Attic Insulation Before & After Photos

In Outremont, Quebec, a homeowner was facing a serious thermal comfort issue: his house was losing heat quickly in winter and staying too warm in summer due to old, inefficient attic insulation. Air infiltration was exacerbating energy loss, driving up his heating and cooling bills. Our Systèmes Éconergie team stepped in to fix the situation. We started by removing the old, damaged insulation, then carefully caulked all air leaks to improve airtightness. Finally, we applied TruSoft® blown cellulose insulation, a product known for its energy efficiency, durability, and ability to provide uniform coverage. Today, the attic is perfectly insulated, and the homeowner enjoys a more comfortable home, improved indoor air quality, and substantial energy savings in every season.

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!
