Cellulose Insulation and Air Sealing in Attic - Franklin Square, NY
A resident of Franklin Square had a free in-home evaluation. The homeowner was having some comfort concerns. It was determined that the home could benefit from new insulation and air sealing in the attic. Before blowing in cellulose insulation, we air sealed the attic floor. Air sealing is always recommended when putting in new insulation because it seals up all air leaks in the home. We then blew in 12" of Cellulose insulation, providing a superior R-value per inch. Now that the attic is sealed and insulated properly, the customer should now experience warmer winters and cooler summers, as well as a less drafty home.
"Super Knee Wall" Insulation- Malverne, NY
When our home comfort specialist arrived at a home in Malverne, NY it was easy to see a poorly insulated knee wall was causing comfort concerns. A knee wall space is created when a finished room is built within a sloped roof. When this area isn’t properly insulated it results in the upper level, the ceiling of the lower level, and the knee wall to be very cold in winter and hot in the summer. The knee wall is then not suitable for storage. Triple H added baffles in each rafter bay to ensure proper airflow before adding the insulation. Then they added fiberglass insulation before covering it with SilverGlo foam board insulation. SilverGlo is installed under the rafters up to the knee wall and sealed at the top with foam sealant. After the installation, inside air can’t get out of the house through the knee wall space and outside air can’t get in. Now with the knee wall properly insulated there should be significantly warmer upstairs in the winter and cooler in the summer, as well as less drafts throughout the home.
Exterior Dense Pack - East Rockaway, NY
This customer in East Rockaway had requested a Free Home Energy Assessment. Upon completion of the assessment it was determined that this home had little to no insulation in the exterior walls. This causes the homeowner to have colder rooms and feel discomfort. To improve the comfort of this home we dense packed the exterior walls with cellulose insulation. This homeowner now has warmer rooms and is more comfortable.
Proper Attic Insulation- Albertson, NY
This is what a Properly Insulated Attic should look like. The Triple H Crew went in and removed all the old insulation in the attic. They then air sealed all the air leaks to prevent drafts. After air sealing the team then added a barrier to contain the new insulation coming in. Then they blew in new cellulose insulation to the optimum R-value. Making a less drafty, warmer, more comfortable home.
Can Light Covers- Albertson, NY
"Can lights" are holes in the ceiling. Air leaks between the fixture and the drywall, and through the fixture itself because of the many holes and seams in it. Dr. Energy Saver’s™ TiteShell™ Can Light Covers are installed over your can lights, fitted around wires and fixture struts, and sealed air-tight with expanding foam. TiteShell™ covers are safe from the fire hazards of hot bulbs and fixtures. Once TiteShells™ are installed, TruSoft™ insulation can be blown into the attic against and over them, eliminating costly gaps in insulation and adding R-value. Results are less drafts and more comfortable rooms, and a tighter more energy efficient home.
