Photo Album: Making a More Comfortable Basement in East Alton, IL
All basements are cold because they are underground, but if it's especially cold in the winter and it seems like no heat is getting down there, then there might be an air leakage problem. The best way to combat that problem is to seal up all those spaces no matter how big or small.
Zero Insulation
When there is no insulation or no space for insulation air can easily seep through.
Sealing Wall Spaces
Once the spray foam is in place, no air will be able to penetrate that space.
Foam Insulation in the Crawl Space
Foam in the crawl space keeps air from leaking out and keeps insects from sneaking in.
