Home Insulation Services Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Chestertown, Maryland noticed the inefficiency of their HVAC unit inside of their attic not properly keeping the living space comfortable during the winter time. The attic temperature read at below 30 degrees. 

Dr. Energy Saver came out and inspected the home and informed the homeowners of the issue that they were facing. With their HVAC unit being inside of the cold attic, heating those duct lines were taking longer than expected and not properly being heated to the temperature of the thermostat. 

Our production team came right out and got to work. We installed our SunChuter Radiant Barrier which is installed right between the roof trusses. This will create an air space above it and reflect much of the roofs heat. We also air sealed the air penetrations and insulated the attic well above the required state amount. This will make the home a lot more comfortable, the HVAC unit will not run as much, and lowers the electric bills!

The second floor of Rick’s home was uncomfortable in the summer.  They had central air conditioning but the upstairs just never seemed to be cool enough.  Upon inspection we noticed that the R-value, a measure of the resistance to heat flow, could definitely use some improvement.  His attic also wasn’t air sealed.  Can lights, electrical penetrations, and top plates were causing unnecessary air flow.

We removed their existing insulation, air sealed the attic, and installed 17-inches of cellulose insulation providing them with the recommended R-value of 60 (over twice their previous insulation level).  With their attic reaching between 100 and 120℉ in the summertime, this new insulation will reduce the heat transfer happening and cool the second floor of their home making it more comfortable in the summer.  An added plus is they’ll also require less energy to keep the home heated in the winter.

This Kent County couple wanted a way to keep the attic cooler during the summer and warmer in the winter. The Dr. Energy Saver SuperAttic® Conversion System was the answer. The SuperAttic Insulation keeps the HVAC system protected from the harmful tempertures of the summer heat with the radiant barrier installed on both sides of the insulation panels.

Clean crawl space and proper duct work is very important for better living in the home. A vented dirt crawl space raises your cooling and heating cost by 15% to 25%. The installation shown here consists of CleanSpace® vapor barrier that is put down in multiple layers to completely seal off the home from ground.

Homeowner in Oxford, Maryland wanted to improve his crawlspace conditions. He noticed the abrupt climate change when he looked inside of his crawl space and knew it was time to do something about it. He called out Dr. Energy Saver who came out and inspected the crawlspace finding multiple reasons why the homeowner were not very satisfied with his current crawlspace conditions. 

Dr. Energy Saver came out and encapsulated their crawlspace. By removing the previous damp insulation , spray foaming the rim joist which will reduce heat loss and infiltration of cold air, adding CleanSpace with SilverGlo on the walls which lowers the humidity levels, a Sedona dehumidifier, and finishing it up with our patent EverLast CrawlSpace Door.

Overall, this lowers the humidity inside of the crawlspace, much warmer floors in the winter, and lowers fuel and electric bills!
