Pumpin the Walls full


The cube is like an ice box in the winter. It's like a barn with uninsulated walls. I had the exterior walls insulated using the pump in expanding foam.

It is a bit scary to see two guys make hundreds of 1 inch holes all across your wall.

Then they pump in the foam and it expands, finding any crevice to ooze out of.

Then you need to plug and mud it over and prep for another round of painting.

Insulate the 'attic'


There is about 14-18 inches between the ceiling and the flat roof...

I had the blow in insulation using the bedroom closet as the access point. Some poor guy had to crawl around up there to direct the hose.

A big truck in the drive with a long hose, and a generator pumping the the air to deliver the little snowclouds of insulating fluff.
