How does Lake San Marcos's climate affect this service?
Lake San Marcos is a private golf-and-lake community within greater San Marcos. Original 1970s-80s attic insulation is settled and underperforming across most of the community, with HOA-coordinated projects driving the upgrade cycle on common-area buildings and individual residences alike.. Inland spray foam shows up on bonus rooms over garages and conditioned-attic conversions in Escondido and Vista.
What's the difference between open- and closed-cell foam?
Open-cell is softer, lower R per inch (about 3.7), vapor permeable, and better at sound dampening. Closed-cell is denser, higher R per inch (about 6.5), structural, and a vapor retarder. Closed-cell costs more but does more in less space, we use it on rim joists, crawlspaces, and unvented roof decks.
Is spray foam safe?
Once cured, yes. During application the chemicals off-gas and the area must be vacated and ventilated for the cure window, usually 24 hours for residential. We follow SPFA guidelines and the manufacturer's re-entry time. We don't take shortcuts on this.
