Duct Encapsulation and Insulation in Ledyard, CT

This homeowner called us because he was having a problem with air being distributed throughout the home. Part of the home were either way too hot or way too cold and dusty too. They requested we come to evaluate the situation.

Our Building Science Specialist was able to determine through careful inspection of the duct system in the attic, the existing insulation around the duct work was inefficient and leaking air in several different areas. This attic was also full of old, ineffective fiberglass insulation. The Solution was easy...Duct Encapsulation and new insulation. We started by Installing our Tite 'N' True™ Foam Duct Encapsulation System in which we seal and insulate right over the existing insulation with 1" of closed cell foam insulation,  creating an air tight seal. We also installed a David Lewis™ Stair Hatch Cover. We then cleaned out all of the old, fiberglass insulation, air sealed all penetrations, sealed around can lights and blew in TruSoft™ Cellulose Insulation, burying the ducts, which with further insure that the air you use to heat/cool will be delivered to your rooms without loss along the way.
