Here is the spray foam in the rafters. We still need to get gyp up on the knee wall to the right so they can come back and foam the back side of that wall.
Foam in the clerestory.
Here are the speaker boxes. You can see how the foam fills up around them good and even comes out of the hole with the wire. This will allow me to cut in the speakers later easily without any air leaks in my walls.
This is the box cut into the opposite wall. They foamed the back side of this wall (garage truss wall over the kitchen). Again, you can see how the foam fills every tiny hole.
I went around and foamed all of the electrical boxes in place as well as the wires. The foam later got shaved off flush with the ICF.
Here is the attic seal. As you can see, I skipped ahead some to after the gyp was hung here in the pictures. They start by installing the attic baffles. They put a small piece of batt in there to hold it in place. They then foam from the ceiling up, over the top plates and over the baffle. This holds it to the roof and prevents any air wind washing the blown insulation.
A view along a top of a wall. They foam all wall connections, electrical boxes, pipes, etc.
I found a small spot they missed. I got filled it with a shot of can foam.
Here is one of the speaker boxes from above. They foamed around the entire box.
This is above the kitchen looking at the back side of the truss wall where they foamed 7" of open cell on that wall. I had them go over the truss ends to create a thermal break at that wall since it does not have the XPS on the cold side like the others do.
Here is the below view of the kitchen. You can see how the foam fills in down around the gaps in the ceiling. This was shaved flush before the drywall was finished.
Foam filling in around electrical penetrations.
Found one they missed. They actually shot it, but it didn't fill all of the sides. Again, I gave it a shot of can foam and problem solved.
