Flashing for pressure-treated wood
Contains higher concentrations of copper
Could quickly corrode the critical aluminum flashings, fasteners, and connectors
Use stainless steel or copper to prevent galvanic reaction

Spray-In InsulationGood R-values-up to 6.5
per inch-do an exceptionally good job of air sealing
Best product to stop air movement through walls
Available in both low-density, open-cell and high-density, closed-cell varieties
Applied with specialized spray equipment
Low-density foams are more vapor permeable than high-density foams, but they both form extremely effective air barriers
