Small Firestopping job of creating a smoke and fire seal on the top of a dimising wall in a strip mall. We stuffed the flutes(pockets) with Hilti mineral wool and sealed them up by spraying Hilti CP672 firespray over top of them.

Over a course of 3 days and 2 complete passes/lifts we installed 3 1/2" (R24) of spray foam into all of the exterior wall cavities of this new shop being constructed. The weather had just turned and was getting cold at night so the building owner had rented a herman nelson heater to keep the shop warm at night to prevent and thermal cracking of the new foam.

One of our customers was in the process of building a large addition onto a house and wanted us to insulate the large crawlspace that was underneith it. We sprayed 3" (R21) of Walltite Eco V3 onto the perimeter concrete foundation walls and into the joist end cavities. This insures a nice and tight insulation envelope free from moisture, rodents and bugs! And as this is not a habitied space, no thermal barrier was required over top of the spray foam.

We were contracted out to complete the spray foam insulation and fireproofing on this commercial project at the site of the old Winnipeg Arena. A tight completion date prompted us and all of the other trades to work together in order to efficiently get the job done.

This job for Manitoba Hysro consisted of fireproofing various columns at their new High Voltage Test Facility in Winnipeg, Manitoba. We used an akrylic intumescent fireprooring paint as the columns were exposed and needed to have a nice finish on them. The building was in full working operation while we did our work so safety was the number one priority. The job took roughly 3 weeks to complete as there was alot of prep involved.

We sprayed this cabin back in October of 2011. We installed 7" (R49) of foam onto all of the cathedral ceiling areas, 5" (R35) of foam into al the exterior wall cavities,4" (R28) of foam onto the foundation walls in the crawlspace, and 2" of foam onto all of the flat attic floors then topped up with loose fill fibreglass insulation. This cabic should be the most efficient one on the lake when completed in 2012!

We spayed the exterior walls of this foundation with 3" of foam. The contractor then applied his lath and stucco over the foam. We only sprayed the exposed portion of the foundation as the whole basement was sprayed from the inside.
