Insulating the Walls
Previous		Next
February 24, 2023 We decided to use a product called Icynene to insulate the walls. This is about twice the price of fiberglass insulation but it provides a better effective R-value and it also provides some sound insulation. This picture shows the Icynene being applied to one of the kitchen walls.
