Insulation Services Before & After Photos

When your homes skylight is not insulated properly, it can allow a lot of hot air to move from the attic into your home's living space. This was the problem at a home in Freehold, NJ. Their skylight was insulated by flimsy, fluffy, fiberglass insulation. So they called the experts at Dr. Energy Saver to solve the problem!

By encapsulating the framing of the skylight in 2" high density polyisocyanurate foam board you can heavily reduce the airflow and amount of heat moving through the cavity and into your home. Resulting in cooler rooms during the summer and warmer during the winter.

This family saved on their energy expenses with this simple fix! 

If your attic shares a vertical border wall with a room, generally this room is closer to the temperature of the attic than the rest of the house. This was the case of this Freehold, NJ home. The only thing that was standing between the room and the outside air was a thin piece of sheet rock and some weak, ineffective fiberglass insulation. In the summers, the room gets burning hot, and in the winters, it gets extremely cold! These homeowners decided to call us for help.

To stop the free movement of air through this wall, we created an airtight seal by filling all cracks and crevices with closed cell foam. We then covered the foam with two inch reflective polyisocyanurate foam board - resulting in a room that is consistent with the temperature throughout the rest of the house. Without that free-flowing air between the attic and the room, the homeowners are very comfortable!

This homeowner in West Windsor, NJ had an attic hatch that was not properly insulated or air sealed. The owner was paying more for their energy bills because conditioned air was consistently leaking into the attic. We air sealed the attic floor and the framing of the attic hatch using orange ZypFoam sealant. Our team created retaining walls to contain the TruSoft cellulose insulation that we blew-in. Next we created a catwalk and dense packed underneath the catwalk using TruSoft insulation. The catwalk is used to help the homeowner or technician reach any of the mechanicals for maintenance purposes. Finally to create a better air tight entrance we installed our SilverGlo insulation boards onto the attic hatch door.

This homeowner now has a much more comfortable and energy efficient home.

A conditioned room with an adjoining wall to the attic in Manalapan Township, NJ had exposed fiberglass insulation. Exposed fiberglass insulation does next to nothing to insulate. We can see evidence of this by the dirt built up on the exposed fiberglass insulation. The homeowner’s main comfort issues are in the conditioned adjoining room to the attic. If the attic isn’t air sealed, insulated, and ventilated properly the attic air will circulate through the attic and into the conditioned room. We installed our SilverGlo insulation panels which have a radiant barrier to reflect heat and the polystyrene foam is infused with graphite giving it a 24% higher insulation value per inch than standard EPS foam. In this after picture we are still in the process of insulating the rest of the attic.

The attic of a Manchester Township home had insufficient insulation, relying on exposed fiberglass that provided little protection. Our inspection uncovered problems with air sealing and ductwork leaks, which commonly lead to high utility bills and homeowner discomfort. To tackle these issues, our team used ZypFoam for air sealing, mastic tape for duct sealing, built retaining walls, and applied TruSoft cellulose insulation, resulting in an impressive R-60 insulation value. Consequently, the homeowner now experiences a more energy-efficient and comfortable home.
