Systèmes Éconergie Before & After Photos

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"

The problem

The attic’s insulation of Mr. Gagnon's house was insufficient. There were only 10 in. and less fiberglass mats, which was equivalent to an R-25 value. This made her home uncomfortable, rooms were often too hot in summer and too cold in winter, and her house’s energy costs were very high.

The solution

Reinsulate the attic to achieve an R-60 value and thus make the house more comfortable and energy efficient.

We sealed all the air leaks on the attic floor, insulated the duct system as well as the chimney and insulated the vertical wall separating two attic levels. Then we installed vents all the way through the soffits and then blew just over 16” of cellulose fiber.

We were contacted via one of our social media from a client, who was concerned about her deteriorating attic insulation. An inspection revealed rotting insulation, leading to high Hydro bills, poor air quality, temperature fluctuations, and structural damage. We removed the old insulation, sealed leaks, and installed about 17" of cellulose insulation. This renovation significantly, improved the client's home comfort and air quality, and protected its structural integrity.
