Transforming a NJ Home: From Discomfort to Energy Efficiency in Manchester Township

In Manchester Township, NJ, a homeowner faced discomfort in certain rooms and high energy bills due to issues like leaky ducts, inadequate insulation, and an unsealed attic. Our team took a comprehensive approach to resolve these issues. By repairing the leaky ducts, air sealing the attic, and installing R-60 TruSoft cellulose insulation, we made the attic more comfortable and energy-efficient.

Interior Wall Exposed to a Cold/Hot Attic in Freehold Township, NJ

In Freehold Township, NJ, a homeowner faced discomfort due to conditioned air leaking through an exposed interior attic wall, causing temperature extremes in the adjoining room. We resolved this issue by installing SilverGlo insulation boards and sealed with orange ZypFoam in key areas. This included applying and sealing SilverGlo on the attic side of interior walls. Completing the transformation, we air-sealed and insulated the attic with TruSoft cellulose, achieving an R-value of R-60. The result: a well-insulated, comfortable, and energy-efficient home for the homeowner.

Poorly Insulated Cathedral Ceiling & Skylights in Freehold Township, NJ

This homeowner in Freehold Township, NJ had a large poorly insulated cathedral ceiling with two skylights. We can see dirty exposed fiberglass insulation doing next to nothing to insulate the adjoining walls. Also the cathedral ceilings have exposed fiberglass insulation leaving outside air to circulate or leak through the rafters and into the attic creating an uncomfortable room.

To solve this issue we installed our SilverGlo insulation panels onto the adjoining walls of the cathedral ceiling and skylights. Using orange ZypFoam sealant we air sealed the whole attic floor and seams of the SilverGlo insulation panels. Next using TruSoft cellulose insulation our team dense-packed the adjoining walls and the slope of the roof to help insulate the cathedral ceiling. Finally we blew-in TruSoft insulation onto the attic floor to complete the insulation. This house is now more comfortable and energy efficient.

Attic Insulation and Mold Removal in Marlboro, NJ

Before:

This Kneewall Space in Marlboro, NJ, has old fiberglass insulation that’s trapped between the plastic liner and sheetrock.  The plastic liner has created moisture or condensation that has formed mildew and mold on the sheetrock.  We also have cold air that enters the attic kneewall space through leaky seams and fascia/soffit assemblies or through vents.

After:

Our crew removed all the old fiberglass insulation and plastic liners.  We also sprayed the molded sheetrock with our Mold-X Neutralizer.  This successfully eradicates the biofilm: the ‘lifeline’ for mold and bacteria.

Installing blocks of our SilverGlo foam insulation over the joist bay walls increases the R-value by 24% compared to regular EPS foam.  Sealing the seams with our Orange ZypFoam completes this project.  The results keeps hot or cold air in the Kneewall Space and prevents hot or cold air from seeping into the joining room.

Leaky Ceiling Box in Marlboro, NJ

We are in the homeowner’s attic looking at a leaky ceiling box in Marlboro, NJ. The ceiling box is anchored to the attic floor. A flexible truck connects to the end of it while the other end of the flexible trunk connects to the ducting system. Air passes through the trunk and into the ceiling box. Once air enters the ceiling box it passes through the ceiling vent into the room below. Unfortunately this ceiling box was never air sealed. Looking at the fiberglass insulation around the ceiling box we can tell air is leaking into the attic because of the dirt built up in the fiberglass. This also means dirt and fiberglass particulates are contaminating the rooms below potentially creating harmful or hazardous air to breath. Air the owner is paying for is leaking into the attic costing the owner more money to heat or cool their home. To solve this issue we use orange ZypFoam sealant and air sealed the seams to prevent air from leaking into the attic.

This homeowner now has a more comfortable and energy efficient home.
