This homeowner called us because the attic insulation in his home was pretty nasty and ineffective. Over many years it collected dirt, dust, pollen, bugs, and all kinds of undesirable things. Old insulation like this cannot be moved aside for a proper air sealing job that must be done prior to adding enough blown cellulose insulation to today’s standards.
Fogarty's Home Services conducted the unpleasant task of removing the damaged, soiled insulation in his attic. Loose fill insulation was vacuumed with a giant vacuum located outside with giant filter bags and a very long, fat hose.
Result - Now this attic is clean! It’s ready for proper air sealing and installation of clean, new, fresh cellulose insulation or one of our other Dr. Energy Saver strategies to make your home comfortable and energy efficient.
