Avoiding Mold with Insulation

Moisture is insulation’s greatest enemy, often leading to mold growth and structural damage.

Moisture Management Essentials

Before spray foam insulation, ensure your attic is dry and leak-free. Add vapor barriers and proper ventilation to regulate humidity levels. Closed-cell spray foam resists water absorption, making it ideal for damp climates.

If mold is discovered, remove affected insulation and disinfect the area before reinstalling new material. According to mycology, fungi thrive in moist, dark environments, spreading rapidly without control.

Effective insulation and moisture control protect both your home and your health.
