    What a mess. Does spray foam provide a vapor barrier?

    I'm sure that insulator is very proud of their work.

    it is actually nicely done, kind of. I have seen some real tacky looking pipe insulation done that way.

    But you won't find it on any of my jobs!!!

    After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

    It looks like that system has some strange new disease from a Horror movie. The invasion of Great Stuff.

    I don't use this word very often, but, that is disgusting

    Too many Ed's in the beginning of this thread (lol). Maybe people named Ed (Edward, Edgel, Eddie, Eddie Spaghetti, etc.) gravitate towards heating???

    I can only imagine having to work on that pioing in the future.
