Attic Insulation in Laval, Qc
Mr. Tang wanted to re-insulate his attic because he had problems with ice damming on his roof in winter. In addition, he felt drafts of cool air in the rooms upstairs. This was due to poor insulation in his attic.
Our solution to our client's problem was to first remove the old fiberglass insulation in order to seal all the air leaks that were present on the attic surface (joints, holes, etc.). Then we installed vents on each end of the attic to finally blow out just over 16” of cellulose fibers.
Lack of insulation in an attic in Laval,Qc
The problem
Mr. Omar had several problems with his attic:
- Lack of insulation
- Insulation in the soffits prevents air circulation in the attic
- Ice dam on the roof in winter
- Condensation on the ceiling on the upper floor.
The solution:
Remove the wool to seal all air leaks on the attic floor such as joints, holes, and recessed. Install vents throughout the soffits to allow airflow into the attic. Insulate the chimney and then blow out just over 16” of cellulose fiber to achieve an R-60 value.
Attic insulation in Laval,Qc
The problem
The attic of Mr Gaudio's house was very poorly insulated. It had about 6 inches of fiberglass as insulation, which is far from sufficient in Quebec. Because of this, he felt some very cold breezes in winter, especially in the rooms of the house and he had noticed that heating costs were getting very high.
The solution
We removed or customer's old insulation to properly seal any air leaks on the attic floor. Subsequently, we added our SilverGlo insulation boards on some walls of the attic to finally blow 16 '' of cellulose fibers.
Adequate amount of cellulose, for a perfect attic insulation
When our client from Westmount, QC contacted us, he was dealing with an overheated attic despite having insulation installed, which increased his Hydro bills and made his home uncomfortable. Our inspection revealed inadequate insulation and significant air leaks, which we corrected by replacing the old insulation with our TruSoft cellulose and sealing the leaks. Due to our intervention, our client now enjoys a more comfortable and energy-efficient home.

The problem
Mr. Simard contacted Systèmes Éconergie to properly insulate his attic. He had very high energy costs, as well as problems with an ice dam on the roof of his house in winter. Both of these problems are caused by the lack of insulation in his attic.
The solution
In order to solve Mr. Simard's problem, we removed the old fiberglass insulation, to seal all the air leaks in the attic (joints, ducts, etc.) and we blew a little more than 16’’ of cellulose fibers. With this solution, we achieve an R-61 value!
