During our free home evaluation in Ocean Grove, NJ, we discovered that the attic had not been air sealed and was poorly insulated. These issues were causing significant air leaks and reducing the home’s comfort and efficiency. To fix this, we sealed all top plates, gaps, cracks, and plumbing and wiring penetrations with foam sealant, stopping conditioned air from escaping into the attic. Once the air sealing was complete, we installed TruSoft cellulose insulation, bringing the attic up to the recommended R-60 level. As a result, the home is now more comfortable, and the homeowner is enjoying lower energy bills.
During our free inspection in Ocean Grove, NJ, we found that the can lights were leaking conditioned air into the attic. The attic also had inadequate insulation and lacked proper air sealing. By sealing the top plates and all wire and pipe penetrations, we were able to tighten up the home. We installed can light covers and sealed them with foam to stop air leaks. Once everything was sealed, we blew in TruSoft cellulose insulation to the optimal R-60 level. The “after” photo was taken before we added the full amount of insulation. Now, the homeowner enjoys a more comfortable home and lower monthly bills.
A homeowner in Long Branch, NJ, had a small little attic that was poorly insulated. With inadequate insulation this owner was dealing with cold and drafty rooms in the winter and stuffy and hot rooms in the summer. After inspecting the attic we also noticed the attic was not properly air sealed. We air sealed the attic floors, sealed any leaky ducts, used wooden retaining walls and sealed the wooden decking while blowing-in TruSoft cellulose insulation to the optimal R-60 value. The homeowner now has a properly insulated attic, improving comfort, energy efficiency, and indoor air quality.
