For builders in Kamloops and the surrounding communities, foam is quoted from the plans with the BC Building Code R-values for the climate zone and scheduled between rough-in inspection and drywall. Open-cell foam in 2x6 walls with closed-cell at rims and cantilevers is the common combination.
Renovations that open walls, such as a Sahali split-level getting new windows, are a chance to foam the wall cavity while it is exposed; that is quoted by the wall rather than the whole house.
