I am glad you guys have started adding articles. I just hope you add something about the history of polyurethane foam. Where did it come from and how or why did people end up using it on roofs. I know foam is still used by NASA on space shuttle fuel tanks, so I wonder if that is somehow related.
I found the soy based foam and top 10 roofing myth articles the most interesting. Although foam in mattresses was unrelated, I still found that article informative. I had no idea that mattresses contained harmful anti-fire materials in them–and to think that these carcinogenic materials are even used in baby mattresses! I’m just glad someone cares enough to try and inform the public about this.
I have been interested in insalling solar panels on my foam roof, I have obtained several bids. One in which (national company,which name starts with I) would not entertain giving me a quote because I would
be forever fighting with a leaking roof. This sutuation has me taking
another look at this project. What has been your experience ?
