Owners Warmer in Lake Oswego, OR Home Now That Attic Is Properly Sealed and Insulated
This BEFORE photo shows the low levels of insulation in this attic, plus an effort to “plug” the air leaks with pieces of batting.
To properly insulate this home, our crew removed all the old insulation, sealed the leaks properly, and then blew in TruSoft™ cellulose. This puts a nice snug “blanket” in the attic to keep these homeowners warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
Attic Air Sealed in Tualatin, OR Home Before Cellulose Insulation Blown In
To be the most effective project it can be, don’t just add insulation on top of old insulation. It’s much more effective to remove the old insulation, get at the places that need air sealing with spray foam, and then insulate over this air sealed attic floor.
This Tualatin, OR attic hardly had any insulation and didn’t have leaks sealed (see BEFORE photo). After our insulating team removed the old insulation, they air sealed the leaks (see AFTER photo). They then blew in the TruSoft™ cellulose insulation.
Stayton, OR Crawl Space Access Gets New Door
The cover over the access to this crawl space wasn’t doing much to prevent critters from entering, so our crew installed a new crawl space door.
Pole Barn in Aurora, OR Insulated with Spray Foam
The owner of this barn near Aurora, OR wanted to turn the existing pole barn into a work studio.
If he had chosen fiberglass batting, he would still have been cold in this building as the sides are metal. Closed-cell spray foam is a great, sturdy, longer-term solution as it seals the surfaces it is applied to.
Attic Re-Insulated in Woodburn, OR Home to Make Home Stay Warmer Longer
After living in this house for less than a year, these Woodburn, OR homeowners knew they didn’t want to live through another winter in this cold house.
They found us online and called to set up an appointment. Our energy consultant crawled into the attic and found very little insulation (see BEFORE photo), plus there were leaky areas everywhere.
To help keep heat in the house in the winter, the old, inefficient insulation was removed, leaks were air sealed, and the attic was re-insulated with blown-in cellulose insulation to the R-38 level. (AFTER photo)
