The Georgetown family wanted to improve the energy efficiency of their home, particularly in their garage. They reached out to Carolina Energy Conservation for an energy evaluation. After assessing their needs, it was determined that the best solution was to install blown-in cellulose insulation in the garage attic. Blown-in cellulose insulation is an excellent way to enhance energy efficiency in a home. It is made from recycled paper products and treated to be fire-retardant. This type of insulation effectively fills gaps and voids, reducing air leakage and heat transfer. As a result, it helps maintain a consistent indoor temperature, reduces the workload on heating and cooling systems, and ultimately lowers energy costs.
This family from Pawleys Island wanted to brighten one of the closets in their home. They approached Carolina Energy Conservation to inquire about installing a Solatube. After assessing their home, a Solatube was installed, significantly improving the natural light in the closet. The design of the Solatube allows for bright, consistent light without damaging or bleaching any clothing, furniture, or floors within the room. It also allows for the most light output year-round by bending low beams in wintertime and bending the overpowering light of midday summer. It also has a solar-powered nightlight for visibility at night without the need to waste any electricity making the home more energy efficient overall.
A family in Pawleys Island sought to improve their home's energy efficiency and turned to Carolina Energy Conservation for an energy evaluation. After a thorough evaluation, they decided the best option was to install open-cell spray foam insulation. This type of spray foam is perfect due to its excellent ability to provide superior thermal insulation, which will help the home maintain a more consistent temperature. Open-cell spray foam expands upon application, filling gaps and cracks to create a comfortable indoor environment. With the installation of open-cell spray foam, this family will have an easier time maintaining a consistent temperature in their house while reducing heating and cooling costs.
A homeowner in Pawleys Island faced the challenge of sweating ducts that were affecting their home's comfort and energy efficiency. They turned to Carolina Energy Conservation for a reliable solution. After a comprehensive energy evaluation, it was determined that encapsulating the ducts with spray foam would be the best option. This method not only sealed the ducts effectively but also provided excellent thermal resistance. With the spray foam now applied, the homeowner can breathe easier, knowing this upgrade will prevent moisture buildup and significantly enhance the overall energy efficiency of their home, creating a more comfortable and sustainable living environment.
This homeowner had Carolina Energy Conservation come inspect their crawlspace in 2021 after noticing the under-house insulation was falling down throughout. We were able to encapsulate the area and add a dehumidifier, so the space is now a controlled environment. The homeowner has us out each year for dehumidifier maintenance, which helps honor the manufacture warranty. The service tech also resecured where a television contractor had moved some encapsulation tape.
We are ready to keep those floors feeling comfortable, no matter the temperature outside and keep the studs under your home healthy and moisture free. Call us today for a free crawlspace insulation inspection.
