Gaps & Holes
After we pull up the fiberglass insulation we can see the attic is not air sealed. Looking at the sill or top plate we can see gaps and wires with holes in the attic floor. Air the homeowner is paying for is leaking out into the attic.
Pipe Hole & Gaps
Again after we pull up the fiberglass insulation we can see the attic is not air sealed. Looking at the sill or top plate we can see gaps and a pipe with a large gap in the attic floor. Air the homeowner is paying for is leaking out into the attic.
Vaulted Ceiling & Skylight
Looking at the vaulted ceiling & skylight insulation we can see dirt built up in the insulation. We have air leaking out of the vaulted ceiling & skylight that the owner is paying for.
Skylight & Vaulted Ceiling
Again we can see dirt in the insulation which is telling us that air the homeowner is paying for is leaking into the attic.
Properly Insulated Skylight
We installed SilverGlo insulation panels all around the skylight & vaulted ceiling. Our crew used orange ZypFoam sealant to air seal the seams of the SilverGlo.
Poorly Insulated Kneewall
This homeowner had a poorly insulated kneewall. Again we want to reiterate the attic is not air sealed here and the insulation is doing next to nothing to insulate.
Properly Insulated Kneewall
After removing the contaminated fiberglass insulation we air sealed the kneewall floor. Next we installed SilverGlo insulation panels to the adjoining walls and then blew-in our TruSoft cellulose insulation.
Poorly Insulated Adjoining Wall
This adjoining wall is poorly insulated and needs to be properly insulated. The adjoining wall is part of the vaulted ceiling.
Properly Insulated Adjoining Wall
This adjoining wall is now properly insulated. The adjoining wall is part of the vaulted ceiling. We installed SilverGlo insulation panels and air sealed the seams with orange ZypFoam sealant.
Completed Project
The vaulted ceiling and sky light is now properly insulated with no air leaks. We blew-in TruSoft cellulose insulation to complete the attic insulation. This owner now has a much more comfortable and energy efficient home.
