  Any of these should provide you very effective insulation. Foam insulation can be done as a liquid or even using factory made polyurethane foam boards.
  
  Liquid foam insulation is done either by applying via small spray containers like a liquid or through a pressure sprayed product for challenging applications. Both types expand and solidify because the chemical mixture cures. Both spray foam and also foam boards are equally versatile and enables you to insulate roofs, walls, foundations, entry and overhead car port doors, pipes and tanks, under basement slabs, or over a slab-on-grade floorboards.
  
  Be it any type of foam insulation, you must take care to defend it from direct sunlight as the sun's ultraviolet rays have the potential to damage them. For roofs, it's preferable to utilize a coating of tar/ acrylic/ silicone/ plastic paint. Or else, you can also cover the foam which has a rubber or plastic membrane or a layer of asphalt and roofing felt. Foam board insulation is extremely effective in preventing your oppressive summer heat from penetrating into your house. It also would assist you conserve energy and save in your utility bills. Foam board insulation is usually a rigid foam sheet, usually four by seven feet (1. 2 by 2. 4 m) in dimensions, used in nearly all areas of building construction to supply thermal resistance in floor surfaces, ceilings and walls.
  
  Polyurethane and Polyisocyanurate foam board are similar in content. Foam board insulation is frequently placed between the exterior finish plus the studs of exterior rooms. To prevent air infiltration, it is necessary to set rigid insulation boards snugly together and seal your seams with tape or caulk. Polystyrene foam board efficiency is done in quite similar way as Polyurethane along with Polyisocyanurate foam boards, except for the dissimilarities in expansion.
  
  Please bear in intellect that foam board insulation is vulnerable to deterioration through exposure to sun. Though foam insulation gives no food value in order to insects, still insects can bore holes into it. Therefore it will be necessary that you take appropriate precautionary measures to shield your insulation from sun and insect damage.
  
  Foam insulation is definitely not easily combustible but in case ignited, it burns and emits dense, black, smoke containing pernicious poisonous gases. Because of these untouched perils, foams used for construction will be needing a covering as a new fire barrier.
  
  A lot of precaution is essential to install foam warmth. You may have to utilize a mask helmet and hand protection. It is even advisable to repay your whole body since foam is hyper allergen and it can result in dermatological problems. It is wiser which you hire an experienced professional to complete the task as the health risk is quite high.
  
  Rigid foam board insulation is amongst the most effective insulation techniques car without any high R-value. This utilizes boards of insulation that happen to be formed by different synthesizing processes. These boards come in handy when large areas must be insulated and regular aerosol foam insulation becomes an extremely tedious and time ingesting task. Foam board insulation discovers application in insulating partitions, foundations, roofs, tanks, etc.
  
  Types of Rigid Polyurethane foam Boards
  
  Rigid foam board insulation can be purchased in many types depending about the chemical composition and the strategy for their synthesis.
