You guys did a great job! Especially for not using spray foam before. I run an insulation company for a living. We use these kits quite a bit. These are the same kits that professionals use. Just a few tips. PPE - always wear a full face mask and never take your mask off inside the room or building you are spraying. Also, the two chemicals mix and form an exothermic chemical reaction. It uses the heat to expand which gives you your depth an R value. You should be spraying in about 1” passes meaning you spray enough foam that it expands to 1”. If you spray too thin it won’t expand correctly. You can also use acetone (or Great Stuff cleaner) to clean the gun and clean out the tips so you can reuse them. Just a few tips.

[@TheTrev4477]

Very helpful, thank you 👍

[@wesrobinson7366]

This guys knows his stuff. I have done a lot of this spray myself. you have to get the hang of spraying slower to get it to expand right. You could put down 2.5 inches in your wall with one pass. Also yes face mask is a must.

Was it cost efficient to spray foam vs standard insulation an area this size? Was shocked at how expensive the kits are

[@priestesslucy]

@@MtnXfreeride for real. I legit jaw dropped when I heard the price lol

[@NAVY_NFO]

Great job! This is a near-perfect DIY video. No BS. No "creative" editing. Just the honest truth. Good luck on your build, brother!

[@kimiikins]

Just so you know, when you're standing inside without a mask even though you're not spraying it, those aerosolized droplets can still enter your respiratory system as small particles. Please take care of yourself. YOu might think you're strong but you could pay the price later in life. You showed an example of how it drifted outside onto your power banks. It's the same concept for your lungs! You're doing a super job with your shed to home too.

[@SagebrushRambles]

Not only that but NO ONE was wearing eye protection. Freaking foolish.

[@TheGreatWhiteHope209]

@@SagebrushRambles almost as foolish as caring about what someone else does that has zero impact on you.

[@xantishayde-walker4593]

@@TheGreatWhiteHope209 Yeah, so foolish to care about another human's well being. How absurd.

[@johnuppole]

Yeah, the vapors released from the reaction between the two chemicals can literally be absorbed by your eyeballs. You're supposed to wear a full face respirator when spraying the stuff. It's a great product when cured completely, BUT it's nasty when it's curing...

[@SegoMan]

@@johnuppole once the reaction takes place in the alveoli in the lungs it will never leave, I know of a painter who's life changed overnight because he did not want to wear a respirator while spraying 2 part epoxies. I saw no agitation of the tanks those chemicals need mixed properly. Doing the ceiling first would give you more pressure. Not wearing all the safety gear is your choice however when you post a video on it it sends the wrong message to the rest of the crowd.

[@rimc8783]

As a painter of 30 years it kills me to see you guys spray this product side to side instead of up and down. With these 16 inch stud separation you could spray more faster and more even coat.

[@patrickholcomb9628]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE & the time you took to put this video together!

[@randyleonard7112]

Spray insulation is great, but not to be a bummer, but when that stuff gets air borne and you possibly get in your lungs can expand causing problems later, please be safe.

[@kaykinnan6560]

[@MarkRVillano]

If you can rent or borrow one; a 6 foot Baker style rolling scaffold is the way to go for doing all of the overhead work. Easy to transport and set-up, they are also relatively inexpensive, and come in handy for a wide variety of indoor and outdoor building projects. And in a lot of instances, they are also safer to use than ladders, (as long as you don't accidently step off of it and land on your face).

[@drainpluggarage]

One tip I saw some guys do on RR Builders, is they taped the edge of the studs. After it's all said and done, just peel the tape off. Crisp clean edges for drywalling.

Way to go, Jared. It was well worth the wait to see the progress. Props to Jason for his help.

[@ladybeginning5515]

Nice job you made it look easy. ♥️🐘😊

[@UKCG_2]

I recommend looking up the term "flash and batt". Instead of adding additional layers of foam, you treat the first layer as an air/moisture barrier (and initial insulation) and add an additional layer of R13 pink insulation or Rockwool) on top. It gives you the benefit of spray foam without breaking the bank. Cheers.

[@billbray5995]

This is the correct process to take now, the foam sprayed has squat for insulation value, just a air infiltration stopper. Have to add insulation to get the r value needed or buy a BUNCH more foam

[@dper1112]

​@@billbray5995 Well that's not true at all. Spray foam is insulation. It insulates as well or far better than fiberglass, depending on what kind you use. Actually, even when the R value is similar, spray foam performs a lot better because installing fiberglass properly is very difficult.

[@netdude]

Absolutely right. Spray foam is about R7 per inch. Most cost effective solution is flash and batt as you've mentioned. Consider what Jared just did... he said there's about 2 inches of foam... that's R14 for $2000. Seriously, just flash it all with foam which would air seal everything... then use batt insulation.

[@dper1112]

@Robert Swaine It all depends on your goals, right? If heating and cooling is cheap, then fiberglass is great. On the other hand, energy prices are rising. More expensive options that insulate better will pay for themselves over time. If you're planning to live in a place for a few decades, expensive insulation might be nice. If you're building and you can choose your own wall thickness and insulation package, you probably want to sit down with a spread sheet, punch some numbers, and see what makes sense. One advantage of a small house is that even expensive insulation might not break the bank.

[@SegoMan]

@@dper1112 Energy is going to go through the roof this winter thanks to Brandon & company. Insulation has the highest investment $$ return out there

Thank you for the video and you feedback. Spray foam adds additional stable strength to the building but didn’t realize there were other differences to the fiberglass-type insulation. I couldn't find the R value of this kit?

I went with Rockwool. All other insulation catches fire and allows it to spread, especially foam. I might be paranoid, but I don't want to take the risk. Fun video, thanks.

Sprayfoam actually doesn't burn very well. It seals better than any other insulation and requires no vapor barrier saving labor and materials

@@mrmotofylook it up. Spray foam is very flammable even at relatively moderate temperatures. Cured foam, not uncured.

Rock wool is the best but it has some drawbacks. It’s very heavy (soundproof too) and it’s downright nasty to install.

The studs are, the wall coverings are, the paints are, the floors are, the furnishings are, the siding is, the vapor/moisture barriers are, the cabinets are, all the plastic water lines/fittings are...saying an insulation is better cuz it's less flammable is laughable. It's less flammable than some others, but so what. Most people will NEVER have a house fire or a situation where it's ever an issue. When one figures ALL factors in sprayfoam is one of the best options and has many features that put it ahead of the other options and behind in some.

Wow you did that fast and it looks goooood xx

[@PhotonHerald]

If you ever do this in the future, start a stud bay by spraying up both sides of the bay. Then fill the center. This generally results in better air sealing at the stud and prevents it from pulling back from the stud (and you can see in some of the close-ups). Otherwise, nice efficient use of the foam.

When insulating a wall, installers of open-cell spray foam usually fill the stud bays completely. Once the foam has cured, the excess foam is trimmed back flush with the studs.
