The Triple H Crew insulated this attic by installing SilverGlo foam board insulation to the underside of the roof deck and walls. Then the roof slopes are dense packed with cellulose insulation to stop air flow and insulate. This customer's home is now comfortable all year and drafts are eliminated!
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.
Beautiful Attic Transformation!
This homeowner in Merrick, NY requested Triple H to evaluate their home. They wanted to find ways to reduce the cost of heating and cooling the home. The kneewall of this home was not air sealed or insulated. When this wall is not insulated or sealed correctly air can easily escape to the exterior portion of the home resulting in hot rooms in the summer and cold rooms in the winter. Triple H used SilverGlo insulation board because it gives a 24% higher insulation value than standard foam. The rooms of the home will be more comfortable and easier to heat and cool.
A homeowner from North Bellmore, NY contacted Triple H looking for a quote on insulation for their garage ceiling. Our home comfort consultant Ryan performed a free evaluation of the home. Upon completion Ryan was able to provide a solution for the homeowner. Triple H insulated the garage ceiling. Triple H insulated the garage ceiling by dense packing it with TruSoft cellulose.
