A homeowner from Saint-Joseph-de-Sorel, Quebec, contacted us after the failure of his attic insulation attempt, despite a recent investment with another contractor. Our specialist explained that simply adding insulation without sealing air leaks does not solve issues related to heat loss and humidity. We therefore removed the old insulation, sealed meticulously all air leaks, and then installed TruSoft cellulose insulation up to an R60 thermal value. This solution reduces the risk of mold, improves residential comfort, and lowers energy costs.
Our client in Sorel-Tracy reached out since mold was starting to form in their attic. Mold formation in the attic can result in various problems, from health risks to structural damage. We removed the old insulation, air Sealed all sources of air leaks using our high-quality ZypFoam sealant, and installed the new cellulose insulation to reach R60The results were remarkable. The attic is now mold-free, energy-efficient, and comfortable.
The occupants of a house in Notre-Dame-de-Stanbridge were experiencing uncomfortable temperatures in winter and a heating system that ran constantly due to defective insulation and insufficient sealing. Our experts conducted a comprehensive assessment and then carefully caulked air leaks, duct penetrations, and light -holes.
We then applied our eco-friendly blown cellulose insulation, a solution recognized for its thermal performance (high R-value) and reduced environmental footprint. The results: a continuous thermal barrier, a more comfortable home year-round, and significantly lower energy bills.
Our client in Saint-Hyacinthe had concerns about their attic. They entered their attic and felt an uncomfortable heat. Additionally, they noticed a damaged section of their existing insulation. Our specialist explained to the client that this heat is one of the consequences of air leaks from multiple sources, such as recessed lighting and holes for wires and pipes. Similarly, these air leaks will cause uncomfortable cold during the winter months. Moreover, the amount of existing insulation was inadequate. The result is an increase in Hydro bills due to the overuse of heating and cooling systems.
Our solution included the removal of the old insulation, sealing all sources of air leaks, and installing new insulation.
Our client was very satisfied with the results, as well as the entire process followed by our team.
In Dunham, our Systèmes Éconergie team completely transformed a poorly insulated attic that was causing significant heat loss, high energy bills, and ice dams on the roof. Before our intervention, the insulation was inadequate and warm air was escaping through cracks and unsealed ducts, significantly reducing the home's energy efficiency. After a thorough inspection of the attic, we caulked air leaks, sealed ducts, and then installed our TruSoft blown cellulose insulation, an energy-efficient insulation recognized for its performance and durability. This method ensures consistent insulation, prevents ice dams from forming, protects the roof from moisture, and improves the home's thermal comfort year-round. Thanks to this work, the attic now complies with Quebec's energy efficiency standards, allowing the owners to enjoy a better-insulated space, lower heating bills, and lasting comfort.
