Air barriers significantly reduce random air leakage, conserving up to 40 percent of a building&#8217;s energy loss and improving indoor air quality, when combined with mechanical ventilation. Air barriers also extend the life of a building by minimizing the flow of airborne moisture that can breed condensation, mold growth and decay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h1>Introducing Icynene Classic Max<\/h1>\n<div>\n<p>LOW VOC SPRAY FOAM INSULATION BY ICYENNENEW!

That&#8217;s why it is important to select building products like Icynene\u00ae soft foam insulation and air barrier system, which was manufactured with health and well-being in mind. Icynene\u00ae contributes to a healthy indoor environment in three critical ways:<\/p>\n<p>1). Icynene\u00ae is 100% water-blown and does not emit harmful gases once cured. Icynene\u00ae contains no ozone-depleting substances and does not off-gas over time, unlike some conventional insulation that can deteriorate as time passes. Icynene maintains its efficiency with no loss of R-value to provide healthy indoor air (and energy savings) for its occupants today and for years to come. Selecting products that provide longevity, like Icynene\u00ae, reduces the impact on the environment because it eliminates the need for the installation of additional material in the future.<\/p>\n<p>2). Icynene creates a continuous air barrier in the walls, ceilings and floors, which minimizes the intrusion of outdoor allergens and pollutants. Icynene\u00ae helps buildings achieve U.S. Green Building Council&#8217;s Leadership in Energy &amp; Environmental Design (LEEDTM) credits.<\/p>\n<p>3) As an integrated insulation and air barrier, Icynene effectively minimizes air leakage and accompanying moisture (air leakage accounts for as much as 99% of moisture movement in a structure). So effective is Icynene at minimizing condensation, moisture build-up, and the growth of mold or mildew, the product is often specified for use in museums, art galleries, and libraries where condensation control is critical to preserving the integrity of valuable collections.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put, installing Icynene in your home or business is not just insulation, but a complete Insulation System. Batt and Blown In Fiber Insulation products offer an R-Value (R is an indication of heat conduction) benefit only. The thicker the application the higher the R-Value. The negative effects of these products are that they compress over time and they allow airflow, both of which reduce its R-Value and effectiveness as insulation. Therma Seal Insulation Systems creates an \u201cunvented attic\u201d assembly, which prohibits the intrusion of heat, humidity or pollen into the attic space. More importantly, the cool air you produce; which in the past has seeped through the conventional insulation and dispersed out into the environment, is now retained in the attic space. The result is a home, which cools quickly and then retains this temperature significantly longer. The benefits you gain by adding this system include air quality, sound absorption, and improved energy efficiency.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\n<!-- {\"type\":\"layout\",\"children\":[{\"type\":\"section\",\"props\":{\"style\":\"default\",\"width\":\"default\",\"vertical_align\":\"middle\",\"title_position\":\"top-left\",\"title_rotation\":\"left\",\"title_breakpoint\":\"xl\",\"image_position\":\"center-center\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"row\",\"children\":[{\"type\":\"column\",\"props\":{\"position_sticky_breakpoint\":\"m\",\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"media_overlay_gradient\":\"\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"headline\",\"props\":{\"title_element\":\"h1\",\"content\":\"Benefits of Insulation\",\"title_decoration\":\"line\",\"text_align\":\"center\"}}]}]}]},{\"type\":\"section\",\"props\":{\"style\":\"default\",\"width\":\"default\",\"vertical_align\":\"middle\",\"title_position\":\"top-left\",\"title_rotation\":\"left\",\"title_breakpoint\":\"xl\",\"image_position\":\"center-center\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"row\",\"props\":{\"layout\":\"1-2,1-2\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"column\",\"props\":{\"position_sticky_breakpoint\":\"m\",\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"media_overlay_gradient\":\"\",\"width_medium\":\"1-2\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"video\",\"props\":{\"video_controls\":true,\"margin\":\"small\",\"video\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/watch?v=4iRbfPSSmjk\",\"text_align\":\"center\",\"video_height\":\"800\"}}]},{\"type\":\"column\",\"props\":{\"position_sticky_breakpoint\":\"m\",\"image_position\":\"center-center\",\"media_overlay_gradient\":\"\",\"width_medium\":\"1-2\"},\"children\":[{\"type\":\"text\",\"props\":{\"margin\":\"default\",\"column_breakpoint\":\"m\",\"content\":\"\n\n<p>Many buildings constructed within the last decade have already experienced major failures due to water damage and air leakage across the building envelope that caused condensation and mold growth.
