Attic Insulation Before & After Photos

Our client in Boloeil had concerns about their attic. During the inspection, our specialist noticed excessive and uncomfortable heat, as well as damage to the existing insulation.

The specialist identified that this overheating was primarily due to air leaks coming from various sources, including around the chimney, recessed lighting, and through cable and pipe passages. These same air leaks also cause significant heat loss, resulting in a drop in indoor temperature during winter. This phenomenon increases the demand on heating and cooling systems, leading to higher energy costs.

Our solution involved removing the damaged insulation, thoroughly sealing all air leakage points, and installing new, high-performance insulation.

The client expressed complete satisfaction with the results, as well as with the professionalism of our team throughout the process.

This product is crucial before insulating the attic. If you have recessed lights, these protective boxes prevent air warmed by the light from entering the attic through the cane and wire holes. Hot air impairs insulation in the attic. If air leaks are not sealed properly, you are not taking advantage of the maximum capacity that your insulation can offer you. Hiding the problem under insulation is not the same as fixing it. In addition, the majority of insulation products are not flame retardant. It is dangerous to put insulation directly on recessed lights.
