Attic Restoration and Insulation Upgrade for Enhanced Energy Efficiency in Hanford, CA

Jacob contacted us because his home in Hanford was constantly overheating, making it difficult to keep comfortable without running his AC nonstop. After inspecting his attic, we discovered the culprit—only 4 inches of old cellulose insulation, which was not nearly enough to provide proper thermal protection. Additionally, the attic was filled with dust and debris, further reducing efficiency and indoor air quality.

To resolve these issues, we performed a full attic restoration. First, we removed all the old, deteriorated insulation, clearing out any dust and contaminants. We then sanitized the entire attic with Nisus DSV, a powerful disinfectant that eliminates bacteria, mold, and allergens, ensuring a cleaner and healthier home.

Next, we air-sealed all major leakage points—such as wire and plumbing penetrations, top plates, and vents—with closed-cell foam. This step is crucial in preventing unwanted air exchange between the attic and the living spaces, reducing strain on the HVAC system. Once the space was prepped, we installed premium blown-in fiberglass insulation, bringing the attic up to the recommended R38 level for maximum energy efficiency. Lastly, we cleared the soffit vents to improve attic ventilation and prevent future heat buildup.

With his newly restored attic, Jacob will experience a significantly more comfortable home with improved temperature regulation, lower energy bills, and better indoor air quality. His HVAC system will no longer have to work overtime, leading to long-term energy savings and increased home efficiency.
