Carolina Energy Conservation Case Studies: Shed Insulation in Pawleys Island, SC

Challenge

This new outdoor shed had bare plywood walls. The homeowner called us to have the shed insulated prior to putting the walls up in the shed. It was important for the shed to be air tight to prevent moisture damage. 

Solution

There are two types of spray foam insulation: Open Cell and Closed Cell

For this outdoor shed in Pawley's Island, our homeowner chose closed cell spray foam. Closed cell spray foam is dense and more resistant to moisture, making it better suited for exterior applications and areas with high humidity levels.

✅  Benefits

• Very energy-efficient with proven energy savings of up to 50%
• Provides an airtight seal
• It’s water-resistant and deters mold
• High R-value of 7
• Longer lifespan than open cell spray foam
• Strong enough to provide structural support wherever it is installed
• Eco-friendly—it lasts longer and uses less material than any other insulation type

Protecting your home and belongings is our number one priority. Choosing spray foam insulation is the best option to prevent leaks and ensure your investment for years to come.
