A Critical Note About Spray Foam Insulation
If your home has spray foam insulation, you can only have a tankless water heater installed. Why? Because installing a tank-style water heater in a spray foam environment can be extremely dangerous. Without proper ventilation, you risk carbon monoxide poisoning or even a fire that could burn your house down.

We recently saw a home where a customer had a tank-type water heater surrounded by spray foam insulation. Thankfully, nothing tragic happened—but it very easily could have been catastrophic. (Check out the image below for an example.)

Safety always comes first. If you’re building, remodeling, or insulating, be sure to talk with your plumber about the right type of water heater for your home.
