Frequently Asked Questions

Open-cell foam is lighter and less expensive, offering excellent air sealing, while closed-cell foam provides superior moisture control, structural strength, and higher R-value per inch. Closed-cell also acts as a vapor barrier, making it ideal for moisture-prone areas. At Integrity Climate Control, we help you choose based on your specific building needs and budget.

SPF roofing systems can exceed 50 years of durability when properly maintained and protected with coatings. The seamless, weather-tight design withstands Texas heat, UV exposure, and severe weather better than traditional roofing materials. Regular recoating every 10-20 years helps maximize lifespan and performance.

Yes, SPF roofing can be installed directly over most existing roof systems without costly tear-off. This approach saves time, reduces waste, and creates a seamless protective layer. At Integrity Climate Control, we assess the existing roof condition to ensure proper adhesion and long-term performance.

Protective coatings shield SPF roofs from UV rays, moisture intrusion, and foot traffic damage that can degrade the foam over time. Coatings like polyurea, acrylic, silicone, and urethane extend roof life and maintain reflectivity for energy efficiency. Reapplication every 10-20 years keeps the system performing optimally.

Spray foam insulation can reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 30% through superior air sealing and thermal resistance. It eliminates drafts and moisture issues that force HVAC systems to work harder. In hot climates like Navasota, TX, the energy savings are especially noticeable during summer months.

Spray foam combats condensation problems common in metal structures by providing complete air sealing and vapor barrier properties. It adheres directly to metal surfaces, improving temperature regulation and preventing moisture buildup that causes rust and mold. This makes it perfect for warehouses, shops, and agricultural buildings across Texas.

Polyurea is a fast-curing coating used for waterproofing, corrosion protection, and structural enhancement on various substrates. Its superior moisture resistance makes it ideal for foundations, floors, tanks, and industrial equipment. At Integrity Climate Control, we apply polyurea for both protective and restoration projects.

Yes, closed-cell spray foam acts as an effective air and vapor barrier, preventing moisture infiltration that leads to mold, rot, and structural damage. It seals gaps and cracks where humid air typically enters. This moisture control is critical in humid Texas climates like Houston and Bryan.

Concrete leveling restores uneven slabs by injecting expanding foam beneath the surface to lift and stabilize settled areas. This process addresses foundation settlement issues quickly without full replacement. At Integrity Climate Control, we use this method for driveways, sidewalks, and commercial floors throughout Texas.

Neglecting regular coating maintenance is the most common mistake, allowing UV damage and weathering to degrade the foam over time. Recoating every 10-20 years preserves the roof's seamless protection and energy efficiency. Without maintenance, even durable SPF systems can fail prematurely.

Yes, closed-cell spray foam adds structural rigidity to walls by bonding directly to framing and sheathing materials. This increases racking strength and helps buildings resist wind loads and impact damage. It's particularly beneficial for older structures and metal buildings needing reinforcement.
