Attic with ice dams
The attic had very little fiberglass insulation. This allows the heated air to pass through the attic faster and eventually escape outside.
Air flowing outside your house
Joints like this will clog because they allow the air you heated to escape your home faster.
Ventilation matts
We added ventilation mats to allow good air circulation in the attic and so the air does not come into contact with the insulation.
Air leaks
The attic hatch represents a major air leak. You have to isolate it.
Cellulose blowing
We blew 16” of cellulose to reach an R60 value. This ensures optimal comfort for homeowners and prevents the formation of ice dams in winter.
