Foam Prep


The spray foam insulation crew was in today to prep the windows, doors and inside walls with protective plastic and plastic backing. Click on the image for better detail of the first floor, which presently looks like something out of the movie E.T. Here's another photo from a different angle.

We're insulating the interior walls and first floor ceiling as much for energy efficiency as we are for sound proofing. Icynene spray foam has good sound dampening qualities and it can be applied quickly. And since it doesn't have to be cut into polygons like batt insulation, we can fill in all the little nooks and crannies around electrical fixtures, wiring, plumbing, ventilation ducts, windows and doors that would otherwise be escape holes for heat and sound.
