This customer from Mattituck had a energy assessment because half of the second floor bedrooms were warmer in the summer than the other bedrooms. After examining the customer's house it was determined that one of their issues was that their supply plenum was not properly insulated. To help improve comfort in their bedroom, we wrapped the supply plenum with insulated duct wrap, preventing cool air from being lost into the attic. By doing this, these bedrooms will be much cooler in the summer because all the conditioned air will go to the bedrooms and not escape through the ducts to the attic. The house is also more energy efficient.
A resident of Mattituck contacted Triple H regarding comfort concerns in their home. One of the issues discovered was their bath fan was exhausting into their attic instead of outside. Additionally, the attic did not have a radiant barrier or proper air sealing throughout, including around high-hats. Our team fixed this problem by insulating the knee walls with Silver Glow rigid foam board, covering the light fixtures with a rockwool cap and, air sealing with one-part spray foam.
This customer requested a free Home Energy Assessment at their home. After the assessment and talking with the customer about all their concerns, it was decided that they would benefit from having cellulose insulation blown into the attic. Triple h removed and disposed of all the old insulation in the attic. After that we then air sealed all the air leaks on the attic floor. We then blew in cellulose insulation, which is resistant to fire, mold, and pest, making it a great choice. After insulating the attic, the customer will have a warmer, more comfortable and less drafty house.
This customer came to us with some concerns of some of his rooms being too hot all the time. After a Free Home Energy Assessment, we recommended to encapsulate the duct system with spray foam. Triple H went in and used spray foam to seal and insulate the ducts over the existing insulation. Air cannot leak through the foam. We were able to encapsulate these ducts with superior R-values and it being airtight. Now this customers rooms are more comfortable, being warmer in the summer and cooler in the winter plus less duct noise and lower bills.
A homeowner from Cutchogue, NY contacted Triple H Insulation with complaints that their home is always cold and drafty. Our home comfort consultant Bill performed a free evaluation of their home. Upon completion of the evaluation Bill provided a solution to improve the attic. Triple H removed and disposed of all the existing insulation in the attic, then the team air sealed and insulated the attic floor with 16 inches of TruSoft cellulose. They then air sealed and insulated the two ceiling levels in the attic using SilverGlo insulation foam boards. The homeowner will now be more comfortable and the home will be more energy efficient.
