How Much Energy Can Spray Foam Save You This Summer?

Utility forecasts for the Northeast show 6–12% higher cooling costs this summer. Spray foam insulation is one of the few upgrades that immediately reduces energy use.

Where Homes Lose the Most Energy

• Attics: up to 40% of summer heat gain

• Basements & crawl spaces: major sources of humidity

• Walls: air leakage around outlets, framing, and gaps

• Rim joists: one of the biggest hidden culprits

Realistic Spray Foam Savings in 2026

Hudson Valley homeowners typically see:

• 20–40% lower cooling costs

• Longer AC lifespan

• More stable indoor temperatures

• Less humidity and mold risk

Why Spray Foam Saves More Than Other Insulation

1. Air Sealing = Energy Savings

Most insulation only slows heat transfer. Spray foam stops air movement entirely.

2. Reduces AC Runtime

A sealed home doesn’t leak cold air. Your AC cycles less, saving money.

3. Controls Humidity

Moisture is expensive to cool. Spray foam reduces humidity load dramatically.

Where to Insulate for Maximum Summer Savings

• Attic roof deck

• Basement rim joists

• Crawl space walls

• Knee walls

• Bonus rooms over garages

Spray foam is one of the only home upgrades that pays for itself, especially during high‑cost summers like 2026. Call 1-845-361-1110 to speak with an Insulation Specialist to learn more about how we can keep you comfortable year-round today!
