Spray Foam vs. Fiberglass: Which Insulation Is Right for Your Home?

When it comes to insulating your home or building, the options can feel overwhelming—but two choices stand out: spray foam and fiberglass. At Superior Foam Solutions, we’re often asked which one is better. And while both offer benefits, one clearly stands above the rest when it comes to long-term performance, energy savings, and overall value.

Here’s how spray foam compares to traditional fiberglass insulation—and why more Missouri homeowners are making the switch.

🔍 Head-to-Head Comparison

Feature	Spray Foam	Fiberglass
Air Sealing	✅ Excellent	🚫 Poor
R-Value per Inch	✅ High	🚫 Moderate
Moisture Resistance	✅ Superior	🚫 Susceptible to mold
Durability	✅ 20–50 years	🚫 Can degrade in 10–15 years
Pest Resistance	✅ Seals entry points	🚫 Attracts nesting rodents
Energy Efficiency	✅ Saves up to 50%	🚫 Less effective

💸 Why Spray Foam Offers Better ROI

While fiberglass may have a lower upfront cost, spray foam provides significantly greater long-term savings. Homes insulated with spray foam can see energy bills drop by 30–50%, paying for the installation in just a few years.

Spray foam also adds value at resale, thanks to its efficiency, durability, and soundproofing benefits.

🌧️ Protection Beyond Just Temperature

Spray foam isn’t just about keeping the cold out and the heat in. It also protects against:

• Moisture infiltration that causes mold and mildew

• Pests entering through small cracks and crevices

• Outdoor noise, making your home more peaceful
