The foambeak is a canned foam insulation nozzle that attaches to your off-the-shelf can of GREAT STUFF* gap and crack foam. This nozzle will allow you to apply foam (from the can) to any surface, including vertical and overhead surfaces. You can expect to get about 3.5 sqft of coverage from the average 16oz can of GREAT STUFF* foam. Our Foam Beaks are made in the USA out of ABS plastic, so they are tough and durable. (ABS plastic is the same plastic that old 70’s and 80’s telephones were made out of.) Each item is manually inspected and machined to ensure proper hole size.
The foambeak works great when you want to add more foam insulation to your hot tub, Jacuzzi or spa. We have used these to insulate the back-side of a bathtub before installation (takes approximately 4-5 cans to cover the back-side of an average size bathtub).
Use the foambeak to insulate just about anywhere you wish. Have a cold attic access panel? Or how about that drum that you use at parties to keep a keg cold? The uses are endless!
*We are in no way affiliated with the makers of the canned foam, nor do we sell or distribute the canned foam. You must supply your own cans of GREAT STUFF gap and crack foam.
These foambeak's will fit the following:
Great Stuff*: with 5.05mm OD (small) straw. This is the straw that comes with the most popular cans at your big box stores. Some modification is required with their new RED straw with the quick stop valve. Simply cut the valve off and then install the FoamBeak.
Touch-n-Foam*: with 5.05mm OD (small) straw. This is the straw that comes with the most popular cans at your big box stores

Ended up not needing them. But they do work well.
This was a lot of fun and Joe was super helpful. I hit a few bumps along the way and Joe was patient and knowledgeable, even before I bought the plans and was asking about chiller advice.
The plans are super detailed and the linked shopping list is a game changer. Some of the steps (like cutting the rigid insulation) took longer than the plans said, but this was my biggest project yet so I think that's more of a "me" issue.
My cold plunge turned out really well and I have been so proud showing it off to people. I would definitely recommend this to anyone, regardless of skill level. You'll learn a lot and be left with something to be proud of.
Great flow compared to the pump I was using. Thx
Joe has clearly designed his plans for use by folks of various skill levels. If YOU plan up time and THEN take your time following Joe's instructions, you'll end up like me with a phenomenal product...and bragging rights.
Be advised with ANY project, there are going to be setbacks, complications and mistakes. I just took a pause, emailed Joe and moved forward accordingly.
It's very clear Joe has put substantial thought and engineering into his plans.
The plans (especially shopping list) are INCREDIBLY thorough.
Most people could probably figure out their plumbing setup eventually, but if you're like me—short on time and not keen on multiple store trips—this plan is a game-changer. I used the provided shopping list for online pickups and was able to complete my setup in just two 1.5-hour evening sessions.
TIP:
Take your time assembling—getting PVC cement on your unions will cause problems.
Installing the flex spa hose on the venturi is trickier than it looks. Use hot enough water, or you’ll struggle.
Thanks, DIY! This made the process so much smoother.
I was hesitant to purchase plans but so glad I did. It gave me complete shopping list, diagrams with cutoff sheets. It saves you tons of time and the videos are my favorite part so I can visualize the final product. Well worth it.
