Adding air-sealing and rigid foam insulation at the wall-to-overhanging floor juncture at the outside corner of an existing home
An IR camera image shows gaps around HVAC flue pipes allow conditioned air to leak through blown fiberglass into the attic
Install rigid insulation and finish material below the framing and cavity insulation of a building overhang
Retrofit of cantilevered foundation wall showing details at the inside corner for installing closed-cell spray foam in the wall and overhanging floor
Retrofit of cantilevered wall showing details at the inside corner for installing air sealing and rigid foam insulation in the wall and overhanging floor
Retrofit of cantilevered wall showing details at the outside corner for installing air sealing and rigid foam insulation in the wall and closed-cell spray foam in the overhanging floor
Retrofit of cantilevered wall with beam showing details at the outside corner for installing air sealing and rigid foam insulation in the wall and overhanging floor
Retrofit of cantilevered wall with beam showing details at the outside corner for installing air sealing and rigid foam insulation plus water control membrane in the wall and overhanging floor
Right - Closed-cell spray foam covers the ceiling and joists to insulate and air-seal the ceiling deck.
Right - Foil-faced polyisocyanurate insulating rigid foam sheathing is installed below the floor framing of this house built on piers; however, the seams should be sealed with metal taped and the plumbing elevated and protected.
Right - Foil-faced polyisocyanurate insulating rigid foam sheathing is installed rather than fibrous insulation below the floor framing of this house built on piers
Right - Spray foam insulation air-seals the ceiling-to-drywall seams at the wall top plate.
Right-- IR photo shows how effectively spray foam insulated/air sealed attic kneewall and the floor cavities under kneewall
Spray foam insulation air-seals and insulates the floor above the garage; the joist will be filled with fibrous insulation in this flash-and-batt approach.
The application of intumescent coating/protection layer protects this elevated floor system from below.
The attic kneewall and the open floor cavities under kneewall are both sealed and insulated in one step with spray foam insulation
The ceiling over an unconditioned space is insulated with closed-cell spray foam that fills the ceiling cavities and encapsulates the framing
