Insulation Services Before & After Photos

In Toms River, NJ this family was experiencing drastic temperature differences in all the bed rooms. We had the solution, we air sealed around the can lights and insulated with our TruSoft Blown In Cellulose. We also left room for storage. 

Typical attic soffit blocked by fiberglass insulation. After picture shows a soffit vent baffle peaking out above nice deep insulation. This maintains good attic ventilation.

Although the attic is not a good place to store anything, many houses just need the storage area.  The before picture shows unorganized storage all over an underinsulated attic. The after picture shows a pull down stair cover. a solid decked area (that you can walk on and slide boxes accross), insulation retaining dams and a attic beyond the storage area air sealed and insulated to R-60. Dr. Energy Saver division of Home Comfort & Energy Experts changed the shape of the storage area allowing for more usable storage and a much larger insulated attic flat.

This customer home is a typical split level home. There is a vented crawl space under the living room and kitchen, basically half of the house that is approx 4' high. This space is cold in the winter and damp in the summer contributing to cold floors above, comfort issues.

The pictures show the crawl form the same angle before and after. The solution was to encapsulate the space, install Clean Space liner, over drainage matting with all seams sealed, insulate walls with 2" Silver glo boards, with all seams sealed, and seal and insulate the rim joist with 2" closed cell spray foam.  This effectively brings the space inside the thermal envelope, keeping it warm and dry!!!   Looks good too. 

These customers had no place for storage in their large attic, they were forced to walk along 4" wide boards across the framing of the house. After reaching out to Dr. Energy Saver for insulation solutions they were pleased to find that they could choose to add a storage deck in their attic. The customers chose to install an attic super deck which is plywood with cellulose densely packed underneath to ensure the area is insulated. After airsealing around the chimney, plywood was cut to create a sturdy and safe storage area to walk on and also created a dam between the 16" of cellulose that was used to insulate the rest of the attic.
