Reducing Ice Damming in Hinsdale, MA

This customer called us out in regards to a problem he was having in his home. The problem was that this mobile home had a lot of ice damming in the winter. ice damming can severely damage your home! Ice dams occur after heavy snowfall when warm air in the attic causes the roof to warm and the snow to melt due to poor insulation. To fix this, we have to first remove all of the old fiberglass batting insulation that is not doing its job. We properly bag and dispose of those materials. Now its time to air seal. We air seal all accessible penetrations, end plates and top plates where air can leak from your home into your attic. This is done with our two part foam. Next, our TruSoft cellulose insulation is blown in the attic to get our optimum R-value of R60. With this we fill all of the gaps and odd shaped voids so that thermal bridging is avoided. Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy solutions this happy customer can live comfortable without ice damming this winter!
