The method of use for spray foam in the attic is often dictated by the building science and design principles your architect and/or builder subscribes to.  In a traditional vented attic, insulation is used on the attic floor to insulate the ceiling from the seasonal heat and/or cold.  Spray foam is used where traditional fiberglass batts, or cellulose is used; between the floor joists.  The rest if the attic is left un-insulated and highly vented through gable, soffit, and ridge vents in the roof structure.  This type of engineered system is the most common throughout the US, but may not be the most effective.


Thanks
