Foamly Posted: Dec 06, 2016 02:48 AM	Digesters insulation thickness and foam density. We have been requested to quote for digesters insulation. We are wondering about the CC foam density to choose and about the thickness of the insulation on the sides + external roof of the ciment tank. Thanks,

I would use a roofing foam 3 lb density with a coating over it specifically designed for SPF. Ask your supplier for assistance. They probably have someone who has insulated digester tanks before. Contact me at masonknowles@aol.com for more information.
