Spray Foam Insulation in Kawkawlin Township, MI

Spray Foam Insulation in Kawkawlin Township covers beach homes on Saginaw Bay and rural houses inland. The township borders the bay, with the Kawkawlin River near its southern edge, and 9.0 of its 41.5 square miles are water. Its name comes from the Ojibwe "ogaakaaning," meaning place of pike.

Communities

Brissette Beach, Linwood, Linwood Beach and Three Churches Corner lie in the township. The community of Kawkawlin itself is just outside, in Monitor Township.

Population

The township had 4,419 residents in 2020, down from 4,848 in 2010.

Beach homes

Homes and cottages along Linwood Beach and Brissette Beach face wind and damp air off the bay. Closed-cell foam on crawl space walls and rims, or under floors over open crawl spaces, keeps them drier and warmer.

Rural homes

Farther inland, farmhouses need attic sealing and depth, rim foam and sometimes wall filling. Pole barns get closed-cell foam on the steel.

Zone 5

Bay County is in Climate Zone 5A, with an attic target of R-60 for an empty attic.

Older shoreline homes

Some homes along the bay in Linwood Beach and Brissette Beach have been rebuilt and enlarged over the years, and each addition can have its own foundation and attic. We trace every section, foam the rims and crawl space walls where they are exposed, and seal each attic separately, so the coldest rooms get fixed first.

Farmhouses and barns inland

Inland from the shore, older farmhouses usually need attic depth and rim foam, and steel barns get closed-cell foam to stop condensation.
