Spray Foam Systems Revolutionizes Low-Pressure Polyurethane Foam Applications

GREENSBORO, GA – February 18, 2016 – Low-pressure foam systems offer major benefits over high-pressure foam in certain circumstances, notably cost-effectiveness for smaller applications. However, one major drawback is the tedious calibration process, which not only negatively impacts time and labor, but also increases material waste. In short, the calibration process is a time-consuming combination of pressure adjustments, test spraying, and weighing in pursuit of the ideal 1:1 ratio between the A and B sides of a low-pressure spray foam system.

"In the past, contractors used calibration nozzles and plastic bags to manually calibrate the chemical by weighing it on a digital scale, and then dividing the results to determine the ratio," explained T.J. Peters, General Manager of Spray Foam Systems. "If the ratio is incorrect, then they have to adjust the pressures and/or temperatures in order to apply it properly."
