Stiles, I also used the expanding foam spray insulation in the openings in the basement storage area and also in every opening in the underbelly.
As for some members recommending that not be done -- I'm not sure but that might be from a comment I made wondering if my caulking (with the foam) the opening through which the low point drains come through the bellypan might have contributed to the freezing problems by not allowing heat from the belly to exit at that point and keep the low point drains from freezing. That was just a thought, not a known fact.
I also insulated very exposed water pipe in the basement as syplace did. I packed the outside shower area with insulation, too, but left the shower head in place since we do occasionally use it.
