Triple H Insulation air sealed this attic space from any penetrations that caused any air leakage in the home. Then add 10" cellulose insulation to reach the appropriate R-value of R-49.
Cape style homes are often uncomfortable. A customer in West Babylon, NY fell victim to this house design and was freezing. Our representative Ryan went and evaluated the situation. The knee wall of the home had old fiberglass on the knee wall itself and no insulation on the floor. There was also no air sealing. Triple H Insulation air sealed all open penetrations, installed SilverGlo on the Knee wall and denspacked the roof. Cellulose insulation was added to the attic floor. al well. The home is now much more comfortable.
This homeowner from North Babylon, NY was looking to get his crawl space properly insulated and waterproofed. Triple H went installed a crawl space encapsulation system with drainage matting. SilverGlo foam insulation boards are installed on the walls to increase the R-value in the space and a dimpled plastic drainage matting is installed across the floor to create an airspace and thermal break. Finally, the crawl space encapsulation liner is installed permanently across the dirt floor. Now this home will have much lower humidity, much warmer floors upstairs and a more comfortable home.
After an evaluation for a customer in Deer Park, NY it showed that his attic wasn’t properly insulated resulting in cold drafty rooms, cold floors, and he was having a hard time heating his home. Triple H removed the old insulation. Then they sealed all the various points where air from the home leaks up into the attic and is lost. Then they blew in 12” of TruSoft Cellulose Insulation to reach optimum R-value. TruSoft will not burn, get moldy or attract pests. Now with updated insulation this home will be warmer, more comfortable, less drafty, and easier to keep comfortable resulting in lower fuel and electric bills.
One of the projects the Triple H crew had to do in Deer Park, NY is to spray foam the rim joist in the basement. Uninsulated rim joist is a major source of heat loss in many homes. Insulating the rim joists is one of the best things you can do to make your home more energy efficient. The Triple H crew uses spray foam on the rim joist and over sill plates to seal all air leaks. This will help lower heating costs and save money, as well as making your home more comfortable.
