Insulated attic floor with TruSoft Cellulose to make the home warmer, more comfortable, and lower fuel and electric bills.
This North Grosvenordale, CT homeowner reached out to Fogarty's Home Services because her pipes had frozen several times. She wanted to resolve this issue so it didn't happen again, and we were happy to help. Besides allowing heat to flow out by conduction, this homeowner's stone walls were letting outside air to leak in, since the home has lower air pressure at the bottom and sucks air in. The sill plate and rim joist above the stone wall were leaking air as well. To fix this very uncomfortable situation, Fogarty's Home Services sprayed the walls, sill plate, and rim joists two-part, expanding, closed cell, polyurethane foam insulation, about 1.5" thick. Because this basement isn't finished, the foam was covered with a white thermal coating. Our customer will notice a DRAMATIC difference in the temperature and comfort of her basement, the floors above it, and her home in general. The results are a much warmer basement, far less drafts, much warmer floors above the basement, a more comfortable home that is easier to heat, and lower energy bills. We Fix Uncomfortable Homes!
This homeowner in Thompson, CT called us to their home to help with cold floors and humidity. This home had a nasty, dirt crawlspace that was impacting those concerns!
First, we remove all of the old, nasty insulation any debris in the crawlspace. Next, we install our dimpled plastic drainage matting across the floor to create an airspace and thermal break. TerraBlock™ floor insulation is installed over the dimpled drainage mat. Now, our heavy-duty, 20 mil thick CleanSpace™ crawl space encapsulation liner is installed permanently across the dirt floor. It is sealed with mechanical fasteners to the walls and spiked to the floor. This will drastically reduce the cold floors and keep water and moisture out of the crawlspace, and make this home more comfortable and energy efficient!
This homeowner in Auburn, MA called us out to their old home for an energy evaluation. We concluded that the old fiberglass insulation in the attic was not efficient. Their home was still freezing in the winter, and super hot in the summer.
We removed all of the old, nasty fiberglass insulation and got ready to use our SuperAttic treatment for this homeowner. We plan to install our SilverGlo foam insulation boards on the underside of the roof deck and the gable end. In this after photo, you can see the SilverGlo was installed on the gable ends! Next up, under the roof deck!
Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions this home will have more consistent temperatures, and is more energy-efficient!
This customer contacted Fogarty's Home Services because the floors in her home were cold, she was finding it more difficult to keep the house warm and she had high energy bills. Our Home Comfort Specialist identified uninsulated walls in the basement which is contributing to making the home uncomfortable.
We installed Foamax foam insulation board on the basement walls with Dr. Energy Saver’s proprietary Foam-Tite fasteners. The customer now has a warmer, more comfortable basement, warmer floors above basement, less condensation in the summertime and lower fuel bills.
