  2. CIA Since 1979 Open Cell & Closed Cell Spray Foam Insulation What Insulation Can Be, but Isn’t?

  3. Our Presentation Today Building “AIR TIGHT” Vs: “VENTED”

  4. AIR TIGHT BUILDING Will save you $ Money on HVAC Sizing and Energy $ Costs Barndominiums Strip Centers Warehouses Storage Barns/Garage Homes Duplexes Apartments Condominiums Barndominiums Whether you are building New: Residential Commercial Pre-Engineered Metal Retail Centers High Rise Office Medical Offices Hospitals Senior Living

  5. What is “THE ECONOMIC THICKNESS OF THERMAL INSULATION” ? THE “R” VALUETHE INSULATIONS’ ABILITY TO RESIST HEAT TRANSFER • ASTM C-518-02 Q= A x ∆T R This equation is used to calculate the benefit of increasing the thickness of any Type of insulation as long as there is no air movement (convective heat transfer) through the insulation. “Aiir Tight Expert” AIR BARRIERS ECONOMIC THICKNESS OF THERMAL INSULATION

  6. DEMONSTRATION AIR DISPLAY R-13 FIBERGLASS SPRAYED FOAM CELLULOSE Which insulation is air tight? How much “R” value does fiberglass or cellulose provide with air movment?

  7. What is the Economic Thickness of Insulation 1” = R-3.6 2” = R-7.2 3” = R-10.8 4” = R-14.4 5” = R-18 8” = R- 30 12” = R-43 When is thickness not $Cents-able?

  8. The MANUAL JIs the formula is used to size the HVAC System The data for each house is inputted: • Climate zone • Orientation-to the direction of the SUN light • Number of floors and conditioned square footage • Number of bedrooms • Number of corners • Number of windows & Doors-Holes-square footage • Shading • ACH Air infiltration rate: Default is 0.67 per Hour • Spray Foam ACH is: <0.10

  9. MANUAL JThis formula is used to size the HVAC System The following rule of thumb may be applied: Total SF/TONS • For conventional insulation: 300 to 600 square feet per ton • For Spray Foam Insulation: 800 to 1,200 square feet per ton • Up to 50% reduction in HVAC Tonnage • A direct cost savings in equipment • Up to 50% reduction in Energy Usage • A monthly savings

  10. ADVANTAGES OF INSULATING WITH SPRAY FOAM INSULATION • Air Tightness: Spray Foam Insulation expands and fills the complete cavity, all cracks, and gaps; it fills in behind electrical boxes, and encapsulates plumbing pipes, and wiring. • Air Tightness: is more energy efficient because when there is no air movement 100% of the insulation R Value in retained. • Air Tightness: reduces HVAC sizing up to 50%- 800 to 1,200 square feet per ton is typical • Air Tightness: reduces monthly energy usage by as much as 50% • Air Tightness: is a comfortable home, free of drafts, cold or hot spots • Air Tightness: is a quieter home • Air Tightness: is a healthier home-by reducing air infiltration, in combination with a filtered fresh air ventilating system, indoor air quality is superior.

  11. TO RECEIVE ANY DIRECT COST SAVINGSTO HELP IN YOUR COST PAY BACK • YOU MUST DECIDE NOW! • To build AIR TIGHT • To make the design changes • To frame the house to be air tight • To select and install; • Right sized HVAC System • The proper Furnace, Water Heaters, Fireplace & Exhaust fans-with Timer Switches.
