Creating a Conditioned Attic in Harrington, DE

Homeowners in Harrington, DE wanted to create a conditioned attic out of their vented attic. 

These homeowners had dirty and old attic insulation that needed to be removed. After the many months or years that insulation sits in the attic, it collects dirt, dust, rodents, etc. 

Not only did they need new their old insulation removed, they also needed a product that would properly insulate their vented attic. 

Vented attics can reach extreme temperatures do to air leakage. This causes the attic to not be suitable for storage as well as causes high utility costs.  

Dr. Energy Saver Delmarva has installed closed cell spray foam in layers along the bottom of the roof deck and sealed to the perimeter of the ceiling. This creates an airtight cap which stops air from leaking in or out of the attic. 

After spray foam insulation, the attic can be used for storage, the home is less drafty and it helps lower utility costs.

Crawl Space Encapsulation in Dover, DE.

This homeowner in Dover, DE was struggling with their crawl space. Their crawl space was leaking water and was not properly insulated causing access water, mold, humidity and high utility costs.

 

Dr. Energy Saver has installed a SmartSump, Drainage Matting, SilverGlo and a CleanSpace Encapsulation system to solve these homeowners concerns.

 

The SmartSump is installed at the lowest point in the crawl space. There, the SmartSump will collect access water and pump it outside.

 

The Drainage Matting is dimpled and installed over the crawl space floor to provide space for water flow.

 

SilverGlo insulation is installed along the walls of the crawl space to prevent any air flow into the crawlspace.

 

Finally, the crawl space is encapsulated. The CleanSpace Encapsulation liner is installed over the drainage matting and fastened to the walls. The results are much lower humidity in the crawl space, a dry, clean crawl space and lower utility costs.

 

These homeowners can finally live comfortably in their own home!

 

Attic Insulation in Dover, DE

Insufficient insulation and lack of air sealing was causing this homeowner discomfort in the summer months.  There were parts of the home that were just too warm and clammy.

We removed the old, dirty insulation, airsealed, and blew in 17’’ of cellulose to increase their r-value of 19 up to 60.  Secure dams keep the insulation in place and decking not only provides storage, but allows easy access to anyone needing to examine the attic in the future. 

SilverGlo Attic Insulation in Dover, DE

Even though this attic appears to be well insulated the homeowners still dealt with uncomfortable conditions in their home year round.  After meeting with one of our Certified Home Comfort Specialists, these homeowners decided to upgrade their attic with our SilverGlo rigid foam board insulation.  Infused with graphite in the foam that acts as tiny heat reflectors, the R-value of SilverGlo is 24% higher than standard EPS foam making the home that much more comfortable and efficient.  Just so the insulation doesn't have to do all of the work alone, SilverGlo has radiant barrier on both sides which reflect heat taking it's efficiency level even higher.
