Attic Pull Down Stairs with David Lewis Hatch Cover in Toms River, NJ

Everyone needs access to their attic, but poorly insulated attic pull-down stairs, like in this Toms River, NJ home, can lead to significant conditioned air loss. This means the homeowner is wasting money to condition unused attic space. At Dave Hoh’s Home Comfort & Energy Experts, we address this issue by reinforcing the frame with additional wood and air-sealing the seams with ZypFoam. We then install weather stripping and the David Lewis Hatch Cover, a radiant foam barrier made from SilverGlo foam insulation. This material, infused with graphite, increases insulation value by 24% compared to standard EPS foam. The radiant barrier reflects heat back in winter and out in summer, reducing the workload on the insulation. By installing the airtight David Lewis Hatch Cover, homeowners will have a more comfortable, energy-efficient home with lower energy bills.
