[QUOTE="John6185, post: 4058332, member: 25679"] I contacted a contractor a few years back regarding home insulation and it was going to be around $6,000 if I remember correctly. They spray the foam on the overhead in the attic (decking, (add $2,000 to remove all the blown in insulation that is already there), then they spray on the attic floor between the beams. What the guy was going to do was build walls around my central furnace (since it isn't one of those high energy savings models) and insulate the walls around the furnace. I expect now that the prices have gone up probably to around $8,000. One contractor said that his electric bill in the heat of summer was around $30.00 per month with spray-in insulation. There is a difference between closed cell and open cell insulation also. I believe the closed cell is better and more costly. And you cannot run additional wires in the walls once the spray is done, you're stuck with what you have. [/QUOTE]
