Spray Foam Insulation in Millersville, PA

Spray Foam Insulation in Millersville serves a borough built around a university. The town began as Millerstown, a farm crossroads on John Miller's land in Manor Township, and became home to the state's first teachers' academy in 1854, chartered as a state normal school in 1855 and now Millersville University. The 2000 census counted 2,469 housing units in the borough, and a share of them serve as rentals.

For landlords

Rental houses benefit from insulation in practical ways: fewer complaints about cold rooms, lower bills where tenants pay utilities, and fewer frozen pipes in the rim area. Attic sealing and rim joist foam are quick jobs that can often be done between tenants.

For owners

Older houses near the center need attic and rim work first. Newer homes on the edges often have rooms over garages and finished basements that benefit from foam.

On the Conestoga

A small part of the borough's southern border touches the Conestoga River, a tributary of the Susquehanna. Houses on low ground should have dry basements before any foundation wall insulation goes in.

Zone 5

Lancaster County is in Pennsylvania's central Zone 5 group. For existing attics, ENERGY STAR's zone 5 guidance is R-60 for an empty attic and adding R-49 over three to four inches.

Scheduling around the school year

For rentals, summer turnover is often the easiest time to work in attics and basements. We can schedule around move-out and move-in dates.
