Re-Insulating an Attic in Granville, MA

This homeowner in Granville, MA called us saying that he had found mold and damp insulation in his attic. Our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home and was able to do a full evaluation. He noted that among other issues such as improper ventilation, the attic was not air sealed and had ineffective insulation. 

 

In order to help this attic customer, we first had to remove the old fiberglass insulation. There were two types of insulation, blown-in fiberglass and fiberglass batt insulation. We bagged the batt insulation and vacuumed the rest out with a long hose. 

 

We then set to work re-insulating the attic. We first air-sealed all cracks and gaps in the attic floor using Zypfoam one part spray foam. We used our TiteShell™ can light covers to cover up the can lights and sealed around them. 

 

After that, we insulated the attic floor using our TruSoft™ blown in cellulose insulation. We insulated to R-60, which is the recommended level of insulation for attics in our region. 

 

Now, this homeowner has a much more comfortable home - he was already feeling a noticeable difference less than a week after this job was completed! 

Insulating Walls in a Home in East Hartland, CT

This homeowner initially reached out to us saying that he wanted his attic and exterior walls insulated. Many older homes have no insulation in the exterior walls. Most homes without insulation experience cold, drafty rooms, their heating and cooling systems run much more and need more service (causing higher energy bills!), and it's difficult to keep house at a comfortable temperature.

 

We had the perfect solution for this homeowner. We dense packed the exterior walls using TruSoft™ cellulose insulation. His siding was removed temporarily and 29/16” holes were drilled through the wall sheathing. A fill tube was inserted up (and down) into wall cavities to not only fill, but dense pack the wall cavities. Dense packing is a technique that packs the insulation in very tightly - so tightly that all irregular shaped cavities and crevices in the wall cavities are filled, and air will not penetrate the dense packed cellulose. Dense packed cellulose stops air flow through the wall and insulates. TruSoft™ Cellulose is treated to be highly fire, mold and pest resistant. The holes were plugged and the siding was put back. Result - A less drafty, warmer, quieter, more comfortable house, less dust/pollen, house not so dry in winter, lower fuel/electric bills, heating system runs less - less maintenance.

Making a Basement Warmer and Less Damp in Adams, MA

This homeowner in Adams, MA called us out to their home for an estimate on spray foam insulation in their basement because they were getting a lot of cold air in the area. We conducted our full home energy evaluation and noticed an old, open sump pump hole in the basement floor! This was for one, dangerous, and two was letting tons of air leak out from their home! This will create humid basements in the summer, and possible floods.

Now we know what we need to do to fix this problem. Dr Energy Saver SuperSump system is well engineered. We dig a hole in the floor to make sure the pump will fit. Then we drill the pipe to the rim joist. The water that would be in the basement then goes into the ground and discharges through an outlet. The water then is pumped outside away from the house where it is properly drained.

Now this home no longer has an open hole allowing air, and water into the basement thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions!

 

Reducing Water in a Basement in Blandford, MA

This homeowner in Blanford, MA called us to his home to see what we could do about his water problem in his basement. One of the issues he had was that he had no sump pump!

To help this home owner we installed our Triple Safe Sump Pump. First thing we have to do is jack hammer away the concrete so we can create a hole for the pump to sit in. Then we lay some stone down in the hole and put the pump housing in and make sure its level with the rest of the basement. Once that is done we fill the hole with more stone so we can concrete the floor. Once this is all done we run the PVC pipe out of the basement, through the rim joist and away from the house. 

Now that Dr Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions came and took care of this problem, this homeowner will not have to worry about water in his basement anymore!
