https://youtu.be/jvunS0J6uHgLooking for a reliable, easy-to-use insulation solution? The Vega Bond Open Cell Spray Foam Insulation Kit is your go-to choice for superior air sealing, soundproofing, and energy efficiency. This portable, disposable kit is designed for both DIY enthusiasts and professionals, offering a seamless insulation experience with an impressive R-value of 4.4 per inch.
Crafted with safety and performance in mind, the foam is ASTM E84 Class A rated, ensuring top-tier fire resistance and minimal smoke development. With its 1 lb/ft³ density, this lightweight open cell foam is perfect for a variety of indoor applications. Most open cell products are 0.5 lbs in density also called half pound foam, we offer 2 times in density to provide better sound and thermal insulation.
What's Included:
-
10 ft hose and spray gun assembly for 320sqft Coverage Kit and 15ft on the 1100 sqft coverage kit
-
8 interchangeable spray nozzles (4 fan and 4 cone options)
-
Protective gloves, safety goggles, and disposable coverall
Make sure to apply all safety measures that are mentioned in the manual.

- Can be used in conjunction with closed cell for the exterior walls. Apply 1 inch of closed cell foam then spray open cell over the closed cell.
Open-cell spray foam insulation is a type of polyurethane foam that has a porous cell structure, making it softer and more flexible compared to closed-cell foam. It expands significantly when applied, filling gaps and cavities effectively.
Benefits of Open-Cell Spray Foam Insulation:
-
Sound Absorption: Its porous structure helps dampen noise, making it a great choice for soundproofing walls and ceilings.
-
Air Barrier: At a depth of 2 inches, it acts as an air barrier, reducing drafts and improving indoor air quality.
-
Thermal Performance: It has an R-value of approximately 3.5 to 4.5 per inch, helping regulate indoor temperatures and reducing heating and cooling costs.
-
Moisture Control: While it does not serve as a vapor barrier like closed-cell foam, it slows moisture movement, reducing the risk of mold and mildew.
Where It Can Be Used:
-
Interior Walls and Ceilings: Ideal for soundproofing and thermal insulation.
-
Attics and Roofs: Helps regulate temperature and prevent air leaks.
-
Basements and Crawl Spaces: Provides insulation while allowing controlled moisture movement.
-
Between Floors: Reduces noise transmission within multi-story buildings.
