Fomo P10720 Handi-Foam

Handi-Foam® Two-Component Foam is a chemically cured foam system. These two components mix in the nozzle of the dispensing unit, and the resulting foam cures much more quickly than one-component foams.

Two-component foam systems consist of an “A" component and a “B" component. Handi-Foam Two-component Foams are available in a variety of densities. Two-component foam systems will expand immediately upon chemical reaction of A-component and B-component to a final volume that is 3 to 5 times the dispensed volume, in typical applications, and may be as much as 8 times the dispensed volume in specific applications, depending on various factors such as cavity size, ambient conditions, etc. The foam will cure to a semi-rigid closed cell foam upon the chemical reaction of component A (polymeric isocyanate) with component B (a polyol blend containing certain additives) and carries an R-Value of 6 to 7 per inch (.02w/m.k). Handi-Foam Two-Component Foam is tack free in less than 60 seconds and cures completely in 2-5 minutes. Cured foam can be trimmed, sanded and/or painted. Handi-Foam® Large Kits utilize the patented Handi Gun® Dispensing Unit. The Handi Gun® offers the highest flow rate available, convenient nozzle attachments, responsive trigger for accurate metering and solvent resistant cleanable nozzles. The Handi Gun® is designed for increased output and better accuracy. The kits are packaged in our patented easy open box with pre-attached hoses and upright cylinders. Larger kits are ideal for bigger projects, but are still compact enough for easy transport and use. Consists of two canisters, dispensing system & eight nozzles. Contains no formaldehyde.

 

Typical applications include: insulating commercial & residential construction, filling openings in boats & trailers, converting vans & buses, cold storage warehouses, noise reduction, insulating spas & hot tubs, insulating transportation trailers, large surface coverage and large voids, pole & post settings, stage & set design.

The 2009 economic stimulus package, known as The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (H.R. 1), promises large cost savings for residential and manufactured home builders.

Tax Credit for Consumers:
For consumers that are adding insulation to a pre existing home, the federal tax credit for installing insulation is 30% of the total product purchase price. The maximum potential tax credit for 2009 and 2010 is $1500. In order for a job to be applicable for the tax credit, the primary goal of the installed insulation should be to insulate. The product must carry a manufacturer's certification and the insulation must be expected to last for at least 5 years, or carry a 2 year warranty.

Solution:
Fomo Products, Inc offers an expansive product mix that meets each of the requirements outlined for the above tax credit. The Handi-Brand products, specifically the Handi-Brand Spray Foam systems, are most commonly used as insulation, to stop air infiltration, and to seal the building envelope. These foam options help to improve indoor air quality, lower heating and cooling costs, and drastically reduce energy consumption.

Tax Credit for Home Builders:
New residential and manufactured home builders are eligible for a $2,000 tax credit. In order to receive the tax credit the newly constructed home must generate 50% energy savings for heating and cooling over the 2004 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) and supplements or Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards.

Furthermore, at least 1/5 of the energy savings must come from building envelope improvements.

Solution:
The use of Fomo’s spray foam systems in critical spaces within the home will optimize energy savings by tightening and sealing potential areas where air infiltration occurs. Some of these critical spaces are attics, crawl spaces, rim joists, windows, doors, and wall cavities. By applying foam to these areas, the builder is able to test for noticeable energy savings as well as receive the tax credit for installing insulation and sealing the building envelope.
