Phoenix Heat No Match for Spray Foam Roofing

The average low temperature in Phoenix, Arizona in July is 83 degrees Fahrenheit. The average high is 106! You do not need a physics degree to know that the sun heats up rooftops, and that heat puts a strain on Air Conditioning systems trying to keep interior areas cool. Also, everyday consumer product examples demonstrate that it takes insulation to keep the cool in, and foam does a great job at keeping enclosed spaces cool. The foam in ice chests keeps your picnic supplies cold in the summer, and those giant fountain drinks that come in foam cups stay cold longer than plain plastic cups. Foam technology has advanced to make a rooftop insulating material that can easily be sprayed on, and you can walk on it after it cures.

Roof Color Makes a Difference

Many large industrial, retail and commercial buildings have flat rooftops that soak up the heat from the summer sun like a sponge. There are still some roofs that are covered in black, heat-absorbing rubber. A foam roof top-coated with a white coating reflects the heat from sunlight, which lowers energy costs to cool the interior space.

Foam Weatherproofs Imperfections

A flat roof can have many imperfections that can permit water to seep into the building. It is common to have cracks and fissures at roof edges and around conduits, vents and wires that protrude through the roof surface. A sprayed foam roof molds around and into every roof imperfection, creating a smooth and even coating that is weatherproof.

The Spray Gun Makes the Difference

There are different foam products available to coat roofs, and it takes more than choosing the foam type to do the job right. The spray gun that sprays the foam is a critical piece of equipment. The liquid foam material has to be mixed properly at the nozzle of the spray gun to ensure proper coverage and product longevity. Our Max-X foam gun is the best polyurethane spray foam applicator in the industry. It is easy to use, easy to clean, and ensures even coverage of foam over any roof surface.

The answer to lower energy costs to cool homes and businesses in the Arizona heat is to use professionally applied polyurethane spray foam roofing. Foam can also be used on sidewalls to insulate industrial buildings. If you are thinking about the advantages of sprayed foam roofing and insulation, Foam Experts Roofing Incorporated has developed the most advanced foam sprayer in the roofing industry to get the job done right.
