Cochrane sits in the Bow Valley corridor west of Calgary, at the foothills where the terrain starts climbing toward the mountains - which means more exposure to wind and sharper temperature swings than the city it borders. Like most of the towns ringing Calgary, Cochrane's growth has been recent and fast, so the housing stock is dominated by newer builds rather than an older core needing retrofit.
Every building type, one city
- Homes - about 16% of Cochrane housing predates 1991, among the newest stock on this list; the real opportunity here is sealing new construction correctly against foothills wind exposure. See residential spray foam insulation.
- Commercial and industrial - light-industrial and commercial space serving Cochrane's growing population. See commercial spray foam insulation.
- Farms and acreages across Rocky View County's foothills - see agricultural spray foam insulation.
Closed-cell or open-cell for a Cochrane job
Closed-cell resists the wind-driven moisture that comes with foothills exposure and seals exterior walls tight; open-cell is the lower-cost choice for interior walls and sound control where wind isn't a factor. New builds in Cochrane's growing subdivisions benefit from both being specified up front.
