For SPF insulation contractors

Bid the real yield, not the drum label.

A closed-cell set is rated "up to 5,000 board feet." Real-world yield after cold substrate, humidity, and technique commonly lands at 3,200–3,400. FoamCalc adjusts for job conditions, then logs what actually happened so your own history tunes future bids.

What FoamCalc deliberately doesn't do: no code-compliance verdicts anywhere in the app — it gives you inches for a target R-value, never a pass/fail. No vapor-retarder determination, no ignition/thermal barrier lookup, no re-entry/re-occupancy timing guidance, no chemistry/off-ratio troubleshooting, no homeowner energy-savings claims. The R-value reference screen is labeled with its code edition (2021 IECC prescriptive minimums) and always tells you to verify with your local building department.
