Insulation station

floor foam

Hello! Long time no post. I suspect that might happen periodically...
I'm insulating the floor now, which is pretty exciting. Mostly in that it's not screwing metal onto other metal. I've been doing a lot of that up till now :-)

Relative to that, insulation is a piece of cake! (More on the cake part later...)

I have to fill a 5" cavity, which is an odd dimention. So, mix n' match. Bottom layer, rigid foam. On top of that, Roxul. Both seem to do okay with moisture, which is why I chose them for the floor. Couldn't get the straight answer on if Roxul contains formaldehyde... I'm keeping it confined to the floor, where it will be fairly well sealed in.

caulking

 In some spots there's a gap between the edge of the flashing and the trailer frame, so I made patches and caulked them together:

 Here's the poofy Roxul insulation:

Insucake!

It's so easy to cut this stuff, and it makes me imagine that I'm cutting a big sponge cake.
