Gap Filling using PU Foam Spray

Insulating foam sealants or 'foam in a can' are a type of spray polyurethane foam product which are readily available with us. These products are intended for use in application for air sealing or adhering. Their small volume, ease of use, and portability make them ideal for smaller projects, such as sealing gaps and crevices.

General Tips and Safety before using Foam Spray
  • Cover the floor with drop cloth or newspaper
  • Foam insulation is flammable during dispensing. Remove sources of ignition, including pilot lights, until spray foam hardens completely (approximately eight hours)
  • Wear safety glasses, or goggles, and gloves when spraying the foam
  • Mist the area with water before and after foaming to speed up curing
  • If you overfill an area, trim the excess with a serrated blade or utility knife once it has fully cured
  • Fill the opening less than 50% full when applying to allow for expansion of the foam. Overfilling causes wasted product and messy cleanup
  • If the foam in the straw applicator hardens, trim near the area where the foam has hardened and continue application

Quick Instructions for use in Plumbing
Plumbing pipe penetrations may allow bugs and unwanted air into the living space.
  1. Check for holes under sinks where the pipes enter from the floor or wall in all rooms that have running water (kitchen, bathroom, utility room and laundry room).
  2. Cover the area before foaming.
  3. Seal around the pipes at the wall or floor entrance.



Window and Door Framing

Installing new windows and doors can significantly improve a home’s energy efficiency. During installation, make sure to fill the gaps around the window or door frame and the rough opening.
  1. Ensure that the window / door and frame surfaces are clean.
  2. Fill the void between the window / door and the rough opening.
  3. Apply foam in a continuous bead, with no voids or breaks, to achieve an effective seal.
  4. For window applications, apply foam around all four sides. For door applications, apply foam around the top and sides only.
