Spray Foam Insulation in Ephrata, PA

Spray Foam Insulation in Ephrata covers two different settings. The borough grew around the Ephrata Cloister, founded by Johann Conrad Beissel in 1732, and its downtown includes a commercial historic district on the National Register. Around it, Wikipedia notes, the countryside is home to many Amish and Old Order Mennonite families, so farm buildings, shops and machine sheds are common.

In town

The 2020 census counted 5,936 housing units in the borough, with 3.5% vacant and a homeowner vacancy rate of just 0.9%. Older houses near the center need attic and rim joist sealing first; newer homes on the edges often need bonus rooms and basements handled.

Electric utility

The Borough of Ephrata Electric Division supplies power to most of the borough, with PPL serving part of it. PPL's insulation rebate applies only to PPL customers, so check which utility serves your address before planning on a rebate.

Shops and barns

Steel buildings drip when warm, moist air hits cold metal. Closed-cell foam on the steel walls and roof stops condensation and insulates in one step.

Climate

Ephrata has a hot-summer humid continental climate, with average monthly temperatures from 30.0°F in January to 74.6°F in July, and is in hardiness zone 6b. Cocalico Creek flows through the borough just north of the center.
