Yup, I will take some more pics tomorrow. It has been really busy this summer so things have been a bit slow on the home front.

Here are a couple more pics. On the right, I took off some siding to find no insulation at all on the addition wall and the air just blew right under the floor boards. No wonder she was cold in her office above. I foamed everything up tight and will but a new wall on from the outside. The profile is made in white trim.

Honestly, I have no idea until I go through a season but as it is a brick house which are known to be quite leaky, I suspect at least the ACH will improve. I have changed some windows as well so determining the effect of the insulation may be hard.
