Photo Album: Insulating a Kneewall in Wilmington, DE.
Homeowner's in Wilmington, DE needed their kneewall spaces insulated in their home.
What are kneewall's? A kneewall space is created when a finished room is built within a sloped roof. A short wall called a kneewall forms a triangular space which may or may not be accessible with a short door or access panel. Kneewalls are not good places for storage if they aren't insulated properly. These little rooms can get incredibly hot or cold, just like an attic can if not properly insulated.
To insulate the kneewalls, Dr. Energy Saver Delmarva will install SilverGlo along the walls of the kneewall. This will keep the kneewall insulated and prevent future air leakage.
