Before & After we insulated this attic space to make the customers home more energy efficient and comfortable
A homeowner from Seaford, NY contacted Triple H because of extreme cold in the winter and heat in the summer. Home Comfort Specialist Ryan visited the home to assess the situation and determined that the high temperatures were due to poor attic conditions. The Triple H production team worked to air seal the attic floor, installed baffles for proper attic ventilation, and added a small plywood catwalk platform for storage. The floor was insulated with 10" of TruSoft Cellulose and extended the duct bath fan through the gable end. Finally, the attic scuttle and hatch were air sealed and insulated. The homeowner will now have a more comfortable home year round.
A customer from Massapequa called because the insulation in the attic was old and the second floor is always much colder than the first floor. Our Home Comfort Specialist, Bill, visited the Cape Cod style home and assessed the situation. He gave a proposal for a solution to make the home more comfortable. The Triple H Team first air sealed all bypasses and top plates in the crawlspace with our ZypFoam, then insulated the crawlspace walls with SilverGlo rigid foam board on the knee wall slope. Next the team installed TiteShell recessed light fixture covers and sealed with ZypFoam before dense-packing the attic floor with 16" TruSoft cellulose. The customer now has a more comfortable home and better energy efficiency year round.
This customer in Huntington was aware that his home may need more insulation. He requested that Triple H come to the home and assess the insulation. At this time it was suggested that he could benefit from SilverGlo insulation in his knee wall. SilverGlo is a high R-Value, graphite-infused insulation foam board, lined with radiant foil that reflects the sun's heat away from the home during the summer, and maintains the heat during the winter. By using SilverGlo, the homeowner will no longer feel the effects of hot and cold air penetrating the room.
This homeowner in Huntington, NY reached out to us hoping to get his attic insulated. When our Home Comfort Specialist Ryan came out to the home, he noted that the attic space was insulated with old batt insulation. It was unfortunately not air sealed. This explained the issues that the homeowner was having with uneven temperatures throughout the home. The solution Ryan came up with for this customer was we would remove the old batt insulation from the attic. From there we would air seal all penetrations to prevent any air leaking coming in or out of the home. Then we would add new blow in cellulose insulation, while keeping a catwalk space for the homeowner to have easy access. Now, this homeowner has a properly insulated attic!
