Anyone had any experience with this?

We are installing a spray-on air-barrier within our building thermal envelope.  We'd like to ensure proper installation and some form of verification that it is working.

For the basic wall areas, it seems straight forward: the spray-on air-barrier is continuous and complete.

For other areas (penetrations, junctions, openings, etc), it seems harder to identify roles and responsibilities for verification of a continuous barrier.

Anyone had experience with this?

John
