Attic Insulation- East Norwich, NY

This home in East Norwhich, NY was uncomfortable. Since attics are vented, we should think of them thermally as outside in the winter. In summer because of the suns radiant heat, they are much worse than outside, reaching 130˚ on summer days. We need to keep an absolute boundary between our living space and the attic so inside air doesn’t move to the attic in the heating season, and heat doesn’t pass up through our ceilings in winter, and down from our ceilings in the hot summer. Triple H went to this home in East Norwich, NY to help this homeowner have a properly insulated attic space so he doesn’t have these problems. They air sealed the attic to prevent leaks, then blew in 12” of cellulose insulation to the contained space. Now this homeowner will have a warmer, more comfortable, less draft home that you’ll notice everywhere.
