Dave Hoh's Home Comfort & Energy Experts Before & After Photos

In Highlands, NJ, many crawl spaces, like this one, need our expertise. Poor insulation causes cold floors in winter and drafty rooms, while in summer, hot, humid air enters through the stack effect, leading to mold, dry rot, and other problems. We specialize in insulating neglected crawl spaces to ensure year-round comfort and energy efficiency. Our solutions include installing SilverGlo foam boards on walls, spray foaming exposed rim joists, and encapsulating dirt floors with CleanSpace liner. These measures greatly enhance homeowner comfort and efficiency.

Before: Attic Flat Area: Under insulated, large air leakage from conditioned space below, not safe to walk on. 

After: Same attic flat area. "Super deck installed." Original deck removed and all air leakage om that space sealed to prevent heat loss, 4" R-20 Silver Glo board insulation installed over 2"x16" o.c. rafters, 1/2 o.s.b decking installed on top of Silver Glo. 6" cavity below Silver Glo dense packed with cellulose insulation!

Result: R-40 super insulated, Super Strong Super Deck!!!

Before: Typical attic knee wall with very cold room on other side. 

After: Same knee wall properly sheathed, sealed, and draft blocked below. Note: New insulation has radiant barrier reflecting heat away!!

Before: Typical vented crawl space with earth floors - problems = ice cold wooden floors above, very high humidity all year round, especially in the summer and infested with cave crickets!

 After: Same crawl space - after Dr. Energy Saver's patented: Crawl Encapsulation System.

• Earth floor covered and sealed with clean space 20mm liner.
• Walls insulated with 2" R-10 Silver Glo boards. Rim joist air sealed and insulated with 2" closed cell spray foam.
• Original foundation vents sealed.

Result: Warm, dry crawl space, warm floors above, greatly reduced energy consumption in the whole house 

Note: The cave crickets from before, don't like clean dry spaces and have been greatly reduced. 

When your homes skylight is not insulated properly, it can allow a lot of hot air to move from the attic into your home's living space. This was the problem at a home in Freehold, NJ. Their skylight was insulated by flimsy, fluffy, fiberglass insulation. So they called the experts at Dr. Energy Saver to solve the problem!

By encapsulating the framing of the skylight in 2" high density polyisocyanurate foam board you can heavily reduce the airflow and amount of heat moving through the cavity and into your home. Resulting in cooler rooms during the summer and warmer during the winter.

This family saved on their energy expenses with this simple fix!
