If I was air sealing another attic I might get a foam kit instead of the cans and the gun but I would not want to try to work those tanks and heater and everything in a crawl space.
The hose was plenty long to maneuver, but also long enough to get tangled. Now that I know the tanks need to be between 75-85 degrees F, next time I will pick a hot summer day, not a cool fall day. The real trick, at least with the kit I had, was if you stop spraying for 30 seconds you have to change the nozzle or it clogs. I only stopped long enough to wipe the tip clean.
