Insulation Services Before & After Photos

This home owner in Bloomfield, CT had a humidity problem in there bathroom due to not having a bathroom fan. By not having a fan, you are letting all that humidity stay in the bathroom with no where for it to go. This eventually will cause mold to grow on the Sheetrock walls and mold is not something you want in your home. To fix this problem, our team installed a high efficiency bath fan. After we installed the fan, we have to duct the vent out the home by running the vent to the Gable side of the home. We then attach it to a proper vent so the humid air can escape. Now the homeowners will not have any more mold in their bathroom!

These homeowners met us at the Western Massachusetts Home and Garden Show where they let us know that they had a porch that they were looking to make into more livable space. With our free energy evaluation, we found that they only had a thin radiant barrier under the floor, which was not enough to keep out the cold on its own.

We removed the radiant barrier and insulated the rim joist with spray foam to create a proper seal before getting to the insulation. We then started installing our SilverGlo insulation foam board. SilverGlo is a graphite infused expended polystyrene board with a radiant barrier facing, it has 24% more insulation value than standard expanded polystyrene board. Those boards were put in place with special long screws and 3 inch washers and then any spaces between the boards were sealed with spray foam.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, these homeowners can enjoy this porch all year round!

This home owner in Westfield, MA called us out because he was having ice dams in the winter. This is not a good sign. Ice dams can ruin a home and cost ten of thousands in repairs. The reason these dams are occurring is because the heat you pay for rises up into the attic and heats the roof deck to over 32 degrees, melting the snow. The snow runs down the roof until it gets to the gutters and re-freezes making a dam. To stop this from happening, we must air seal this home. We will stop the hot air from getting into your attics by sealing every single gap, crack, and penetration from the conditioned space to the attic. Once we have this done the house is one step closer to being ice dam free!

This homeowner in Westfield, Ma called us out because he could keep his home comfortable in the winter. The temperature would always change and his furnace would be on all of the time. During the inspection of the home, we found that he had an interior wall exposed to an attic space. This wall was letting heat escape in the attic by conducting right through the Sheetrock. To stop this, we started to insulate the wall with our silverglo foam EPS board. By putting this insulation board on the wall, it will stop the heat from conduction through the Sheetrock. Since the heat is now not escaping, this area of the home will be much more comfortable and the furnace will not have to run nearly as much!
