Foam IT 602 Slow Rise DIY Polyurethane Spray Foam Kit

Great product, but expensive and takes about 6 to do a small house.

will be using more in future

I have an old house and I had no insulation at all, so I ordered 602 Slow Rise kit to fill the emptiness between the walls. 3 things that are wrong with this product 1. You will never fill the entire gap, and if you missed spots the wall will be cold in those places, and you cannot redo it. I spoke with professionals, and even they said it's almost impossible to fill it our 100%, that is why professional almost never do injections with spray foam. I did mine and I can tell you the job is NOT GOOD. I wish I wound't not do that. I know it looks good on their video, but you will NEVER, repeat NEVER get this results. 2. On their site "Sq/f calculator is based on 1" thickness, turns out I have 4", so to insulate the house with this product is not realistic.(this my mistake, but just wanted to bring it up, so you will be aware of this too) 3. I did not like how it insulated the wall that I did, so I started doing research for alternatives and found out that this spray foam is EXTREMELY TOXIC, read this [...] I wish I knew that before I bought it, I was spraying with my wife and 3 year old kid in the house (on a different floor of course, but in the house), even worse I did not know that 'sanding' is the same TOXIC as when you were applying the spay, their instructions doesn't warn you about any of it. At the end I went with cellulose, it covered all 4" 100% dense, it costed me 4 times cheaper, and are you ready? that is with professional installation, not by me. Just wanted to share it so people will not make mistakes that I did.

I am very happy with my 602 SR kit. I blind filled the wall cavity between the interior plaster and exterior brick walls of my 1910 house. I had concerns about the plaster cracking, but I did not have a single crack. Amazing! Prior to ordering, I called your help line to ask whether I should get closed or open cell. Initially, I was drawn to the open cell for the cost/yield ratio, but the person I spoke with told me how open cell could hold water and would not be a vapor barrier. She recommended closed cell which would prevent condensation inside the walls. Plus, it has a higher R-value. I appreciated her knowledgeable answer and ordered my kit on the same call. The directions that came with it and their website were very detailed. If you follow the directions like ensuring the tanks are at the right temp, the surface you are spraying is the right temp, shaking the tanks prior to use, etc you will get perfect results. This was actually my third kit. Every time I finish a kit, I get a good feeling that next month's utility bill will be a little lower. This is a great investment. Spray Foam is the BEST insulation you can use. It is far superior to fiberglass and cellulose.

I saw the video and read the instruction how to use it. Thinking that I will save money by doing it myself. Big mistake. I ended up spending more than if I would have hired a professional to do it. The foam doesn't come out smooth or well cover like the professional especially on the ceiling. This lead to gap and air space which can easily pull down. It also meants it's not airtight like it supposed to. Make it worse you end up a lot of waste because some tank has more air pressure than the others, so you will use up one tank and the other still has the solution. I ended up with wasting my time, money, headache, and a bad quality product. guess what, you don't have the guarantee for the work either. Don't make the same mistake that I made. Stay away from it.
