Toms River Homeowner Fixes AC with Attic Air Sealing, Duct Repairs, and R-60 Insulation

A homeowner in Toms River, NJ, was struggling with an AC system that couldn’t keep up or maintain comfortable indoor temperatures. We hear this often—some HVAC companies might suggest installing a larger unit when that’s not the real issue. In many cases, homeowners say they’ve just had their system recharged, yet it still runs constantly, shutting off only briefly before starting again. These problems usually point to poor insulation, leaky ductwork, or air leaks in the attic—issues we specialize in solving. For this homeowner, we air sealed the attic, sealed all duct leaks, and upgraded the insulation with R-60 cellulose. We also improved access to the unit in the small attic space. The result: a more comfortable home where the HVAC system runs efficiently, maintains steady temperatures, and helps the homeowner save on energy costs.
