93" fiberglass insulation

[gogolf0401]

For those of you with a pole building with posts 8' OC... I know there are places that sell 93" wide fiberglass rolls which will fit perfectly between posts at 8' OC. Where can you buy this stuff? How much did you pay?

This place has free shipping on $2500 or more on insulation. See bottom of home page.

Look at local building and ag supply companies. I found plastic faced R-8 8' wide rolls at a local building supply company that also builds pole buildings.

If you are planning on putting up interior wall board of some kind, here is another route entirely.

Hire a spray foam crew to do all the seams and between the posts and the tin. Make sure they get all of the corners well. You only need 1-2" of foam. Then spray "wet" cellulose and cover with wall board. Or hang the wall board and blow in dry cellulose or fiberglass. Probably cheaper and faster than trying to hang such a big piece of fiberglass roll/batt.

One person can hang 14' long batts, with a broken rib.
Ask me how I know.

Spraying "wet" cellulose is EASY, but it really is a 2 or 3 man job. One on the gun, one leveling the wall, and one feeding the hopper and recycling.
