Home Insulation Services Before & After Photos

“We fix uncomfortable homes!”  That is our motto.  Sometimes our projects are large and sometimes they are small.  In this case the homeowner just couldn’t stand the draft coming from their closet because of their drop down attic stairs. Their home was a 10 out of 10 if not for this area.

A shot with a thermal imaging camera showed us that cold air was seeping down into the home and unnecessarily so.

We installed one of our David Lewis Hatch Covers.  With an R-Value (resistance to heat flow) of R20 this light weight cover will prevent that cold air flow in the winter.

Radiant barrier installed properly can lower the temperature in the attic, but if installed on the floor it can cause issues like condensation and in a short time become ineffective due to damage and dust. Here is another great radiant barrier job completed by the Dr. Energy Saver Team in Lewes, Delaware.

The radiant barrier installed in this Lewes, Delaware home was not installed properly. Radiant Barriers installed on the floor loose efficiency shortly after installation. This Lewes homeowner called Dr. Energy Saver to remove the radiant barrier and insulate with blown fiberglass to the recommended Energy Star level for Delaware.

Holes and spaces in your rim joist allows the hot or cold air from outside to enter through your basement and penetrate the floor boards.  This causes varying temperatures in different rooms of the home, and ultimately, an uncomfortable home.  It is important to make sure that all holes are covered up and air sealed to prevent this from happening.

The homeowner called us out for duct cleaning but after talking with our Home Comfort Specialist, the homeowners realized that they no longer needed to live with the cold floors in the winter.

The Dr. Energy Saver Specialist did a thorough inspection and showed the homeowners how the problem could be fixed by removing the old nasty fiberglass insulation and spray foaming the floor underneath their home.

This homeowner now has a more comfortable home in the winter time with warmer floors and has reduced the amount of heating and cooling they will need to keep the home more comfortable year round.
