Foam and thickness.
| Foam | Where it goes | Typical thickness | R-value per inch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Open cell | On OSB or a proper liner. Never on bare metal. | 4 in + | R-3.8 to 4.2 |
| Closed cell | Directly on metal or wood. A coating over it is strongly recommended. | 2 in + | R-7.6 to 8.1 |
R-value measures how well insulation holds back heat. Higher is better. Closed cell is rigid and also blocks moisture; open cell is softer and dampens sound. Ranges are from Universal Polymers (UPC) data sheets, tested at 1 inch. We choose the foam for each job. See the data sheets

Yes. Lawrence is 22.2 miles from our base in Anderson, and pole barns is one of the twenty things we spray. That is a routine trip for us, on jobs of any size. Tell us about the building and we'll quote it.

Marion County is in climate zone 5, the colder of the two zones Indiana spans. We spray both open cell (R-3.8 to 4.2 per inch) and closed cell (R-7.6 to 8.1 per inch), and which one a barn needs depends on moisture and what the foam is going on. We tell you when we quote.
