        "text": "Spray foam insulation typically has a higher upfront cost per square foot than traditional insulation materials like fiberglass or cellulose. However, its superior insulating properties and airtight seal can lead to greater long-term energy savings. The precise cost depends on the type of foam (open-cell vs. closed-cell), the area to be insulated, and the R-value desired. While the initial investment might be more, many homeowners find the enhanced comfort and reduced utility bills justify the cost over the lifespan of the insulation.",
