Targeted Air Sealing with Ultra-Pure® Spray Foam

Even a well-insulated attic or crawlspace can underperform if air is still moving through the building envelope. Zhe Industries uses Natural Polymers™ Ultra-Pure® spray foam to apply a continuous 1-inch seal at critical penetration points where uncontrolled air leakage commonly occurs. Common leakage areas include plumbing penetrations, electrical penetrations, top plates, framing transitions, mechanical openings, and other small gaps that allow conditioned indoor air to escape and unconditioned attic or crawlspace air to enter.

This process is about more than simply filling openings. A continuous 1-inch application of Ultra-Pure® closed-cell spray foam adds insulating value while helping create a tighter air barrier. With an R-value of about 7.2 at 1 inch, Ultra-Pure® delivers strong thermal performance at the same locations where air leakage is most common. By sealing these critical bypasses, spray foam  stop convective air movement caused by wind pressure and stack effect, both of which can make small level openings have an substantial effect on comfort and energy efficiency.

Ultra-Pure® Spray Foam for a Better Air Seal

At Zhe Industries, we use Natural Polymers™ Ultra-Pure® spray foam as part of a more advanced approach to air sealing. Rather than simply filling visible gaps, Ultra-Pure® is applied strategically at key penetration areas to help create a cleaner, more continuous air barrier within the building envelope. Its ability to expand, adhere, and seal irregular openings makes it ideal for addressing the small but important leakage points that often cause insulation systems to underperform. This targeted approach supports better comfort, improved energy performance, and a more effective insulation system overall. For homeowners in Hampton Roads, where heat, humidity, and attic air leakage can all affect indoor conditions, Ultra-Pure® spray foam provides a smarter way to strengthen the home’s thermal boundary.
