Attic Insulation Before & After Photos

These homeowners in West Hartford, CT had been experiencing drafts for some time and decided that it was time to make their home more comfortable. There were ducts running through the attic, which, being vented, exposed the ducts to extreme temperatures, making it harder to heat and cool the home.

The existing insulation was ineffective and soiled in some spots and had to be removed. The batts were pulled out, and the blown in insulation was vacuumed out to get a clean slate. We then got to work installing our SilverGlo graphite infused foam insulation board on the underside of the roof and the gable end. There is a foil face on either side of the boards to keep heat from the roof out in the summer and keep warm air from the home in during the winter. The ducts in the attic no longer have to work as hard to maintain the temperature of the air running through them.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, these homeowners can feel comfortable in their home all year round.

When our Newington, CT customer called Fogarty's Home Services to report cold temperatures and drafts in her home, we were happy to help. One of the solutions we provided our to our customer was air sealing and insulating the interior wall that is exposed to the hot & cold hostile temperatures in her attic. Fogarty's Home Services installed SilverGlo™, an expanded polystyrene foam insulation board with graphite infused into the foam, on that interior wall. This gives it a 24% higher insulation value per inch than standard EPS foam. It also has a shiny radiant barrier to reflect heat as well, so the insulation isn't doing all the work itself. Now our happy customer will feel the results - more comfortable rooms that are easier to heat and cool, and lower energy bills. "We Fix Uncomfortable Homes!"
