Building a new home? Spray foam insulation delivers energy efficiency, comfort, and long-term savings. Discover why more builders choose spray foam.

Planning a new home build? Choosing the right insulation is one of the most important decisions you'll make — not just for comfort, but for long-term savings and resale value. Here’s why spray foam is the top pick for modern residential construction:

Maximum Energy Efficiency

Spray foam creates a continuous thermal envelope with zero air leaks. Homeowners see lower heating and cooling bills from day one — a major selling point for energy-conscious buyers.

Moisture Barrier & Air Seal in One

Homes with spray foam are better protected against drafts, condensation, and mold. That means fewer headaches and lower maintenance over time.

Fits Any Design

Spray foam expands to fill every cavity, corner, and odd shape perfect for vaulted ceilings, custom builds, and basements where traditional batts fall short.

Long-Term Value

Unlike fiberglass, spray foam won't sag, compress, or lose R-value over time. It stays effective for decades — no settling, no replacements.

For Builders, Contractors & Homeowners
Whether you're designing your dream home or managing a subdivision, spray foam pays off in durability, energy efficiency, and resale value.

The Importance of Proper Attic Venting

By Martha Laverde • September 21, 2025

Attic insulation is only part of creating an efficient, healthy home. Just as critical is having the right amount of ventilation in your attic. Without proper venting, insulation cannot perform at its best, and the long-term health of your home can be at risk. Why Attic Ventilation Matters Attics are designed to breathe. Proper ventilation balances the air entering through soffit or eave vents with the air leaving through ridge or roof vents. This flow prevents trapped moisture and excessive heat buildup, both of which can cause costly problems. The Risks of Poor Ventilation Moisture Damage – Warm air from the home naturally rises into the attic. If it cannot escape, condensation forms, leading to mold, mildew, and potential wood rot. Reduced Insulation Performance – Moisture reduces the effectiveness of attic insulation, lowering R-value and increasing energy costs. Ice Dams – In winter, poor ventilation allows attic heat to melt roof snow unevenly, causing ice dams that damage shingles and gutters. Overheated Attics – In summer, trapped hot air drives up cooling costs and shortens the lifespan of roofing materials. How Ventilation and Insulation Work Together Spray foam and attic blow-in insulation are most effective when paired with a well-ventilated attic. Insulation keeps conditioned air inside the home, while venting ensures moisture and excess heat are released outside. The two systems work hand-in-hand to maintain comfort, efficiency, and durability. At Aires Spray Foam & Insulation , we assess not only insulation levels but also ventilation to ensure your attic performs the way it should. By addressing both, homeowners achieve better energy efficiency, improved indoor air quality, and long-lasting protection for their roof and attic. Adequate attic venting is not optional, it is essential. When combined with professional insulation services, proper ventilation ensures your home is comfortable, efficient, and protected year-round.
