Due to its excellent adhesion properties, HandiFoam® fire resistant spray foam provides excellent insulation by creating a continuous air barrier that completes the building envelope. This helps improve indoor air quality, lowers heating and cooling costs, and drastically reduces energy consumption. Our closed cell spray foam kits assists in attaining ENERGY STAR™ rating and/or LEED credits.

Installation Tips:
-
Temperature: Spray foam products are temperature sensitive. You can spray this kit in colder outdoor temperatures, the key is to keep the core temperature of the tanks within the proper range of 75-85°F.
-
Change Nozzles: It is important to change the nozzle after you stop spraying for more then 30 seconds. Failure to change nozzles may result in damage to the spray gun.
-
Reuse Nozzles: It is possible to clean and reuse a nozzle 2-3 times. As soon as you are done spraying, remove the nozzle and drop it in a can of acetone. You can also use our Handi-Cleaner to clean out uncured foam.
-
Safety Considerations: Our Safety Kit includes a tyvek suit with hood, respirator, goggles, and 2 pairs of nitrile gloves.
-
Application: Use a slow, steady, and smooth motion to spray a continuous layer when applying the foam. Spray what appears to be just under a 1/4" thickness and it will expand and cure to roughly 1 inch. Apply additional layers until desired thickness is achieved, allowing at least 10 minutes between layers.
-
Clean Up: You can clean up uncured foam with acetone or Handi-Cleaner. Once foam is fully cured, you will have to remove it by mechanical means.
