Attic Insulation Before & After Photos

Our client in Mascouche reached out to us with concerns about the condition of their attic before winter. Upon inspection, we discovered excessive humidity and air leaks that compromised the home's energy efficiency and increased mold risk. We replaced the old insulation, sealed air leaks with ZypFoam, and installed 16 inches of TruSoft cellulose insulation to ensure optimal thermal protection and long-term moisture resistance for the winter.

When our client from Westmount, QC contacted us, he was dealing with an overheated attic despite having insulation installed, which increased his Hydro bills and made his home uncomfortable. Our inspection revealed inadequate insulation and significant air leaks, which we corrected by replacing the old insulation with our TruSoft cellulose and sealing the leaks. Due to our intervention, our client now enjoys a more comfortable and energy-efficient home.

Problem

Mr. Rouleau had problems with an ice dam on the roof of his house in winter. The main cause? Air leaks in the attic and poor insulation that sends heated air from your home to the roof.

Solution

The old insulation must be firstly removed and then the joints and holes pierced for the wires must be sealed with the polyurethane foam to prevent air leaks. After that we blew in 16” of cellulose.

Et Voila!

The problem

Mr. Simard contacted Systèmes Éconergie to properly insulate his attic. He had very high energy costs, as well as problems with an ice dam on the roof of his house in winter. Both of these problems are caused by the lack of insulation in his attic.

The solution

In order to solve Mr. Simard's problem, we removed the old fiberglass insulation, to seal all the air leaks in the attic (joints, ducts, etc.) and we blew a little more than 16’’ of cellulose fibers. With this solution, we achieve an R-61 value!
