[@carriesing]

Critter proof your shed, cabin, or home with reflectix across the floor joists and up the walls about two feet, unless it’s a mobile home then go up all the way.

​@@UrbanToAcresHi! I'm thinking about putting reflexive in my garage from the bottom frame to the top of frame then drywall over that to have my garage fully insulated. No foam spray, no batting, just the radiant barrier. I live in Phoenix, Arizona. Have you any experience or knowledge of this is a good idea? Why or why not please.

What do you think about using 2-3 inches of closed cell spray foam on my ceiling and adding Rockwool under the closed cell spray foam on my ceiling for extra/added insulation???

[@UrbanToAcres]

That is a good question. I have not heard of this method yet, so I wouldn't be able to answer that. I'm sorry. Hopefully someone on this channel will see this comment and be able to provide you with some advice.

Just use the foam at 3 inches and youll be good to go

[@stephaniemulroy2541]

So the big question is, which one are you going with? Ours gets delivered next week! I think we are going with the closed cell spray foam

[@UrbanToAcres]

Woohoo! Congratulations! I will be doing closed cell spray foam on my ceiling for sure. I am still debating whether fiber glass or spray foam in walls. Send pics! We’d love to see updates!

[@stephaniemulroy2541]

@@UrbanToAcres We are doing it on the ceiling and underneath for sure. We will mostly go with the cheaper option for the walls. I have enjoyed all your helpful tips!

[@UrbanToAcres]

@ that sounds like a plan! Thanks for the kind words!

​@@UrbanToAcresyou could also cut and glue foam boards to fit into your stud cavities.

Your frame doesn't even remotely have enough space fro insulation in my area.The vault obvious no snow load, super weak design.cellose is a number on in the R 50 60 range.

Insulate the house on the outside and keep it painted. You will never have that problem.
