Abstract
An electrical box includes a top side wall, a right side wall, a bottom side wall, a left side wall, and a rear side wall. At least one check valve is disposed through at least one of the top side wall, the right side wall, the bottom side wall, the left side wall, or the rear side wall. The check valve defines a central opening through which insulation may be introduced to fill an air gap at least one of behind or around the electrical box. The check valve includes a plurality of flexible fingers extending inwardly from the wall to a predetermined location to define the central opening. The flexible fingers are separated from one another by gaps. The flexible fingers are integrally formed with the wall.
