How much is the price of your baby wells cargo - I bet $1499 on sale

The insulation place that spray foamed my bus conversion many years ago just had the same set up as this available today:

That looks like the cats meow. Too bad they wont do it at the factory.

A good foam setup can cost up to $50,000 - I was just looking at them a few days ago
I don't think you would put that in your trailer factory
To just use it once in a blue moon

$50,000 dollars??? OK.

I just found out there's gonna be about 100 or so blue moons in 2014 too!

Prem, Howdy;

So ... I'm taking it that the spray in closed-cell foam is the best way
to go to prevent the mold and mildew from growing ?????

Using your tiger foam from above


I just figured it out, to do my trailer 3" thick would require 9.5 of the $330
Foam kits or just for foam $3,300
I spent a little less then $1,000 on my blue board.

Now at only 1" thick it would cost $1,100 for a 7 x18 trailer material only tiger foam

Can't really See anybody on this form spend that kinda $$$$
Not when they need it goingfishing

[Prem]

Prices vary and no big equipment is needed for our application. Spraying it on a very hot day also brings the cost and quantity needed down. It expands so much on a 100* day versus a 75* day. When I used 2-part, pour-in polyurethane (closed cell) foam on the metal floor of my jumbo teardrop, it expanded from 1/4 inch of liquid to 2-3 inches thick in 5 minutes. It was a 90* day and I left the two cans in the sun all afternoon...plus it was 10 years old...left over from doing the bow and stern in my 26' boat.

Google: Spray foam insulation per square foot and you'll get some of these:

Figure the cost of spray foam at 3-5X more than the cost of fiberglass insulation.

Spray foam insulation in Houston, Texas should run between $0.35 and $0.40 per board foot, or between $1.20 and $1.60 per square foot of 2x4 wall space.

I did the foam insulation in my exterior walls and in the rafters. The cost was a premium of about $7k over fiberglas insulation...I'm in Memphis. My house is 4800 SF

I just priced out 3" of Spray On Foam. The price installed is $2.60/sq. ft. Everyone always talks about saving and paying back through your energy bill savings. Here is the math for my site: 200' of wall 12' tall = 2,400 sq. ft. @ $2.60/sq. ft. This amounts to $6,240 for 3" spray on foam with an R value of approximately 20-21.

Cargo trailers are tiny compared to large houses, so insulation cost is a fraction.

$40 - 50K gets you started with this puppy.
would think you could easily knock out 30,000 to 50,000 sq ft per day.


Prem

if your gonna be in the insulation business, you may as well have the best.
( Foam equipment & foam costs mega bucks - thats why 95% do cellulose & fiberglass )


OR YOUR GONNA GET YOUR BUTT KICKED by the competition
been there & done the butt kicken in Jimmy Carters time
never had the money for a nice foam set up like Greyco
My truck - Blower & material load was almost $22,000 per rig in 1980 - for cellulose
I made money at .19 a sq ft for R19 cellulose - .22 for fiberglass -
those were the good old days EASY MONEY !!!
