This blog is dedicated to our little slice of heaven located in Castle Valley, Utah. Guarded by the towering red cliffs of Porcupine Rim, the glowing cheatgrass of the flatlands, and the watchful eye of the Pope and Nuns.

Interior Insulation
We finally got the insualation in for the cabin walls! The walls are all 2x6 construction which allow for additional insulation. In order to maximize the efficiency of the the insulation, we went with 1" closed cell sprayed in polyurethan foam for all the interior walls. After the foam was sprayed in, they filled the rest of the wall cavity with R-19 batten insulation for a total insulation factor of R-33. The ceiling has 2" sprayed in foam with batten insulation for a total insulation factor of R-43. I think it looks pretty good. You can definitely feel the difference in space with the walls filled in, but the rooms still seem spacious enough.
