The interior drywall would be covered in condensation every winter and cause streaks in the paint that the homeowner would then have to touch up every year. The problem was caused by the interior vertical wall on the vaulted ceiling being exposed to the attic without sufficient insulation providing a good thermal barrier between the warm interior air that was rising, coming in contact with the interior wall exposed to the cold temperature inside of the attic. Our solution was to install an R20 foam board with a radiant barrier on either side across the vaulted vertical wall and air seal between the insulation and the wall.
Once this attic was assessed by our Home Energy Consultant, it became very clear why their homes HVAC system was working overtime to keep this home warmed. Lower levels of insulation in some areas of the attic and other areas with more insulation is thermal bridging. This unfortunately can cause structural damage and lots of heat loss if left alone over time. We removed all insulation, air sealed, added new stabilized Cellulose Insulation. Customer saw a huge energy savings in their monthly utility bill
This attic had visible mold and was lacking insulation. After remediation we removed the insulation, air sealed and added all new cellulose
Insulation.
Our customer found us at a local Home Show. He mentioned in his home he had warmer rooms in the summer and cooler rooms in the winter. Our company came in and removed all insulation, air sealed and added new TruSoft Cellulose Insulation to a R-Value of R49. He mentioned once completed with the job he notice a big difference and now his HVAC system is not kicking on all the time and was happy with our process and saving money on his utility bills.
We first meet our customer at a Home and Garden show and he was very interested in having us come in and evaluate his attic because he was having warm rooms in the summer and colder rooms in the winter. Our company came in and removed all the insulation, cleaned the mold, air sealed the attic and added Cellulose Insulation to resistance R60. His HVAC now isn't running all the time.
