Encapsulating Ducts Running Through Attic in Avon, CT

This office in Avon, CT contacted us about high energy costs and heat loss. There was ductwork in the attic exposed to the extreme temperatures of the attic.

We sealed and insulated the ducts with 1 inch of closed cell spray foam making it air tight. For main lines such as this one, we also place our SilverGlo graphite infused and foil faced foam to create a radiant barrier at the top of the ducts.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, these ducts will no longer be affected by the temperature of the attic.

 

Making a Home More Comfortable in Westbrook, CT

This home owner in Westbrook, Ct called us out because she couldn't keep her home comfortable. In the summer it was way too hot and the winter it was really cold. To fix these issues, one of the treatment we did was insulate the attic. This will help keep the hot or cold air depending on the season, in your home. First thing we have to do is remove the old fiberglass batts. These are no longer any good because fiberglass is just a filter and does not do a good job at protecting your home. Next we air seal the attic so no convective air can escape from the living space to the attic. Then we blow out trusoft cellulose to an R-value of 60. This attic is now properly insulated and this home owner can live more comfortable in her own home!

Making a Home More Comfortable in Glastonbury, CT

This homeowner in Glastonbury, CT called us to address the improper installation of attic insulation and mold problems in the first floor of the hallway. We went to conduct our Full Home Energy Evaluation and found additional mold up in the attic. This home had a radiant barrier with no air sealing, only fiberglass insulation in the radiant barrier sheets. Because of the improper air sealing and insulation, condensation and heat loss from the home was making its way past the radiant barrier and creating condensation, and eventually mold.

We removed the radiant barrier and all of the old fiberglass insulation in the attic. Next, we removed the mold using our Mold-X on the effected areas. We laid our 4" SilverGlo foam board across the wooded walkway and blew in the insulation. Next, we installed plywood over the foam board and secured it in place. We dense packed our TruSoft cellulose insulation and built a deck so the homeowner could access this area for storage. Finally, we completed our Cellulose insulation on the sides of the catwalk.

Thanks to Dr Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this home is now more comfortable, healthy, and energy efficient!

Optimizing Energy Efficiency in Avon, CT

This homeowner in Avon, CT called us out to their home to see what they could do to increase the energy efficiency in their home. We saw there was old, inefficient fiberglass insulation in the attic. We know that fiberglass is not able to be energy efficient, especially without any air sealing. 

We remove all of the old, nasty fiberglass insulation. We properly bag up an dispose of the materials. Next, we carefully air seal various points where air from your home leaks up into and out of the attic with foam. In this home, we insulated the ductwork before blowing in our TruSoft Cellulose Insulation to fill in any and all gaps and odd-shaped voids.

Now, thanks to Dr. Energy Saver, this home is more comfortable, and energy efficient!

Replacing Attic Insulation and Treating Mold in Marlborough, MA

This homeowner in Marlborough, Ma because they had old, inefficient insulation in their attic. Upon evaluating their attic we noticed old blown-in insulation as well as nasty fiberglass batts. We took a closer look and noticed Mold as well. Mold can be very dangerous. It is harmful to have in your home, especially for pets, young children, and older people. 

We knew we needed to help this home. First, we removed all of the old, blown in- and fiberglass insulation and properly disposed of the materials properly. We made sure to vacuum any debris that was left in the attic  Next, we spray our Mold-X treatment throughout the attic to neutralize any nooks and crannies that can be affected. Then we use our Mold-X botanical cleaner to clean all stains off of effected services. Now we are ready for the next step.

We seal up all top plates and any areas where air can escape from the home into the attic and be lost with foam. Now we are ready to blow our TruSoft Cellulose insulation into the attic. Cellulose will fill in any odd-shaped voids and gaps.

Now, thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this home has updated insulation, is safer, and more energy efficient!
