Reducing Ice Dams in Worcester, MA

This homeowner from Worcester, MA called us about ice damming problems. They experienced costly fuel bills during the cold months of the year. After our evaluation and inspection, we found major heat loss due to inefficient insulation and air leaks.

To fix this common problem, we use our SuperPlatform treatment. First, we removed the existing insulation; remove all of the old insulation and properly dispose of the materials off site. In addition, this homeowner requested more storage space, so we accommodated and made a catwalk for easy access. We laid our 4" SilverGlo foam board across the wooded walkway. Next, we installed plywood over the foam board and secured it. Finally, we dense packed our TruSoft cellulose insulation to complete the project.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this customer is happier in their warm and comfortable home - and no longer dealing with ice damming issues!

Snow Melt in Millbury, MA

This homeowner in Millbury, MA called us out to their home to update their attic insulation. Due to having inefficient insulation they were experiencing snow melt on the roof! Some spots were too hot and others were too cold. This home was insulated with old fiberglass insulation, which does not stop airflow!

We know we needed to remove all of the old, inefficient fiberglass insulation in this knee wall space. We bag up and properly dispose of the materials and move on to installing our SilverGlo! We install our blocks of Silverglo foam insulation board between the ceiling joist bays, and under the rafters. Around the blocks are air sealed with foam. Now, inside air is not able to escape out of the home and outside air is not able to enter!

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions this home is more comfortable, energy-efficient, and no longer has snow melt!

Insulating a Crawl Space in Shrewsbury, MA

This homeowner in Shrewsbury, MA reached out to us hoping that we would be able to help him with his insulation. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to his home, he provided a full evaluation of the entire home, including the crawl space, which had insulation issues. In a crawl space, the “rim joist” is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house. The joints and gaps between all the framing members allow for a lot of air leakage into the house. The rim joist is seldom insulated and never air sealed. Crawl space ceiling insulation, especially fiberglass batts, doesn’t stop the flow of cold air into the home. Results - cold floors, drafty, uncomfortable rooms, cold lower level, higher heating and cooling bills and more condensation in the basement or crawl space in the summer.

 

We had the perfect solution for this customer. In this solution, we spray foam the rim joist in the crawl space in order to seal and insulate it. Two part expanding spray foam is installed on the rim joist and over the sill plate to seal all air leaks from the outside and insulate this important area of the home. Our spray foam has a high insulation value per inch of R7, and because it expands, it seals all cracks and gaps and joints where air from the outside enters the home. Results - warmer floors, less drafts, more comfortable rooms, the house is easier to heat and costs less to heat, less summertime condensation on cold crawl space surfaces.
