Mr. Donovan found his home uncomfortable. The rooms were often too hot or too cold. He also had far too high heating and cooling costs. What was the cause? A poorly insulated attic. He only had 8” of blown wool in his attic.
The solution
- Seal air leaks, insulate ducts, and blow out just over 16" of cellulose fibers
To improve the comfort of our client's home as well as reduce their energy costs, we removed the old fiberglass insulation to seal all air leaks on the attic floor, insulated the air ducts to avoid losses, and blew just over 16’’ of cellulose fibers.
City: Deux-montagnes
Problem: Poor insulated attic
Solution: Cellulose Fibers
Our client's attic had about 8" of blown wool, which won't help to have a comfortable home and keep the heat in the house.
A very important step is to seal the air leaks that are on the attic surface such as joints, holes, and others.
We installed vents to control the ventilation in the attic.
We blow just over 16" of cellulose fibers to achieve an R-60 value.
