Insulating a Small Farm Town

Spray Foam Insulation in Poseyville serves a small farm town in northern Posey County. Poseyville was surveyed in 1840 as Palestine, along the New Harmony-Princeton coach line, and took the name Poseyville when it got its first post office in 1843. The Bozeman-Waters National Bank building was listed on the National Register in 1987. The town had 966 residents in 2020 and covers about two-thirds of a square mile.

Older homes

Many Poseyville homes are older frame houses with shallow attics and crawl spaces or basements. Sealing the attic, blowing in loose fill, foaming the rim joist and dealing with damp crawl spaces usually makes the biggest difference.

Farm buildings

The country around Poseyville is farmland, and pole barns, equipment sheds and shops are everywhere. Closed-cell foam on the steel stops condensation dripping on equipment and grain, and makes a shop heatable.

Climate

Poseyville has a humid subtropical climate with hot, humid summers and mild to cool winters, so crawl spaces can stay damp in summer and floors get cold in winter.

Costs

HomeGuide lists closed-cell foam at $3.00 to $5.00 per square foot and crawl space encapsulation at $3 to $10 per square foot nationally. The written estimate is your price.

Coach-line town

Poseyville was laid out along the New Harmony-Princeton coach line, and its center is compact, with many houses close to the street on small lots. Older frame homes like these often have open wall cavities that connect to the attic. Blocking those cavities at the attic floor with foam, then blowing in loose fill, cuts drafts noticeably.
