A Closer Look At
Rock-Crete Foam Insulators

Forticel and Foam Insulation Save on Energy and Protection Against MOLD!
Greg Pruitt
P People all over the area have discovered the benefits of spray foam insulation and that number seems to be growing everyday. Rock-Crete Foam Insulators, the premier foam insulation company in this area for more than four years, has won over homeowners and builders with its Sealection 500 Insulation by Demilec. Celeste Wiese introduced Pete Catalina, an area builder to Demilec foam insulation. He now recommends RockCrete’s foam insulation to his customers and his last five jobs have included spray foam insulation. “The product is very good,” Catalina said. “What I like is that it goes in the rafters, not on top of the ceiling like traditional insulation. This gives us additional room for wiring and gives us some flexibility with that extra space.” The use of spray foam in new construction houses can create a total barrier, Catalina said. The ability of a home with complete foam insulation to keep outside temperatures from getting into a home is something Catalina calls “the Igloo cooler factor.” “I like spray foam because it makes a tight box within the home,” Catalina said. “It seals up like a cooler. You don’t have to worry as much about the outside pollution and bugs because that foam makes a solid seal.” RockCrete not only foams the house, but also caulks every place that foam cannot get into. They truly seal the envelope. This is something that other foam insulators just don’t do. 10 S
They also provide a free 25 year mold warranty in wet areas on most homes. Homeowners that retrofit their homes with spray foam insulation also see great results. Gina Ortiz recently had her home updated to spray foam after visiting a friend that used the product. “We had been thinking about it for a while after seeing what foam insulation did for our friend’s home,” she said. “Their home was very comfortable and very quiet.” It was the sound insulation that sold the Ortiz’s as much as the energy benefits. “The outside noise is almost gone,” Ortiz said. “You don’t hear the cars going by outside anymore and you don’t hear the heater unit in the attic.” Not that the heater is running very much in her home anyway. Since having the foam put in, Ortiz said she wakes up in the morning to a 70 degree house and 68 degree attic with the heater barely running despite frosty temperatures outside. “The heater doesn’t run much at all, but it’s still nice and toasty inside,” she said. “I just wish we could have done the foam insulation when we built our home.” Rock Crete Foam Insulators is the area’s most experienced company when it comes to reducing energy bills and making your home or office more comfortable. Pruitt stands behind his products and service 100 percent and has an ever-growing list of satisfied clients. “Unlike many claims with radiant barriers and radiant paint, this product actually reduces the attic temperatures drastically,” Pruitt said. “We have been in several houses with a 4/12 pitch roof with attic temperatures of only 7780 degrees. Compare that to an untreated temperature of 130 to 140 degrees. None of the other products out there can do that.”
