Groton's Leading Spray Foam Insulation Contractor
Spray foam insulation is the best choice for insulation if you’re looking to increase your comfort & decrease your energy bills. Spray foam insulation is truly the best option for home insulation and here are a few reasons why. Spray Foam Insulation provides an air barrier due to its ability to fill gaps and cracks. It is also great at staying in the hard to reach areas because of its super-adhesive qualities. Spray foam insulation is also waterproof, unlike fiberglass and cellulose insulation. Water will not be able to pass through the foam which makes it an extremely durable and long-lasting product. Lastly, spray foam insulation is foolproof. Spray foam is sprayed as a liquid and then expands and hardens to fill voids and gaps. There is never any chance for an area to be missed or bypassed. Once cured, spray foam insulation will stay in place for decades to come and will never shift or settle like fiberglass. To ensure your home has the best insulation available and your energy bills are low, switch to spray foam insulation today!
Benefits of Spray Foam Insulation Include:
- Spray foam works in all areas of the home
- Has a greater R-value
- Acts as an air sealant
- Is waterproof
- Leaves no gaps

This homeowner in Groton, CT called us out to their home to help them update the insulation in their home. We sent out our Building Science Specialist to conduct our Free Home Energy Evaluation. They discovered there was very old, inefficient insulation in their attic and crawlspace! They also discovered mold! Mold can be very dangerous. It is harmful to have in your home, especially for pets, young children, and older people.
Since attics are vented, we should think of them thermally as outside in the winter. In the summer, because of the suns radiant heat, attics reach a much higher temperature in their attic, higher than 130º ! Knowing this, we need to keep a boundary from the attic to our living space, so that air that you pay to heat and cool does not travel up into the attic, and get lost! To reduce overall air leakage, the attic is the main priority because warm air will rise to the top of the home and fine any and all air holes to leak out of. This resulted in overall drafty rooms, and high heating/cooling bills.
We knew the right treatments to help this homeowner become efficient in their homes!
First, we attacked the attic. We spray our Mold-X Mold Killer in the attic on any and all areas, nooks, and crannies. This will get rid of the mold and make sure new mold spores do not start growing. Now we are able to air seal, and insulate!
We first seal up all top and end plates with foam to make sure there is no air able to escape, and so that the insulation is not trying to work all on its own. Insulation needs to be paired with proper air sealing, otherwise you are burring air leaks with just insulation! Next, we blow in our TruSoft Cellulose insulation. This fills in all cracks, gaps, and voids where air could escape through!
Now we can get to the crawlspace! We started off by clearing out this old insulation. We install our SilverGlo graphite infused foam board onto the walls to insulate the crawlspace to keep heat in during the winter. We then got to work on the dirt floor of the crawlspace. We laid down our dimpled drainage to create an airspace and thermal break. Then we put down our TerraBlock floor insulation, and finalize our sealing off the crawlspace with our vapor barrier liner to keep moisture from getting into the crawlspace and creating any mold issues. Finally, we seal off the rim joist, otherwise know as the perimeter of the floor framing of the house, to stop cold air from creeping in with spray foam insulation.
Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solution, this home is now healthier, more comfortable, and energy efficient!
