Solving Cold Drafts and High Energy Bills in Brick, NJ

This homeowner in Brick, NJ, struggled with discomfort due to cold drafts, stuffy rooms, and soaring energy bills, prompting them to seek our assistance. During our free home inspection, we discovered that their attic was inadequately insulated with deteriorating fiberglass insulation, which contributed to their issues. Upon pulling back the insulation, we identified improper air sealing and blocked soffit vents exacerbated by the fiberglass. To fix this, we air-sealed the floors, sealed leaky ducts, properly installed baffle vents, and applied TruSoft cellulose insulation to achieve an optimal R-60 value. These improvements significantly enhanced both comfort and energy efficiency in their home.
