Lapolla Spray Foam Used for 'Extreme Makeover: Home Edition' TV Show
Houston, TX - November 2, 2011 - Lapolla Industries, Inc. today announced that their spray foam insulation systems contributed to the energy efficiency and improved occupant comfort of an “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” project in Ottawa, KS. The episode featuring The Hill Family Home is scheduled to air on Friday, November 4, 2011 at 8/7c on ABC.
The Hill home was a different type of spray foam job; the main focus was to reduce sound transmission into the home along with overall energy savings. Staff Sgt. Allen Hill suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder and has a medical condition that affects him with loud sounds.
Diane Korman, producer on the series, invited Lapolla Industries to come out and help the Hill Family. Lapolla immediately called on one of its certified contractors to spray our Airtight Open Cell Foam for maximum sound reducing properties along with high r?value of 3.9 per inch. Mike Tichenor from Alternative Energy Systems along with Troy Herring, Lapolla Insulation Products Manager & Jeff Smith, Lapolla Sales Manager started the job at 3:00 A.M. and stayed on the project working with all contractors & production crew to finish the job by 2:00 A.M. the next day. It was the hottest day in over 10 years- over 110 degrees. With the hard work & dedication from Alternative Energy Systems we were able to finish the job & satisfy local code officials.
“Lapolla AirTight Open Cell foam was the best choice for this “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” that was calling for the very best sound deadening & insulation qualities on the market. AirTight Open Cell Foam goes on as a liquid under high pressure sealing every crack & crevice, expanding 150 times its liquid volume. This reduces sound transfer through the roof & walls tremendously with extreme energy savings for the family,” said Troy Herring, Lapolla Insulation Product Manager.
