Thermal Comfort Incorporated is a licensed installer of The Icynene Insulation Systemâ
What is Icyneneâ?Icyneneâ is a spray-in-place, soft foam insulation system. Sprayed on as a liquid, Icyneneâ expands to over 100 times its initial volume within seconds to completely insulate and air seal a building in one step. Healthier Icyneneâ uses water as the blowing agent in the foam. There are no CFC’s, HCFC’s, formaldehyde, or other volatile organic chemicals that can off gas into the home over time. Icyneneâ seals allergens, dust and pollutants out of the home and when combined with proper mechanical ventilation, will dramatically improve the quality of indoor air. In fact, Icyneneâ is the only insulation material certified by the Envirodesic Certification Program™ for healthier indoor air quality. Because Icyneneâ does such a superior job of air sealing a home, the potential for condensation to form in exterior walls and ceilings is minimized, helping to prevent the occurrence of mold and mildew. Quieter Icyneneâ does an excellent job of sealing airborne noises, such as traffic, out of a home. It is also very effective when used in interior walls or between floors to dampen airborne sound. Common application areas include insulation around bathrooms and home theater rooms. More Energy Efficient Approximately 30%-40% of a home’s monthly energy bill can be directly attributed to air leakage. Icyneneâ completely seals the building envelope to stop this air leakage from occurring, while at the same time providing excellent thermal resistance. In fact, Icyneneâ can provide energy savings of up to 50% versus other types of insulation materials. click
