| we have a small crawl space of around 22x8 with a varied depth of 6" to 18".
It's in the south end of the house and is quite cold in winter. I'm thinking about blow in cellulose or Cementitious foam/Air Krete. The floor is old hardwood that I'm quite reluctant to pull up to build a "contained" space in between the joists. Has anyone any ideas for a very partial pull up that might allow the building of a such a "contained" space for the Air Krete or cellulose to fill? |

| Instead of trying to fill in all that space, consider insulating from the outside with 2 ins. of XPS or 4 ins. of EPS foam boards with a protective covering above-grade. First, assuming you can at least get some access, cover the soil in the crawlspace with a min. 6 mil poly. Don't get stuck! |
