Before
An area in a home that can be overlooked for complete insulation coverage is the header on top of the basement walls. When it is not properly sealed with spray foam insulation, moisture can seep in and hot conditioned air can seep out.
After
Advanced Basement Systems applied 3” of 2lb closed-cell spray foam which adds R-18 insulation and a continuous vapour barrier to the header through the basement. When using Spray foam in an area that contains a combustion burning appliance (HVAC/Water Heater), a thermal barrier is required by code. In this case that was met with a paint-based coating called DC 315 applied over the spray foam.
