This is a link someone gave in the archives. This is what they used to replace the foam on the heater flaps: http://www.homedepot.ca/product/adhesive-foam-tape/941505 (in case that link dies over the years, here are some details that might help someone search it out: TAGO Adhesive Foam Tape Model: TA78537 | Store SKU: 1000124257 ) On the right rail on that page there are several references to foam tape that is explicitly advertised as closed-cell (e.g. http://www.homedepot.ca/product/closed-cell-foam-tape-self-adhesive-weatherstripping/941502 TAGO Closed-Cell Foam Tape Self-Adhesive Weatherstripping Model: TA78626 | Internet/Cat: 941502 | Store SKU: 1000113273 ) Is the difference just that one is porous like a natural sponge and one is formed of a bunch of closed bubbles stuck together? I saw a lot of recommendations that you use "open-cell foam", so I guess I'm wondering if that's the "default foam" :). mike
