Image
Rigid foam serves as the sheathing on these 2x6 24-inch on center walls; plywood is used only at the corners for wind bracing.
Image
Image
Rigid insulation and air-sealing can be used to thermally isolate garages from interior occupied space in multifamily row houses/townhouses.
Image
Rigid insulation and water control layers are installed on the exterior of a flat foundation wall; spray foam insulates the rim joist
Image
Rigid insulation can be used as a thermal break between a garage slab with a heated plenum space and a separately cast garage slab without a heated plenum space.
Image
Image
Rigid mineral wool insulation is covered with ¼-inch wood battens which provides a air and drainage gap under the cedar and fiber cement siding.
Image
Rim joists are insulated with R-20 of open-cell spray foam which is air sealing and insulating but vapor permeable.
Image
Roofing membrane is installed over polyisocyanurate rigid foam insulation and insulation cover board that has been cut to fit around locations for blocking for the PV system rack
Image
Roofing paper protects the top of the new plywood parapet while the base of the parapet is air sealed with spray foam and fibrous insulation is installed in the rafter cavities in this flat roof retrofit
Image
Image
Seal all joints and seams in the metal ductwork with mastic before installing insulation
Image
Seal seams in fiber board ducts with out-clinching staples, UL-181A-approved tape, and mastic
Image
Seal the drywall to top-plate seams and the lower edge of baffles to the top plate to prevent the air coming from soffit vents from flowing under baffles into insulation.
Image
Image
Image
Seams in the ICF block are sealed so the EPS foam surface can serve as the drainage plane; no house wrap is needed.
Image
Sheets of phase-change material are installed over the cellulose insulation to help even out interior temperatures.
Image
Side and plan views of window-to-wall interface in masonry wall retrofit including three layers of rigid foam exterior insulation, box extensions, and flashing around new windows.

Side view showing air-sealing and rigid foam insulation is installed over existing wall and ceiling under a room above, then covered with new gypsum board.
Image
Side view showing how the existing garage wall and ceiling are air-sealed prior to installing rigid foam insulation on the garage side of the shared wall of an existing home.
Image
Siding has been removed so cellulose insulation can be dense-packed into the exterior walls of this home

Sloped roof with cavity spray foam insulation, strapping, and gypsum board thermal barrier
Image
Some builders use cantilevered trusses to get full height insulation over the exterior wall.
Image
Southern Energy Homes worked with DOE researchers to develop an efficient way to dense-pack blown fiberglass into the low attics of manufactured homes.
Image
Specially designed roof trusses come with a two-foot by two-foot notch cut next to the center post providing space to install an insulated duct chase inside the home’s conditioned space but above the normal ceiling height.
Image
Image
Spray foam and rigid foam were used under the slab while rigid foam wraps the exterior of the foundation walls.
Image
Spray foam extends down the foundation wall to the slab, which has been retrofitted by adding dimple plastic drainage mat and rigid foam insulation.
Image
Spray foam extends down the inside of the foundation wall to the uninsulated slab; because the wall lacked exterior perimeter drainage, the slab was cut and an interior footing drain was installed.
Image
Image
Spray foam insulates and air-seals the ceiling deck and top plates of this vented attic.
Image
Spray foam insulates the top plates and air seals them to the ventilation baffles before ceiling drywall is installed.
Image
Spray foam insulation extends down the foundation wall to the slab, which has been retrofitted by cutting the slab to install drainage mat against the wall and a new perimeter footing drain, along with rigid foam plastic above the slab.
Image
Spray foam insulation insulates and air seals around plumbing pipes and top plates in the attic.
Image
Spray foam insulation is applied along the underside of the roof deck to provide a conditioned and non-vented attic space for ducts and air handlers.
