Insulation!

When I got home yesterday the house was insulated. Since the insulation is still exposed (we did cellulose and spray foam, with a little batting in the closet) for now, sound just dives into the walls and gets lost. It’s a very weird feeling when one is used to the hyper-echo of stud walls and plywood.

This development means we could turn the radiant heat in in the slab up downstairs without spending a fortune, but now it’s spring and we don’t need to 🤪. Somewhere I have a photo of the balcony in the snow showing exactly where we were uninsulated and losing the heat before. I’ll track it down.

Next up, drywall in a couple of weeks!
