Introducing a New SPFA Initiative: A-Value – The Next Generation of Building Thermal Performance
A-Value allows construction industry professionals and building occupants to measure what truly matters: how a wall assembly performs in the real world.
With an ultimate goal of being recognized and adopted within building codes as the industry’s new benchmark for performance, A-Value studies show that SPF walls are significantly better than those using fiberglass - due to superior air-sealing properties which significantly reduce energy loss.
You can view the latest A-Value flyer here. To stay up to date on the latest A-Value initiatives, sign up here.
