Crawl Space Upgrade in Toms River, NJ

This customer in the Silver Ridge development in Toms River NJ found that the crawl spaces in her new home had major concerns. The #1 concern was that there was no insulation in a fully vented crawl space. The second concern was that the moisture level in this crawl space could buckle wood floors above, develop mold, and make the house smell musty in the summer.

 

The best solution was to have Dave Hoh's Home Comfort & Energy Experts install a patented CLEANSPACE crawl space encapsulation system. This method resulted in a very dry, warm, clean and safe crawl space that will last throughout the life of her home.

Attic Insulation and air sealing the attic in Toms River, NJ

This homeowner retired to the Holiday City-Berkeley neighborhood in Toms River, NJ. The owner contacts us because their house felt cold and drafty during the winter. Our customer also had concerns about the attics old fiberglass insulation being inadequate.

When our team inspected the owner’s attic we found the attic was not air sealed and was poorly insulated with old fiberglass insulation. Our team spray foamed the rim joists and properly air sealed the attics gaps, holes and soffits with our orange ZypFoam sealant. Finally our crew built catwalk dams to contain our Blown-in TruSoft Cellulose insulation. After we Blown-in our TruSoft Cellulose insulation we clean the attic up so the owner can enjoy their properly insulted attic.

Our customer now has a more comfortable and energy efficient house.

Attic Duct Systems in Toms River, NJ

Before picture shows a typical attic heating, cooling and duct system. The main metal trunks and plenums are not sealed and only have a 1/2" liner inside. The results are in the summer when the system is trying to deliver approx 57 degree air through ducts, that are heating up to 130 degree surface temperatures, they lose a tremendous amount of energy. In this case the system was not keeping up with demand on hotter days.   The opposite is true in winter- ducts try to deliver 110 degree air through ducts that are cooling down to 30 degrees or less. The after picture shows  Duct Encapsulation, the duct system is sealed and insulated with approx 3" of closed cell spray foam. This impoved the peformance of the duct system by 40% or more and now the system keeps up even on the hottest days!!  If you have a modern system it makes sense to upgrade ducts, instead of installing a larger more expensive system to solve the problem.
