[A/S] Re: Urethane Foam Insulation Preventing "shedding" amd other thoughts

["Elsbeth" <elsbeth@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi Oliver,

The foam that we have bene looking at offers approximately an R value 
of 35-40 and is quite stiff.  it's a spray on type that you can only 
get applied by a certified professional so we wouldn't be doing that 
job ourselves.  they can spray it on and this stuff doesn't expand.  
it should offer a lot of structural support too!

Thanks for the suggestion of possibly reinforcing the insulation with 
some sort of fabric.  something to offer a barrier between the ribs 
and the foam.

i will also have to look into the R-values offered by a paper form of 
insulation...good idea... :)

yeah, we are planning on erecting some sort of shelter around the 
trailer once we are settled in our winter location.  we are also 
planning on piling snow around the outer walls too to help insulate 
and wind block!

Thanks for the ideas!
Elsbeth and Regan
