DIY Spray Foam Insulation To Lower Energy Bill

What happens here

After approximately two and a half days of intensive work, the entire spray foam application phase is completed. The host confirms that 2800 square feet of roof area has been insulated. The closed-cell spray foam, which was used, does not require an additional vapor barrier because it inherently acts as one. The completed spray foam provides the foundational R-value and air sealing for the cabin.

Goal: After two and a half days, all spray foam application is completed across 2800 square feet of roof area, marking the conclusion of this phase of the insulation process.

What they say

Hide

they have been overnight here it's been like 20° overnight uh you have to have them be in a room temperature for 24 to 48 hours which is mindboggling to me because most of the time you're going to be using instulation is because you don't have heat in the building like this new construction that we're doing um so I'm going to do two things I'm going to take him to my house let him sit for 2 days uh in like the living room arena is going to love that second thing I'm going to do is I'm going to go buy a diesel heater and warm up this place uh so that on Monday I could have a warm place and bring them out of the inside of my truck to there I have to baby these things this is stupid all right
