After Triple H completed an energy assessment of this customer's home in Northport, it was determined that their attic was improperly insulated. Before blowing in cellulose insulation, we sealed the high hats (can lights) with covers so none of the heat from the house escapes into the attic. This customer will have a warm home and lower energy bills due to the cellulose insulation and air sealing that was done.
The customer in Northport had concerns about cold floors above their basement. After completing the assessment it was determined that the rim joist had not been properly sealed, allowing cold air to enter the basement and effect the floors above. Triple H used closed cell spray foam to insulate and air seal the rim joist. By doing this it will keep cold air out and will keep the basement warmer resulting in warmer floors upstairs.
This resident of Northport, NY was having some comfort issues. They were experiencing cold floors and cold rooms above their crawl space. It was determined that this crawl space wasn’t properly sealed and insulated. A lot of the outside air was leaking in and causing these comfort issues. Triple H went in and installed a Crawl Space Encapsulation system with a vapor barrier. SilverGlo Insulation with reflective radiant barrier was installed on all the walls of the crawl space. This increases the R-value in the crawl space by 24%. Now there should be much lower humidity, warmer floors, and less drafts.
We encapsulated this duct system with 1" of closed-cell insulation to prevent any air leaks. Now when your heat or cooling system heats/cools the air, that heating/cooling is delivered to your rooms without loss along the way!
This customer in East Northport had concerns about their house being too cold. After having Triple H complete a free energy assessment it was determined that the home could benefit from new insulation in the attic. For this attic, Triple H Air Sealed the attic floor and blew in Cellulose insulation. Air sealing is always recommended when putting in new insulation because it seals up all the air leaks in the home before putting the new insulation in. Now that the attic is tightly sealed and has proper insulation the home will stay warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. This customer will also see a reduction in their utility bill as well.
