Insulating Pine County
Pine County is the one county we serve in Climate Zone 7, Minnesota's coldest energy code zone, so the code requirements and the stakes are both higher. Condensation, frost in attics and frozen pipes are all more likely when the winter is longer and colder.
Much of the work here is rural: barndominiums and shops on large parcels, hunting and lake cabins being turned into year-round homes, and older farmhouses that need their attics and walls brought up to modern levels.
Common projects in Pine County
- Barndominiums and shops on rural parcels

Code note · Climate Zone 7
Pine County is in Climate Zone 7, so the Minnesota Energy Code requirements are the strictest in our service area. We size every insulation plan here for Zone 7.
FAQ
Pine County questions
Is Pine County's energy code different from the Twin Cities?
Yes. Pine County is in Climate Zone 7, while the rest of our Minnesota service area is in Zone 6A. Zone 7 has its own requirements, and we plan insulation for new homes and barndominiums in Pine County to meet them.
Can you insulate a cabin so it can be used year-round?
Yes. Cabin conversions usually need the floor or crawl space, walls and roof all addressed, along with careful air sealing. Spray foam is often the best fit for crawl spaces and vaulted cabin ceilings. We'll look at the cabin in person and lay out a plan.
