Wine Cellar Floor Insulation

Yes, it looks just like the walls look. The foam insulation does dry solid, but it is full of tiny air pockets, so you don’t want to walk on it, since you will likely compress the air pockets and lower the insulation value. That’s why we applied the plywood floor as soon as possible:

Yes, this picture also shows the drywall on the walls, but that’s the subject of my next post.
