When our client from Westmount, QC contacted us, he was dealing with an overheated attic despite having insulation installed, which increased his Hydro bills and made his home uncomfortable. Our inspection revealed inadequate insulation and significant air leaks, which we corrected by replacing the old insulation with our TruSoft cellulose and sealing the leaks. Due to our intervention, our client now enjoys a more comfortable and energy-efficient home.
The problem
Mr. Simard contacted Systèmes Éconergie to properly insulate his attic. He had very high energy costs, as well as problems with an ice dam on the roof of his house in winter. Both of these problems are caused by the lack of insulation in his attic.
The solution
In order to solve Mr. Simard's problem, we removed the old fiberglass insulation, to seal all the air leaks in the attic (joints, ducts, etc.) and we blew a little more than 16’’ of cellulose fibers. With this solution, we achieve an R-61 value!
The problem:
Mr. Nasiri wants to re-insulate his attic. There is some insufficient air ventilation and an accumulation of humidity in the attic.
The solution:
Sealing and insulating the attic. Our team seals the air leaks present on the attic floor, clears the soffits, installs ventilation mats and blows in 16 inches of cellulose.
The problem
The lack of insulation in the attic of Mr. Fiset's house was one of the biggest problems. It had 10 in and less insulation wool. This affected the comfort of his home and the energy costs were getting higher than normal.
The solution
Remove the wool, seal the air leaks on the floor with our polyurethane foam, add ventilation mats and blow a little more than 16 in’’ of cellulose fibers for an R-60 value
Problem
Mr. Rouleau had problems with an ice dam on the roof of his house in winter. The main cause? Air leaks in the attic and poor insulation that sends heated air from your home to the roof.
Solution
The old insulation must be firstly removed and then the joints and holes pierced for the wires must be sealed with the polyurethane foam to prevent air leaks. After that we blew in 16” of cellulose.
Et Voila!
