Insulation Services Before & After Photos

A homeowner from Jericho had requested a free home energy assessment. This home would greatly benefit from proper insulation. We used a radiant barrier to help improve this home. A radiant barrier is a reflective surface that gets installed on the vertical walls with insulation. By using a radiant barrier it could make as much as a 15 or 20 degree difference in the temperature of this attic. A radiant barrier actually reflects the heat energy back towards its source. This will make the home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. It will also help save on the cost of utilities. 

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.

During a dense pack exterior wall project, the siding is removed temporarily as necessary and an approximate 2" holes are drilled through the wall sheathing. A fill tube is inserted up and down into the wall cavity to not only fill, but dense pack the wall cavities. Dense packing is a technique that packs the insulation in very tightly. The wall cavities are dense packed with cellulose insulation which can get into all the irregular shaped cavities when packed in. The holes and then plugged and the siding is put back. 

This customer from Wantagh requested an estimate for insulation in his master bedroom. The homeowner felt that his room was too cold in the winter and too warm in the summer. After assessing the insulation levels in the knee wall of the master bedroom it was decided the current insulation needed to be removed and replaced. Triple H removed the old R19 insulation and replaced it with blown in cellulose insulation. After the completion of the project the customer will be warmer and will also see an improvement in their utility bills.

The Triple H Crew went to this home in Bethpage, NY that was in desperate need of updated attic insulation. The crew removed the old batt insulation, and processed to air seal all areas of the attic to prevent from any air leakages. They then added 16" of blown in cellulose insulation to have the optimum R-value of R60. Now this homeowner will have a more comfortable home year round and there house will be more energy efficient.
