These homeowners had no insulation in their knee-wall attic space. This space is actually extremely important to have insulated. It is in direct contact with the roof and outside temperatures and can easily transfer its heat into the adjoining room, or down the walls to the rest of your home. Dr. Energy Saver installed SilverGlo rigid board insulation in Camden, DE in order to keep heat out of this space.
This attic ceiling has been upgraded from no insulation to our SilverGlo foam board insulation. The SilverGlo has a reflective property to reflect the heat from the sun outside and to keep the heat that you pay for inside. This Camden, DE attic insulation project looks great!
Dr. Energy Saver focuses strictly on the homeowner needs inside the home while finding any health or durability concerns. If our home comfort specialist finds anything that could potentially affect the living conditions inside the home, we bring it to your attention.
These homeowners in Chester, Maryland were suffering from high energy cost and microbial growth coming from their crawl space.
Our solution to fix that problem involved us spray foaming the rim joist inside the crawl space, adding CleanSpace Drainage Matting, our exclusive Everlast Crawl Space Door, and Silver-Glo on the walls. Ensuring the homeowner needs were met and another successful Dr. Energy Saver Project!
This home in Rock Hall, MD underwent a Clean Space™ crawlspace encapsulation by Lawson Home Services. Take a look at the difference in the before and after photos.
Homes in the past were built with ventilated crawlspaces. But looking back with the information we have today, we see how this resulted in big problems: cold floors in winter, and mold formation in the musty damp dirt-floor crawlspace that leads to rotting of the wooden structures. And that's just the start of the problems. The mold gives off spores in dry fall and winter weather, dangerous allergens that can result in sinus problems and asthma for sensitive occupants. No wonder everyone gets sick in the winter.
The occupants of this home will be more comfortable and healthier this winter, and will begin to see lower utility bills. That's a win-win situation all the way around!
