  1 to 2 inches of closed, then open. &nbsp;The closed is a positive vapor barrier &nbsp;(and higher R value per inch) &nbsp;It comes out essentially the same cost per R value of open vs closed. &nbsp;You can get the best of both.<br><br>I did &nbsp;2 inches closed then 4 open. &nbsp;My house is rated for 150 mph wind.

  We spray foamed our new build in SC. Interior humidity has been an issue. I would add a while home dehumidifier while everything is still easily accessible.

  Just had the current remodel spray foamed and attic encapsulated. Because I chose to move all hvac to the attic from crawl space. Also because of vaulted ceiling needing the most R value as possible. I did have one small area that delaminated from roof decking and cause some condensation.

  I have used close Cell before and if you’re not careful, it will actually warp most building materials as it expands. Everything looks great ! Merry Christmas and happy new year, God bless you guys stay safe

  Open cell requires a vapor barrier. Close cell seals. Open cell has to be thicker to achieve same R value.

  I&apos;ve been contemplating whether to use open cell or closed cell. Thanks for the informative video. I now have my answer. House is coming along nicely. Good luck. God Bless.
