Spray foam is the only thing that will give you a solid barrier but do not use closed cell and be prepared to pay for it.

I have seen people put just a few inches of foam to seal up the draft then fill the rest with batting. That will save you a lot instead of trying to fill in the full area and the R value will be better than whatever you have now.

You could even order a DIY kit from ebay and take care of all the areas you feel are causing issues then add batting over it.

Why is closed cell so bad again? I'm raised 4ft, now u have me worried...initially I didn't have insulation and my wood floors warped due to humidity, towards Xmas 2010 we sealed the sub floor close cell.

What issues should I look for?
