What is the temperature range? Can I apply outside at 40 degress F.?

My only experience with this particular type of "Great Stuff" is from indoor use. It seems to be almost exactly the same as the other 3 or 4 types of "Great Stuff" which I have used outside when it was below freezing, the colder weather only slowed the flow from the can a little bit. If you are using it outside be aware of wet conditions as water makes the foam cure up hard much faster. I hope that helps, good luck. And if you haven't had experience with expanding foam sealants the stuff is super sticky and extremely hard to remove from clothing and skin.

I did mine in the summer, but I think I remember the instructions say above 55 or maybe between 55 and 85 degrees. I would not try below 55 in any case.

We use it in a 15x30 with vaulted ceilings (imagine an attic ceiling that's sloped up to 20'), and it gets up to 71-degrees when it's 40-degrees outside. Even on freezing nights, it takes the chill off and can raise the temp of the room to 68-degrees.

When used indoors the ambient temperature in the basement should be above 40 degrees. If your sealing from the outside in, outdoor temps must be above the freezing mark.

Not sure, I live in Texas. I believe the lowest temperature was around 34F and it worked perfectly fine.

It says on the product page "Temperature range: Freeze - 40 degrees centigrade below zero, Heat - 230 degrees centigrade"

Yes, but not for extremes: Operating Temperature 0 - 40 C (32 - 104 F) Humidity Max. 85% non-condensing

The critical temperature is around 150 F. Doesn't matter how you get there. I use a heat lamp.

The temperature range on the unit is TOTALLY dependent on the ambient temperature. The key point is that the unit can only cool to a maximum differential (ambient to internal) of 35 degrees. So, if the ambient is 75 degrees, it could conceivably cool to 45 degrees. My unit has proven that actual case. However, if the ambient is 86 degrees, the unit will only cool to 51 degrees. I have also seen that condition with my unit.

Hello, I'm also in Chicago as well. I used this product during the fall for several basement foundation cracks when temperature was still in the 60's. I was able to contact the manufacturer to order additional parts and pieces. They were very helpful and should be able inform you of the exact product temperature range. The product worked extremely well to date. No leaks.

We recommend using this product when temperatures are 40 degrees or above. Microbes are inactive in colder temperatures.

40 deg F for away settings. You can also set the heat to off. The temperature range is 50 - 90 deg F.

I live in Florida and have no problem with the inks, but I can not speak for temp below 40 degrees.

It will go well below 40 degrees, in fact, I had set at at the coldest setting and the cans were freezing and bursting openSo I backed it off to about 3/4 of the way and they were still freezing, it does a good job of keeping things cold

Temp goes up to 140 - with about a half hour to 40 minutes to reach max temp.

I've taken it up to 450 degrees without any problems. I'm sure you can take it to a higher temperate. Great product.

It recommends the surface be 40 degrees or warmer when installing. If it's not, try warming it up with a hair dryer or heat gun.
