Spray Foam Insulation in Interlochen, MI

Spray Foam Insulation in Interlochen covers homes and cottages in this community between Duck Lake and Green Lake in Green Lake Township, southwest of Traverse City. The name joins the Latin "inter" with the Scottish Gaelic "lochan," meaning between lakes. Interlochen had 694 residents at the 2020 census, up 19.0% from 583 in 2010.

The arts and the state park

Interlochen Center for the Arts began in 1928 as the National High School Orchestra Camp, founded by Joseph E. Maddy, and grew into a summer camp, an arts boarding school and a public radio station. Michigan bought the Pine Park land in 1917, creating what became Interlochen State Park, the first state park the state organized itself.

Lake homes

Homes and cottages on the two lakes often have crawl spaces and additions built over time. We seal and insulate crawl spaces and rims first, then attics. Year-round homes in the woods around the lakes need the same, plus attic sealing against ice dams.

Rentals for summer programs

Some homes here are rented seasonally. We schedule foam work between rentals so it can cure and air out.

Zone 6

Grand Traverse County is in Climate Zone 6A, with the Department of Energy recommending R-60 for an empty attic.

Woods and shade

Many homes around Interlochen sit under tall pines and hardwoods, where roofs stay shaded and snow lingers into spring. A roof that holds snow that long will show every attic air leak as an ice dam or icicles. Sealing the attic floor and adding depth is usually the first job we suggest.
