Spray Foam Insulation in Levittown, PA

Spray Foam Insulation in Levittown usually means working with a Levitt & Sons original that has been changed many times since. The company built 17,311 homes here between 1952 and 1958, in just six models, and the 2020 census counted 18,913 housing units with only 2.7% vacant. That means nearly every house is lived in and heated year-round, which makes air sealing and insulation pay back steadily.

Slabs and radiant heat

Levitt houses were built on concrete slabs with copper radiant heating pipes, with no basements. Over the decades many of those systems have been replaced with forced air, often with ducts run through the attic. Ducts in a hot or cold attic lose a lot of energy. Where that is the case, we either seal and bury the ducts in deep loose fill or spray foam on the roof deck so the ducts sit inside the insulated space.

Raised and expanded houses

Walk any section, from Appletree Hill to Vermilion Hill, and you will see Levittowners with full second stories, Jubilees with dormers, and Ranchers with rear additions. Each one creates new kneewalls, sloped ceilings and small attic spaces that are hard to reach. Closed-cell foam on the slopes and kneewalls, with blown-in on the flat sections, usually solves the hot upstairs room.

Low ground and humid summers

The community sits roughly 30 to 40 feet above sea level and averages about 50.5 inches of precipitation a year. Before we insulate an addition or a garage ceiling, we check for leaks and drainage problems so new insulation does not trap moisture.
