There is a 1 ½” space from the face of the insulation to the inside of the studs leaving very good and easy access for your electrician to run wire without disturbing the insulation. The True Panel System is extremely strong, energy efficient and cost effective, saving you time, money and labor, but best of all, they are extremely efficient at keeping the heat either in or out. They afford less fossil fuel use, hence living green is effortless.

As far as your barn floor goes, I think you'll be okay with the cement floor once the barn is heated, as we experienced this very same thing with slightly smaller square footage. Once the building is well sealed and the heat is on, your moisture issue should go away. It absolutely did in our case. Hope this helps and good luck with your project! BeamBabe Hi Steve,

Or If I heat barn to a certain temp. it would probably go away? I enjoy looking at all your project's, I still have my Grandfather's 52" saw blade that he started to straightened before passing away at the dear age of 92. He built Small Saw Mill's from the Ozark's in Missouri all the way to Palmer,Alaska years ago. He would also Install new teeth and straightened the blades on various sizes. Any way, Thanks for your Beautiful Barns.....Steve I built a Mentor Barn 4 years ago to Store my 1967 Pontiac GTO’s, now that I’m almost done with those project’s, I’m deciding to turn into a home.It’s 42′ X 42′, two stories, concrete slap with almost 60 yards of concrete for the floor, my question is the floor sweat’s during the year, what is the best way to solve that?

Have you considered opening up an account with pinterest.com? It's a free virtual pin board social media site. Basically you pin your favorite images which you can link back to your blog. It's fun (and unfortunately addictive) and you would get a lot of followers. No worries, I'm not affiliated with them, although it might sound like it. I opened up my account to use it as a vision board for a book I'm writing but there are so many other uses for it... Thanks for feeding into my dreams! My hope is to someday build one of these, too!
