The answer is yes to all of these questions. If you are seeking a higher R-value, we offer two options that will significantly increase your homes energy efficiency.
Polyisocyanurate (foil faced foam) R-6.5 per 1”
The interior log walls are strapped (1x2 furring strips 2’ O.C.)
Cavity is filled with 2x8 sheets of rigid foil faced foam board (Polyisocyanurate)
Final wall covering is applied (usually tongue and groove Cedar)
You can place up to 2” of insulation board
This will add an R-14.5 increase to your log wall
Other advantages to adding log wall insulation:
Time and money are saved by not having to drill the log walls for electrical. A shallow groove can be routered into the log wall for the electrical wires to be recessed behind the insulation board.
Log walls do not have to be sanded.
Roof insulation:
6” of rigid foam (R-32.5) insulation (standard in purlin roof system)
Increased R-value upgrade available (R-6.5 per inch)
