“When we bought the cottage, it was partially insulated, but not to a high degree, because it wasn’t really winterized,” said Bill Luffman, who has owned a cottage in Muskoka, Ontario with his wife Linda for about 16 years. “For under our floor, we looked at a number of different types of insulation – batt insulation and board insulation – but we found they required a lot of labor and weren’t suited to being exposed to the elements. It had to be something that was resilient.”
Linda Luffman added, “In our cottage, like many cottages, we tend to get mice and some insects. Anything that would help prevent that was also an important consideration. Spray foam was by far the best choice.”
