Knee Wall Insulation- Rocky Point, NY

A customer contacted Triple H and was having comfort issues with the rooms upstairs being too cold. After an evaluation it was determined that their Knee Wall space was causing the discomfort. A Knee Wall space is created when a finished room is built within a sloped roof. With this space not being insulated the floor of the upper level, the ceiling of the lower level, and the knee wall are all cold in the winter and hot in the summer. Triple H went in and installed blocks of SilverGlo Foam insulation between the ceiling joist bays. SilverGlo also has a radiant barrier which gives some thermal benefits, so the insulation is not doing all the work. This will result in significantly warmer upstairs rooms in the winter and cooler in the summer, as well as gaining a space suitable for storage.
