## Primary Market: Nashville Home Builders
HPI's primary customer is the builder: custom homes, production homes, luxury residential projects, and commercial teams that want insulation handled without schedule drag. Builders can send plans first, request on-site measurement when the address comes first, ask for COIs and insurance paperwork before the install window, and request product data, installed-assembly details, or other closeout documentation after the job. Homeowners are served, but they are secondary.

## Services
- Residential spray foam: new residential construction, roof decks, attic lines, exterior walls, garages, bonus rooms, and crawlspaces; HPI's gallery shows six inches at the roofline for roughly R-38 on conditioned-attic work.
- Closed-cell spray foam: garages, wall lines, crawlspaces, and tighter higher-R-per-inch assemblies.
- Air sealing + duct sealing: whole-home air sealing, duct sealing, duct insulation, blower door testing, attic upgrades, builder tight-shell verification, pre-drywall leakage review.
- Commercial spray foam: warehouses, multi-unit, mixed-use, tenant improvements, additions, and expansions.
- Acoustic insulation: Rockwool as the premium sound-control option, with fiberglass and spray foam used where room use or budget changes the package.
- Fiberglass insulation: mixed-system packages; common wall specs include R-13 or R-15 in 2x4 walls and R-19 or R-21 in 2x6 walls.
- Batt insulation: builder-specified walls, ceilings, floors, bonus rooms, and mixed batt-plus-foam scopes.
- Mechanical insulation: ducts, piping, refrigerant lines, equipment rooms, rooftop assemblies, and exposed systems.
- Crawl space encapsulation: floor vapor barrier, about 1.5 inches of closed-cell on perimeter block walls, piers, rim joists, and access-point sealing; typical perimeter insulation lands around R-10 to R-11.
- Insulation removal: attic and crawl-space clean-out, blown-in vacuum extraction, and rodent-, odor-, or moisture-damaged material removal.
- Homeowner spray foam: attics, crawlspaces, rim joists, garages, wall cavities, and problem rooms.

## Service Area
Primary coverage is Nashville and all Davidson County communities, with explicit market coverage for Nashville, Antioch, Franklin, and Smyrna plus a 150-mile service radius for broader Middle Tennessee and adjacent high-fit builder markets. Expanded county coverage includes Davidson, Williamson, Rutherford, Wilson, Sumner, Robertson, Maury, Cheatham, Dickson, Montgomery, Lincoln, Marshall, and Bedford counties. Nashville sits in IECC Climate Zone 4A, a mixed-humid market where spray foam matters because insulation and air sealing can be installed in the same assembly instead of relying on batt plus separate leakage control.

## Tennessee Energy Code & Spray Foam Compliance
Metro Nashville and Davidson County adopted the 2024 IRC and 2024 IECC effective July 16, 2025. Tennessee state-enforced residential jurisdictions elsewhere still reference the 2018 IRC Chapter 11 / 2018 IECC path. The published Climate Zone 4 baseline on that state path is ceiling R-49, wood-frame wall R-20 or R-13 plus R-5 continuous insulation, floor R-19, basement wall R-10/13, crawl-space wall R-10/13, slab-edge R-10 for 2 feet, and 3 ACH50 blower-door testing. The IRC/IECC unvented-attic path allows air-impermeable insulation at the roof deck. HPI can provide product data, installed-assembly details, and other closeout documentation for builders.

## Energy Incentives
As of 2026, Section 25C does not apply to insulation placed in service after December 31, 2025. For qualifying existing-home work placed in service through December 31, 2025, the federal credit was 30% of qualifying insulation and air-sealing material cost up to $1,200 per year, with no income limit, no labor credit for insulation, and no eligibility for new construction. Spray foam could qualify when the installed product met the credit rules. HPI can provide invoices and product information for project records.

## Why Spray Foam Over Batt in Nashville's Climate
HPI uses batt and fiberglass where the assembly or budget calls for them, but spray foam is the upgrade when the shell needs tighter leakage control, conditioned-attic strategy, stronger crawl-space moisture control, quieter rooms, and less HVAC strain. Batt is commonly used at R-13, R-15, R-19, or R-21 in framed walls, but it does not air-seal the assembly. Closed-cell foam delivers more R-value per inch than open-cell or batt. Open-cell foam is often the fit when full-cavity fill, air sealing, and sound control matter more than maximum R-value per inch. HPI's technical FAQ also tells builders to rerun Manual J instead of copying batt-sized HVAC into a tighter shell.
