Claims20
A robotic device comprising a spray nozzle, wherein the spray nozzle is coupled to a hose that is coupled to a source of thermally insulating material, wherein the spray nozzle of the robotic device sprays at least one layer of thermally insulating material onto an underside of a suspended floor of a building, wherein the thermally insulating material forms an insulative covering, wherein an underfloor cavity comprises a space between the underside of the suspended floor and a ground surface, wherein the source of the thermally insulating material is located outside the underfloor cavity, and wherein the robotic device is able to be introduced into the underfloor cavity and remotely operated.
