A client contacted us after he removed the old existing insulation himself. He was asking us only to put fresh new insulation. As the attic was empty, we noticed the existence of mold spores, as well as some sources of air leaks. Thus, prior to blowing in our cellulose insulation, we managed to seal all the air leaks and remove all the mold spores before putting around 17 inches of our TruSoft cellulose insulation to reach the thermal value of R60. As a result, the attic was now very well insulated, which will increase the energy efficiency and the residential confort of the house.
In Bromont, Quebec, our Systèmes Éconergie team completed a comprehensive attic insulation project to improve the thermal comfort and energy efficiency of a home. After detecting air leaks and poor heat retention, we carefully caulked the attic and applied our high-performance blown cellulose TruSoft insulation. Thanks to this work, the homeowner now enjoys a well-insulated attic, a more comfortable home in all seasons, and significant energy savings.
During a recent attic insulation project in Saint-Nazaire-D'acton, Québec, the homeowner who was still experiencing discomfort in his home despite having both fiberglass and cellulose insulation in the attic. Upon inspection, we explained that the amount of insulation present was still not sufficient to achieve the recommended thermal resistance of R60. Additionally, air leaks were still present beneath the existing layers, compromising the insulation’s effectiveness. To provide a permanent solution to this issue, we removed all existing insulation, thoroughly sealed every air leak, and then installed our high-performance TruSoft cellulose insulation in the adequate quantity to reach an R60 value, ensuring optimal comfort and energy efficiency.
Dans le cadre d'un récent projet, nous avons été confrontés à une isolation existante dans un grenier qui ne respectait pas la valeur thermique requise de R60, compromettant l'efficacité énergétique de la maison. Après une inspection minutieuse, nous avons commencé par retirer l'ancienne isolation inadéquate. Ensuite, nous avons procédé à un calfeutrage pour sceller toutes les fuites d'air susceptibles de provoquer des pertes de chaleur. Enfin, nous avons soufflé notre isolation en cellulose de haute qualité, atteignant ainsi la valeur thermique optimale de R60. Ce processus a permis d'améliorer considérablement le confort intérieur et de réduire les coûts énergétiques de la maison.
