Improving Comfort by Addressing Attic Problems in Sea Girt, NJ

The homeowner in Sea Girt, NJ, experienced comfort issues on the second floor. Upon conducting a free inspection, we discovered that the attic was in poor condition. Our team took action by air sealing the attic using ZypFoam sealant, sealing and encapsulating leaky ducts, installing can light covers to seal the can lights, adding SiverGlo rigid foam boards to insulate adjoining walls, properly incorporating baffle vents for ventilation, and blowing in TruSoft cellulose insulation to achieve an R-60 value. These measures significantly enhanced the home's comfort and energy efficiency for the homeowner.

Addressing Leaky Ducts, Poor Insulation, and Air Sealing Issues in Little Silver, NJ

While inspecting this home in Little Silver, NJ, we discovered that the attic was not properly air-sealed, and the supply and return ducts were leaking conditioned air. Additionally, the existing insulation was inadequate to effectively insulate the attic and the home. To address these issues, we encapsulated and sealed the ducts using SilverGlo foam boards to eliminate air leaks and to protect them from the summer heat. Next, we air-sealed the attic floor and constructed wooden retaining walls to contain blown-in TruSoft cellulose insulation to R-60. We also created catwalks for easy access to the mechanicals. As a result, this homeowner now enjoys a more comfortable home with improved energy efficiency.

Turning an Attic into a SuperAttic in Little Silver, NJ

In Little Silver, NJ, a homeowner was dealing with poor attic insulation that led to discomfort, energy waste, and unusable storage space. We solved the problem by installing a SuperAttic system, which moves the insulation barrier to the roofline, creating a more stable, conditioned attic environment. This upgrade not only made the space suitable for storage but also improved comfort throughout the home and lowered energy bills through better insulation and ventilation.

Attic Kneewall Insulation in Red Bank, NJ

This customer was feeling cold in her bedroom because a  kneewall that borders the attic space was allowing a lot of cold air to move into the room because the wall was not properly air sealed or insulated. A large cavity next to the building support also allowed a lot of cool air to freely move through the attic from below. By insulating the kneewall with 2" reflective radiant barrier foam board, Dr. Energy Saver was able to keep the cold air out of the customer's bedroom. Sealing off the cavity with foam board as well slowed the movement of air through the attic dramatically.
