Restoring balance and R-Value to an attic in Shadyside, OH 43947

Josh reached out because two bedrooms in his home were significantly colder than the rest of the house. While most of the attic had around 20 inches of insulation, those specific areas had little to none, creating a major imbalance.

 

This is something we see often. Even when most of an attic is insulated well, missing coverage in just a few areas can cause certain rooms to feel completely different from the rest of the home.

 

After evaluating the attic, we confirmed that those cold rooms were directly tied to the lack of insulation above them, along with air leakage that was allowing heat to escape. Our team focused on correcting the imbalance and rebuilding those problem areas the right way.

 

We sealed attic air leaks, sealed top plates and penetrations, addressed chimney-related leakage, and installed insulation dams to ensure proper containment. Then we installed insulation to proper levels in the affected areas so the entire attic system could perform consistently.

 

By bringing those under-insulated areas up to the same standard as the rest of the attic, we were able to eliminate the weak spots in the system. Now those colder rooms are much more consistent with the rest of the home, drafts have been reduced, and overall comfort has improved.

Reduce home energy costs in Smithfield, OH 43948

Ryker reached out because his older single-story home had cold floors and higher energy bills, even after installing a new furnace. With very little insulation in the walls or attic, the heating system was working harder than it should, and comfort just wasn’t where it needed to be.

Our team sealed and insulated the attic, tightened up air leaks throughout the attic floor, and insulated the attic access. By reducing heat loss and improving the home’s thermal envelope, we helped the new furnace operate more efficiently and deliver heat where it belongs.

Now, Ryker’s home is noticeably more comfortable, floors feel warmer, and energy costs are lower. The furnace is finally able to perform to its full potential, making the home more efficient and comfortable overall.

Richmond, Ohio Insulation

Brad wanted his attic insulated.  He called Home Environment Solutions and set up a free in home energy audit.   Russ came out and recommended Silverglo rigid foam.   Rigid foam is a popular insulating product for its durability, high insulating value, and versatility. 

 

 

Richmond, OH Attic Knee Wall

The attic bedroom in Brads home was always cold and uncomfortable.   He called Home Environment Solutions to schedule a free energy audit for his Richmond, Ohio home.   

When Russ arrived and saw the knee walls in the attic bedroom he immediately knew they were causing the problem.   The attic needed a thermal barrier.    

The HES team arrived and installed SilverGlo panels  and air sealed the attic.   They also added spray foam to the rim joist to prevent air transfer.  

Making a Cape Cod style home more comfortable in Richmond, OH

Eric contacted us because his Cape Cod–style home had high energy bills and drafty rooms that made it hard to stay comfortable. He also wanted better access to the attic for storage and maintenance and needed insulation improvements in key areas like the cathedral ceiling, knee walls, and ductwork.

Our team sealed and insulated the attic, installed an insulated scuttle cover, and upgraded insulation in the cathedral ceiling and knee wall areas. We also encapsulated the ductwork to reduce air loss and improved attic access so the space could be used more safely and effectively.

Now, Eric’s home is more energy efficient, draft issues are reduced, and the attic space is easier to access and maintain. These upgrades will help keep the home comfortable while lowering heating and cooling costs year-round.
