Construction Progress: Week of Apr 8

Plagued by uncooperative weather this week. The ELEMENT Modules were kept inside all week which means the rest of the insulation would need to be put on hold yet again. Tuesday the 17th should hold the completion of the insulation. Until then, the build team will be focusing on touching up details. These include making sure outlets, plumbing lines, roof drains, and HVAC work is properly sealed and in place. As mentioned in the entry "Construction Techniques: Insulation" one of the most beneficial attributes of foam insulation is its ability to resist air movement. Therefore, properly sealing outlets, plumbing lines, conduit, and all other elements are of extreme inportance in order to get the maxium potential performance out of the insulation.
