Insulating a Foundation With Flood Openings

Tauntaun_Guts | Posted in Green Building Techniques on

I am climate zone 6 and am planning a poured foundation with flood openings. What can I do to make this foundation and crawlspace tight, given all the openings?

    Hi Taunton Guts (do tell!)

    I’m giving your question a bump. It reminded me of another, similar question about flood vents in this Q&A thread that I think you will find of interest—lots of good comments from our regular readers.
