Some of the information in this section may at times only be indirectly related to foam roofing. However, the focus of this business and this website is foam roofing. Although Dura-Foam Solar Center does offer solar and other related services, foam roofing has been the core specialization of this organization for about three decades. Adding solar-power installation services was a logical extension of our foam roofing business because it is both roofing related and 'green building' related.

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 ?
