Before & After Photos

This homeowner was finishing their basement and wanted to make sure that during the construction process he did something to better control the humidity in his basement.

Closed cell spray foam was the answer that Comfenergy provided.

This Vienna, VA home was suffering from summers that were too hot and winters that were too cold. This was having a serious negative impact on the comfort level of the home. Our sales professional Greg went out to the property to perform a full home inspection and find the best possible solution to the homeowner’s discomfort. After completing the inspection Greg explained to the homeowners that the primary cause of their discomfort was a poorly insulated attic that was completely lacking in any kind of proper air sealing. He determined that the best course of action to end their discomfort would be to air seal the attic to stop any air leaks and to install new high-end insulation. After the homeowners agreed to Greg's solution our service crews went out to get to work on the home. The crews started by removing all of the old ineffective insulation that was failing to protect the home. After that, they apply ZypFoam air sealant to plug all the potential leaks in the attic to prevent uncontrolled unconditioned air from flowing freely into the home's living spaces. Finally, the crew installed the new TruSoft cellulose insulation to keep the home comfortable year-round.

In the summer, attic temperatures can reach over 120 degrees.  In the winter, attic temperatures can drop to below freezing.  Trying to pass cold air through a 120-degree metal HVAC duct in the summer just won't work well and moving heated air through a cold metal HVAC duct in the winter will not either.  this can cause an HVAC system to run more often than it should, increasing energy costs and leaving homeowners with rooms that are less comfortable than others.  We removed the existing insulation in this attic in order to expose the full HVAC duct system so that it could be encapsulated with Spray Foam.  This will protect the conditioned air traveling inside.  

A homeowner in Burke, VA did NOT like her attic. It was dark and icky and not an area that she liked to be in. She noticed dirt on her bedroom ceiling. The dirt was coming from the air vents and the attic was directly above her bedroom. She tried getting her ducts cleaned and a new HVAC system installed, but the dirt kept coming. Finally, she gave us a call at Comfenergy to address the space she'd rather not think about- the spooky attic. 

Our Sales Professional, Carl, could immediately see the problem. The insulation in this attic hadn't been replaced in a very long time. The decaying insulation contained pests droppings, dirt, and lots of dust. There were a few mold spots in places as well. After agreeing on a solution, the Comfenergy Production Crew got to work. We removed and properly disposed of the yucky old insulation and vacuumed out the space to get rid of all the dirt and grime. The attic was air sealed and fresh, clean ProWool Premium Insulation was installed. The duct system was encapsulated with polyurethane spray foam, the metal chimney was properly insulated, and Stefans' Radiant Barrier was installed along the underside of the roof rafters. 

Now this homeowner's attic is spectacular instead of spooky.  No more dirt on the bedroom ceiling, and she now had attic insulation that she would never have to replace again. ProWool does not lose its effectiveness over time and will not sag, settle, or be damaged by moisture. This attic make-over made this customer's home cleaner, more comfortable, and will save her money on her energy bills.
