV rays and can lower the temperature of the roof by up to 100 degrees.

Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation

There is no better home insulating material that can seal your home from air and moisture intrusion, save on costly utility bills, strengthen your home, and protect your family’s health from dangerous mold than Spray Foam insulation.

Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation:

  • Stops air and moisture infiltration
  • Makes your home more comfortable
  • Saves on energy costs
  • Adds strength to the building structure
  • It is permanent and will not sag
  • Keeps dust and pollen out
  • Reduces capacity requirements, maintenance and wear of HVAC equipment

Spray Foam Insulation Redefines Traditional Construction Methods and Benefits Modern Building Sciences and Energy Efficient Green Building Initiatives

Read all about Stone Roofing’s experience and how spray foam used in the Building Envelope outperforms fiberglass insulation, becomes a superior air barrier, and defies traditional, and perhaps, outdated building practices of attic and crawl space ventilation.

SPF Saves You Money and Pays for Itself

SPF home insulation saves on energy costs and lowers utility bills. SPF is used to seal the entire “building envelope” of your home to prevent air and moisture infiltration. The US Department of Energy (DOE) studies show that 40% of your home’s energy is lost due to air infiltration. This air infiltrates the home in the form of drafts through walls sockets, windows, and doorways.

Oftentimes no expensive building wrap or additional vapor protection is required during construction when using SPF, saving money yet again.

High R-Value

Sprayed polyurethane foam has an aged R-value of approximately 6.0 per 1-inch thickness (depending on the particular formulation and application, higher values have been achieved), enabling it to provide more thermal resistance with less material than any other type of commercial insulation material. Polyurethane Spray Foam Roofing systems are frequently used to insulate and protect a wide variety of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.

The cost of an SPF roof or insulation system can often be recovered in less than 5 years, simply through energy savings alone.

Polyurethane Foam Roofing Prevents Air, Moisture, and Gas Infiltration

Studies have shown that as much as 40% of a building’s total energy loss is due to air infiltration. Traditional fiberglass insulation is only stapled, or placed into the wall cavities and does not seal the stud and wall cavities from end to end, or top to bottom. Air infiltration can pass through these gaps, making it far less efficient than SPF. SPF not only adheres to, but forms to the walls and floors to create a tight seal and insulating barrier that stops this air leakage. SPF also boasts the highest R-value per inch than any other commercial material, (upwards of R-7.0, compared with Fiberglass at R-3.5) making your home more comfortable and less expensive to heat in the winter, and cool in the summer.

Since SPF acts as an air barrier, it also helps to reduce moisture infiltration, which is a source of dangerous mold and mildew growth in the home and can cause severe health problems to its occupants. So save your family and save money at the same time with SPF home insulation systems. Moisture infiltration can also cause structural damage to your home or building.

Helps Reduce Moisture and Mold

Molds produce tiny spores to reproduce. Mold spores waft through the indoor and outdoor air continually. When mold spores land on a damp spot indoors, they may begin growing and digesting whatever they are growing on in order to survive. There are molds that can grow on wood, paper, carpet, and foods. When excessive moisture or water accumulates indoors, mold growth will often occur, particularly if the moisture problem remains undiscovered or un-addressed. There is no practical way to eliminate all mold and mold spores in the indoor environment; the way to control indoor mold growth is to control moisture. SPF insulation is the key.

Enhances Overall Building Stability

Since SPF is seamless and monolithic, foam sprayed into the walls enhances overall building stability and reduces “rack and sheer”.

Deadens Sound Travel and Noise

SPF also reduces airborne sound making the home acoustically tighter and more private from room to room.
