Agricultural Spray Foam Insulation

Premier Agricultural Spray Foam Insulation Services in Mattoon, IL

Agricultural spray foam insulation is a revolutionary investment for farmers and livestock operators who are concerned about keeping their animals and equipment safe from the extreme temperature swings of Central Illinois. At Insulation Service, we deal with the professional installation of high-performance spray foam to fit the rigorous application of farming conditions, such as livestock barns and poultry houses, as well as pole buildings and grain storage facilities. This growing foam forms a smooth barrier with no air that seeps in and out. It stabilizes the temperatures of the interior, relieves animals of stress in the summer heat, as well as winter cold, and it saves money. There is no need to install an insulation material that may sag, settle, or be contaminated after some time, unlike traditional insulation materials. Spray foam attaches directly to your current structures and does not lose performance over decades. We are proud to serve the farmers and other agricultural operators in Mattoon and Central Illinois to provide you with solutions that will help to ensure your livelihood and operational efficiency.

Why Choose Insulation Service for Your Agricultural Spray Foam Project?

When you engage us to take care of your agricultural insulation business, you are putting your farm in the hands of a staff that has its own history in the Central Illinois agricultural business and more than 50 years of specialized experience. Being a locally owned and veteran-run firm, which has been in operation since 1974, we are aware of the special problems that farm buildings have to contend with, such as the gases of livestock wastes and moisture, equipment influences, and pest pressure. We have developed our agricultural spray foams to survive under these extreme conditions and achieve the greatest thermal performance and structural assistance.

The spray foam insulation applied in agriculture produces numerous advantages that have direct effects on your farm’s productivity, including the health of your animals and your farm operations. In the livestock buildings like hog barns, dairy buildings, and poultry houses, closed-cell spray foam helps to provide a temperature-stable environment that minimizes stress to the animals. It decreases their feeding ratios and eliminates condensation of moisture, which causes respiratory diseases and structural deterioration. In grain storage buildings as well as equipment sheds, spray foam is an appropriate choice in terms of a vapor barrier that resists corrosive condensation of the metal structure. This also prevents temperature swings that may result in damage to stored crops and sensitive equipment. In the case of pole barns and workshops, spray foam provides a lot of structural integrity to wall and roof structures. Additionally, it aids your buildings to withstand wind up lifting and impact damage, and creates a clean and finished interior surface that reflects the light and enhances visibility. The material is also inherently resistant to mold, mildew, and infestation by pests. In your free estimate, we can evaluate your particular agricultural operation, your temperature control requirements, and ventilation needs, and prescribe which type and thickness of spray foam will give you the best ROI.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is spray foam insulation safe for livestock and poultry?

Yes, spray foam is absolutely safe to all livestock and poultry once it has been fully cured. Actually, it enhances the health of animals by ensuring that temperatures are kept under control, the moisture and ammonia concentration are lower, and the ambient environment is cleaner and more comfortable, which minimizes the stress and pressure of diseases.

Agricultural buildings are a significant point of concern due to condensation on metal roofs and walls, which causes rust, corrosion, and dripping water. This can destroy equipment and kill animals. Closed-cell spray foam serves as a continuous vapor barrier, which prevents condensation since warm, moist air does not come into contact with cold metal.

Spray foam is perfect for retrofitting old agricultural buildings. It can be sprayed onto the interior of metal, wood, or concrete surfaces without significant disassembly, sealing all the cracks and forming a finished, washable surface, which enhances the light response and look of the buildings.

Livestock and poultry use a lot of energy to keep their body temperature stable between hot and cold weather. Spray foam helps in conserving this energy waste by creating a temperature-stable environment, thus the animal can use more of the feed to grow and not to heat or cool, and improves feed efficiency.

Closed-cell spray foam forms a hard and dense barrier, which rodents cannot easily chew through, as with fiberglass or cellulose. It is also free of organic matter, which pests are attracted to, and it closes the holes and access points through which rodents usually get into the buildings, which offers effective pest-blocking.
