Photo Album: Custom Walk-Up Attic Stair Cover in Red Bank, NJ

This customer's beautiful Victorian-style home in Red Bank, NJ was extremely drafty and leaving her uncomfortable while trying to relax and unwind.  She did the smart thing and called Dr. Energy Saver to help her find a solution to her home's problem. It was easy to determine that a large amount of the outside attic air was passing through the unsealed stairway and around the door at the base of the stairs and into the house. This was leaving the inside of the home essentially exposed to the attic. Unfortunately, since the hole in the attic to the stairwell was so large, Dr. Energy doesn't offer a large enough premade David Lewis Style Hatch cover, so we were forced to custom make an air-sealed hatch cover to fit this homes specifications. The end result was better than anyone could have imagined, Dr. Energy was able to create a large, hinged 2" foam polyisocyanurate board hatch that could be easily swung open to access the attic at any time, while keeping the inside of the home safe from the outside attic air, solving the home's draft problem.
