Red Seal CertifiedWhy Does Vernon Need Spray Foam Insulation?
Spray foam insulation seals air leaks and provides the highest R-value per inch, reducing heating costs by 30 to 50% in cold Canadian climates.
North Okanagan conditions move from freezing winters to hot, semi-arid summers, with wildfire smoke adding a seasonal air-quality concern. On Vernon's sloped sites, sprayed insulation is particularly effective at walkout transitions and vaulted rooflines where rigid or batt layers are difficult to continue.
Vernon's Insulation Challenges
North Okanagan winters create large indoor-outdoor temperature differences at hillside wall and roof cavities
Hot, dry summers push solar heat through lake-facing rooflines with limited insulation depth
Seasonal wildfire smoke enters Vernon homes through unsealed eaves, service penetrations, and foundation joints
Complex walkout basements on sloped lots interrupt conventional air barriers between levels
How Spray Foam Helps
Spray foam combines air sealing with high R-value per inch for Vernon's compact vaulted and lake-view assemblies
A continuous foam layer reduces smoke pathways before outdoor particles can reach indoor air
Closed-cell application at walkout rim joists handles thermal bridging across stepped hillside foundations
Roofline foam slows summer heat gain and winter heat escape, easing both FortisBC cooling and heating demand

What Type of Spray Foam is Right for Your Vernon Home?
Open-cell foam (R-3.7/inch) is ideal for interior walls and soundproofing, while closed-cell foam (R-6.5/inch) provides a moisture barrier for basements and exteriors.
Vernon's Zone 5 climate and closed-cell foam controls condensation where vernon's cold winter air meets heated walkout-basement and roof assemblies conditions inform our recommendation for the right spray foam type.
Open-Cell Spray Foam
R-3.7 per inch
- Excellent soundproofing properties for interior walls
- More flexible, ideal for areas with movement or settling
- Allows moisture to pass through (breathable)
- Cost-effective for large interior applications
- Perfect for interior walls, attics (with vapor retarder), and floors
Best for Vernon: Interior partition walls, soundproofing between rooms, and attic applications where a separate vapor barrier is installed.
Closed-Cell Spray Foam
R-6.5+ per inch
- Highest R-value per inch of any insulation material, ideal cold climate insulation
- Acts as its own vapor and moisture barrier
- Adds structural rigidity to walls and rooflines
- Resists water, mold, and moisture infiltration
- Ideal for exterior walls, basements, crawl spaces, and rim joists
Best for Vernon: Exterior walls, basements, and any area where moisture is a concern. Provides the R-value needed for your climate zone.

"I ONLY WISH THEY INSTALLED OUR HEAT PUMP ORIGINALLY"
Great company to deal with. We hired them to move an existing heat pump after the original installer refused to help us. The estimator and the installer were both very polite, careful and thorough. I only wish they installed our heat pump originally. I would hire them again without hesitation.

Which Spray Foam Is Right for Your Vernon Home?
There are two types of spray foam insulation, and the right choice depends on where it's being installed and the specific moisture challenges in Vernon. Here's what our local installers recommend.
Closed-Cell Spray Foam
Vernon's high rainfall and coastal or interior moisture means closed-cell foam is the standard choice for basements, crawlspaces, and any below-grade area. Its built-in vapour barrier prevents moisture from migrating through the building envelope.
- ✓ R-6 to R-6.5 per inch, highest R-value available
- ✓ Acts as a built-in vapour barrier, no separate poly required
- ✓ Adds structural rigidity to wall assemblies and rim joists
- ✓ Impervious to water, won't sag, settle, or absorb moisture over time
Open-Cell Spray Foam
Open-cell foam is a cost-effective option for interior partition walls, attic assemblies above the roof deck, and sound control between floors in Vernon homes. It breathes freely, which suits dryer interior spaces.
- ✓ R-3.5 to R-4 per inch, excellent air sealing at lower cost
- ✓ Superior soundproofing between rooms and floors
- ✓ More affordable per board foot, suited for large interior areas
- ⚠ Not suitable for below-grade or exterior applications in Vernon

Our free home assessment determines the right foam type, thickness, and application areas, and we'll identify any CleanBC rebates of up to $6,000 you qualify for. See available rebates →
