Re: [VAC] Restoration Update



Thanks Terry,
The styrofoam insulation worked rather well.  It cuts with a cheap hot
knife from Home Depot, so fitting around plumbing is easy.  I attached
each bay section with a couple of 2" screws.  This resulted in a a 1/2"
clearance between the insulation and the belly skin - good for moisture
drainage.  That's the other advantage - it doesn't sog down with water
and the mice & other vermin don't like it as well as the fiberglass
batts.  It also doesn't pack down and loose it's R value like all the
stuff I removed had done.
