Larson Home Services specializes in installing rigid foam insulation for your attic. Rigid is a superior insulation product known for its durability, high level of insulation, and versatility. Rigid foam boards maintain their insulating value without settling or compressing over time, unlike other materials commonly used. A major benefit of foam insulation is that it doesn’t foster mold growth and remains inhospitable to mice, insects, and other pests, creating a healthy attic environment.

Types of Rigid Foam Insulation
Polyisocyanurate
Polyisocyanurate is a type of rigid foam insulation that boasts the highest R-value per inch among other rigid foam insulation options. This closed-cell rigid insulation, known as Polyiso, finds application in various scenarios, such as cavity walls, stud walls, masonry walls, and vaulted ceilings, making it an effective and versatile solution.
Extruded Polystyrene
Extruded polystyrene is a closed-cell insulation type of rigid foam that is typically recognizable by its pink or blue color and smooth plastic surface. The closed-cell structure of the foam board creates a consistent R-value of R-5 per inch that is unfazed by variations in density.
Expanded Polystyrene
Expanded polystyrene stands out as a budget-friendly insulation material. This type of rigid foam not only meets, but exceeds all essential building and energy codes in your home. When deciding between the three rigid foam insulation options, expanded polystyrene rigid insulation is known for its exceptional versatility. This makes it a fitting choice for insulating attics, walls, and below-grade areas.
SilverGlo™ Rigid Foam Insulation
SilverGlo™ insulation is designed for effective use throughout multiple areas in your home, including the attc.
SilverGlo™ boards are infused with graphite powder to enhance their insulating properties. Each board is equipped with a reflective coating, creating a radiant barrier. A 2-inch-thick board carries a rating of R-9, or R-11, with an adjacent air space next to the radiant barrier. Thicker boards are also available for applications requiring higher R-values. Larson Home Services’ technicians further enhance energy efficiency by creating an effective air barrier through the meticulous taping of seams between boards.
