- Closed cell, 2 inches or more.It's a moisture barrier, a vapor barrier and an air barrier.
- Surfaces have to be dry.Moisture has to be below 8% before we spray.
- We need room to work.Foam is sprayed from 18 to 24 inches away, so the crawlspace needs clear access.
- Want it fully encapsulated?Encapsulation adds a vapor barrier with its own 10-year warranty.

Carmel is one of 7 towns we cover in Hamilton County, and it is young: the middle of its housing dates to 1998. Much of our work here is on houses that are still being framed.

Foam and thickness.
| Foam | Where it goes | Typical thickness | R-value at that thickness |
|---|---|---|---|
| Closed cell | Crawlspace | 2 in + | R-15 |
R-value measures how well insulation holds back heat. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power. Ask your seller for the fact sheet on R-values. R-values are for UPC 500 open cell and UPC 2.0 HFO closed cell, from the manufacturer's code compliance reports, at the thickness shown. Closed cell is rigid and also blocks moisture; open cell is softer and dampens sound. We choose the foam for each job. See the data sheets

Do you do crawlspaces in Carmel?
Yes. Carmel is 25.8 miles from our base in Anderson, and crawlspaces is one of the twenty things we spray. That is a routine trip for us, on jobs of any size. Tell us about the building and we'll quote it.
Which foam goes in a Carmel crawlspace?
Hamilton County is in climate zone 5, the colder of the two zones Indiana spans. We spray both open cell (R-13 at 3½ inches) and closed cell (R-15 at 2 inches), and which one a crawlspace needs depends on moisture and what the foam is going on. We tell you when we quote. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power. Ask your seller for the fact sheet on R-values.
