Systèmes Éconergie Before & After Photos

The problem

Mr. Zerczy had only 5 to 10 inches of fiberglass insulation in his attic. The lack of insulation made his house very uncomfortable and he had noticed that the energy costs were getting very high.

The solution:

Remove the fiberglass insulation in order to seal all air leaks on the attic floor such as joints, holes, and recessed. Install vents all along the soffits to ensure good ventilation of the attic and prevent air from coming into contact with the insulation and then blow a little more than 16 in cellulose fibers to obtain an R-60 value.

Problem:

Mr. Ouellette contacted Systèmes Éconergie because his attic was very damp and mold was growing. He wanted to have it checked by a specialist.

Solution:

Our team cleaned the surfaces with our MoldX2 product to remove the mold, added ventilation mats in the soffits to improve air circulation and avoid the humidity and then blew 16 in. of cellulose fibers.

Our client from Côte Saint-Luc contacted us due to a humid attic with an unpleasant odor and inconsistent temperatures. After identifying air leaks and mold issues during a free inspection, we carried out renovations that included removing old insulation, sealing air leaks with ZypFoam, and installing mold-resistant TruSoft cellulose insulation. The result was a well-insulated attic with reduced energy consumption and eliminated moisture issues, leaving the client very satisfied.

As our client stepped into his attic, he was surprised with its status, and thus contacted us to seek help. Upon conducting the inspection, our specialist confirmed client's concerns: There was excess moisture within the attic, which led to mold growth. He then explained to client that a proper attic insulation should be done in order to fix the problem once and for all. 

Upon approval of the contract, our production team started by removing the old deteriorated insulation. Then, they sealed all the air leaks within the attic, with our incredible ZypFoam, before blowing in 17'' of our TruSoft cellulose insulation. 

Client was satisfied with our services, and with the results. As he stated: "Now I can sleep well, knowing that the space above my head is safe and sound"
