A wonderful friend gave camp some money to seal up the water plant better. The wind blows all the heat right out in the winter months. Currently the walls have a R-13 fiberglass insulation, but we added another R-16 with this insulation. It is a radiant barrier and a vapor barrier, which is good because the high humidity is damaging to the fiberglass. Now the water plant has R-29 on the walls!

Sealing it all up
In Longs Peak today we put spray foam on the walls in the crawl space. Now we have a R-16-20 insulation and an airtight seal. We will save money and Jesse and his family can stay warmer!!
Here is a cool link to see someone using it. Spray Foam in use
This is the best insulation for us to use, and we need a lot more!! *hint hint* We have a lot of work in the Dining Hall, Cabins 7 & 8, and Autumn still to do! This link will take you directly to the correct page if you would like to donate some!

Excellent insulation, but you don't want to get it on you!

Longs Peak Sealing
Jordan got the last spot on Longs Peak cabin sealed up! Now we will not have the problem of animals getting under it, or the wind blowing under it and causing it to be uncomfortable in the cabin We will also see a savings in the cost of heating.
