We use the newest HFO blowing agent (the component that makes spray foam expand). It has a zero ozone depletion potential and a low global warming potential. Choosing spray foam ensures you meet or exceed the newest Ontario Building Codes and increases the energy efficiency of your home.
In most cases, open wall cavities are needed to install spray foam insulation into the walls of your home. This makes new construction and major renovation projects ideal opportunities to install spray foam for its air sealing benefit. In areas that are traditionally left open or have no cavities, such as a basement, crawlspace or attic, spray foam is always an option worth considering.
The blowing agent in spray foam makes it expand up to 30 times its original volume. This allows it to fill and expand in any gaps and crevices it enters. This duality means you can easily insulate and air seal your basement or crawlspace walls and headers in a single project. We can also install spray foam to crawlspaces beneath stationary mobile homes.
Spray polyurethane foam insulation is unique from other types of insulation. It is a liquid that is produced on site by combining isocyanate and resin, and is sprayed directly onto the surface you are insulating. When using 2lb spray foam, the result is a seamless insulation and air sealing solution that also provides an air and vapour barrier. When using 1/2lb spray foam, your home still benefits from a seamless coat of insulation.
At Great Northern Insulation, we seek out and install some of the most sustainable insulation products available. We also install cellulose insulation that is locally manufactured using mostly recycled paper. Regardless of the insulation product you choose, insulation will help increase the energy efficiency of your home and reduce your carbon footprint.

Whether your home has an attached or detached garage, adding or replacing insulation can make the space more comfortable, energy efficient, and enjoyable all year long. This can be achieved by installing spray foam insulation to the garage walls as it provides an air and vapour barrier which will help achieve maximum garage performance. Alternatively, fibreglass batts can also be added to unfinished garage walls. Dense-pack insulation is also be an option for garage insulation in certain circumstances. If your garage has an attic space, there are a number of insulation options as well.

Planning your garage insulation project requires an experienced and professional eye to thoroughly inspect the space to provide the best solution. Your insulation plan will detail the recommended type of insulation for your space. Your insulation plan may include a seamless application of spray foam, as it provides superior insulative value and the benefits of an air and vapour barrier to achieve optimal energy efficiency performance and moisture control.
Insulation plays a key role in the overall functionality of a properly designed space. Improved insulation in an attached garage can help keep adjacent rooms, such as a bonus room or bedroom safer, more comfortable and consistent in temperature. Spray foam offers the benefit of being an air barrier, which can help reduce the risk of exhaust fumes making their way into the home.
In a detached garage, insulation, alongside proper HVAC equipment, provides a comfortable and efficient environment so you can enjoy all the activities a garage space has to offer. Regardless of what you use a garage space for, the goal of properly installed insulation and air sealing is to keep the space dry, comfortable and odour-free.
