What is SEALECTION 500?
The Spray Foam insulation solution that will make you forget your problems.
SEALECTION 500 insulation is an open-cell, low density spray foam insulation product that has
no ozone destroying gases (HFCs or HCFCs) or formaldehyde. It is environmentally
friendly and allows you to achieve an airtight seal. Building scientists have recognized
that air leakage has a tremendous impact on the R-value performance of homes and
buildings.
With SEALECTION 500, your new or retrofit building is permanently protected, sealed
off from wind, pollutants and airborne sound, and resistant to condensation-related
problems. The energy savings alone pay down your investment cost many times over.
Nothing else comes close - Spray Foam insulation It and Forget It!.
Timber Frame Construction
Timber frame construction presents a challenge when it comes to proper insulation.
SEALECTION 500 meets the challenge and offers additional benefits including ease
of installation, soundproofing, improved indoor air quality, elimination of moisture
problems and architectural design freedom. Look at the pros and cons of insulating
materials and their installation requirements, and you'll find that SEALECTION 500
has all of the benefits and none of the drawbacks.
As an expandable spray foam insulation, SEALECTION 500 is the easiest to install and the most
perfect fill for timber frame buildings. It helps to create a healthy environment.
It reduces maintenance costs by eliminating air infiltrated moisture problems while
dramatically lowering the size and operating costs of heating equipment. "Spray Foam
Insulation It and Forget It."
Features of Sealection 500:
Architecturally Friendly
By filling every crevice, SEALECTION 500 insulation offers greater architectural freedom in
building design. It solves insulation, sound and air infiltrated moisture problems
in buildings, while offering solutions for complex insulation applications for industrial
and commercial projects.
Air Barrier
SEALECTION 500 is an effective air barrier that eliminates the transfer of warm,
moist air through walls. By stopping that air movement, moisture cannot become trapped
inside the wall cavity creating an environment for the growth of mold and mildew. Spray Foam insulation It,Forget It!
Long Lasting
Once installed, it does not shrink, settle or disintegrate. Unlike most conventional
insulating materials, it maintains its efficiency with no loss of R-value over the
life of the building. Most importantly, it does not cause corrosion or rusting of
metal buildings.
Noise Reduction
SEALECTION 500 is an effective barrier to airborne sounds. Its superior fit makes
it an ideal sound proofing system, reducing airborne sound transfer through roof,
floor and walls, including home theatres. Outside noises such as road traffic, planes
and trains stay outside. Inside, there are far fewer complaints about next door,
next floor or plumbing wall noises.
Indoor Air Quality
SEALECTION 500 seals the building envelope against airborne pollutants. By sealing
out dust, allergens, odors and pollutants, SEALECTION 500 Insulation allows the air management
system to be designed so that the indoor air quality is healthier than outside air.
A SEALECTION 500 insulated environment is highly recommended for those suffering
from allergies, respiratory problems and chemical sensitivities.
Environmentally Friendly
SEALECTION 500 contains no ozone-destroying chemicals and its high efficiency enables
buildings to be heated or cooled with the least possible consumption of the natural
resources required to produce energy.
Reduces Moisture-Related Problems
By preventing condensation, SEALECTION 500 spray foam insulation eliminates sweating metal under the roofdeck
or airborne moisture inside walls, avoiding problems with mold and mildew. It creates
a comfortable draft-free, condensation-free environment in a single application.
In addition, the elimination of moisture-related problems such as staining and mold
can avoid substantial maintenance and repair costs.
Return On Investment
By reducing air leakage in a building to an absolute minimum, the size and cost
of HVAC equipment can be lowered. Energy savings are often as high as 50% when compared
with conventionally insulated buildings. High utility bills, Forget It.
