Jared contacted us because his 1000-square-foot home was hot and uncomfortable. He was concerned that the summer months would become unbearable, not only temperature-wise but also in terms of his cooling costs. When we inspected his attic, we found that there was little to no insulation, maybe 1-2 inches, and there were numerous holes, goas, and cracks where hot attic air was able to flow into the living spaces of his home. We determined that performing an attic restoration would be the best option for him.
We began the attic restoration process by removing the old insulation and all of the debris that was scattered throughout the attic. Next, we cleaned and sanitized the attic using DSV sanitizer. We then meticulously air-sealed the attic, including all top plates, wire and plumbing penetrations, registers, and recessed lighting. We also installed rodent-proof barriers to prevent rodents and other pests from entering the attic space. Once the attic was sealed, we blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to a height of 14 inches, bringing Jared’s attic up to the Energy Star-recommended R38 level.
As a result of our comprehensive attic restoration, Jared and his family will enjoy better indoor air quality, more comfortable temperatures in their home year-round, and reduced heating and cooling costs for as long as they live there.
Jacob reached out to us specifically to add insulation to what he already had in his attic. He had been in his attic and knew that his insulation level was low. When we inspected his attic, we agreed. He only had about 6 inches of insulation present, well below the Energy Star-recommended 14 inches. However, Jacob wanted to exceed the recommended level and have insulation added to bring him up to 18 inches. We determined that an insulation upgrade would be his best option to help keep his home’s temperature comfortable year-round.
We began by air-sealing visible leakage points using closed-cell foam. We also ensured that all soffit vents were cleared and able to ventilate properly. Lastly, we blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to a height of 18 inches.
As a result of the insulation upgrade, Jacob will experience a cooler, more comfortable home during summers, a warmer home during winters, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 30% for as long as he lives in the home.
Daniel reached out to us because his home constantly felt hot and stuffy during the summer months. He had a vaulted ceiling in his living room, which felt like it was the hottest room in the house. We came out and inspected his attic and found that his insulation was low, with only about 4-5 inches of old, cellulose insulation present. In addition, there were numerous holes, gaps, and cracks which was allowing air to flow between the attic and the rooms of the home. His vaulted ceiling was the main culprit. We also found multiple HVAC ducts that were broken and leaking conditioned air into the attic and contaminating the air in the living spaces of the home. We determined that a full attic restoration was needed, as well as repairing the broken ducts, and applying spray foam on the vaulted ceiling in order to insulate it and prevent air flow.
We began by removing all of the old insulation and sanitizing the attic, eliminating the irritants and contaminants. We then installed rodent-proof barriers to prevent rodents and other pests from entering the space. We then carefully air-sealed all potential leakage points to prevent air from flowing between the attic and the living spaces of the home. Next, we applied two inches of spray foam to the vaulted ceiling to insulate it and prevent air leakage. Lastly, we blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, bringing the attic to the Energy Star-recommended level.
As a result of the full attic restoration we performed, Daniel and his family will enjoy a cool, comfortable home during summers, a warmer home during winters, less dust and better indoor air quality, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 50% for as long as they live in the home.
Kim contacted us because she was looking to upgrade her rental property and had worked with Tyson Energy Solutions before. With the work we had previously done for her, her energy bill during the summer had been reduced to only $200, so she was confident that an insulation upgrade could help her rental property too. We inspected her attic and found that there was only 5 inches of insulation present, so we determined that an insulation upgrade would indeed be her best option to achieve a more comfortable home for her tenant.
We began by air-sealing visible leakage points and removing the debris from an old swamp cooler that was no longer being used in the attic. We then blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to a level of R38, or 14 inches.
As a result of the insulation upgrade we performed, Kim’s tenant will enjoy a cooler, more comfortable home during winter, and warmer home during summer, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 30%. Kim will also be able to use this as a selling point when she goes to rent her property to NY future tenants.
Hrach reached out to Tyson because he wanted to keep his home more comfortable. His home was noticeably colder in winter and warmer in summer. Because of this, his heating and cooling costs were higher because he constantly had to run his HVAC system. We came out and inspected his attic and found that his insulation was extremely low with only about two inches present. We determined that an insulation upgrade would best help him to reduce his heating and cooling costs and make his home more comfortable.
We began by air-sealing visible leakage points. We then blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to a height of 14 inches, bringing the attic to the Energy Star-recommended R38 level.
As a result of the insulation upgrade we performed, Hrach and his family will now enjoy a warmer home in the winter, a cooler home in summer, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 30% for the life of the home.
