Need insulation for an attic floor or interior wall where moisture isn't the main concern? Open-cell foam usually makes more sense than closed-cell, and it costs less.

Open-cell spray foam insulation expands to fill cavities fully, dampens sound between rooms, and runs cheaper per board foot than closed-cell. Boise Spray Foam Insulation Pros uses it on attic floors, interior walls, and other dry, low-moisture areas across Boise homes.

FAQs

Open-Cell Spray Foam Insulation FAQs

What's the difference between open-cell and closed-cell for an attic?

Open-cell is lighter, costs less, and works well on attic floors. Closed-cell handles moisture better, which matters more on a roof deck.

Is spray foam insulation worth the cost in Idaho's climate?

For a climate with cold winters and hot summers, sealing air leaks with foam usually pays off in lower heating and cooling bills over time. Open-cell is often the budget-friendly entry point for interior applications.

Where shouldn't open-cell foam be used?

Avoid it in crawlspaces, basements, or any area with regular moisture exposure. Closed-cell is the better call in those spots.

What's the R-value per inch for open-cell foam?

Open-cell typically runs around R-3.5 to R-3.7 per inch, lower than closed-cell but still a solid improvement over old batt insulation.

How much does open-cell spray foam cost per square foot?

Usually $0.90 to $1.50 per square foot installed, making it one of the more affordable insulation upgrades available.
