Photo Album: Insulation Needed in Drafty Felton, DE Home
Homeowner's in Felton, DE are suffering from drafts within their Cape Cod home. They needed a solution to help make their home more comfortable.
The second floor of Cape Cod homes are poorly insulated and have several knee wall spaces due to the pitched roof. This results in cold drafty rooms in the winter and warm, humid rooms in the summer. The knee wall spaces become dusty and too cold or warm to use for storage.
To solve this problem. Dr. Energy Saver will air seal and insulate the knee walls. The knee walls are insulated with SilverGlo and air sealed to prevent future air leakage. This will prevent the floor of drafts and keep rooms comfortable.
