Poor attic insulation in Montréal, Qc

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2022 by Pamela Sabella

Challenge

The lack and the poor insulation of Mr. Robinson's attic made the rooms in his house very uncomfortable. He also noticed that the energy costs were getting higher, way more than the previous years.

He therefore contacted Systèmes Éconergie for a free estimate.

Solution

Our team of experts removed the old insulation to seal all air leaks on the floor such as the joints between the boards. They insulated the access hatch and blew 16” of cellulose fibers to have an R-60 value.

With this solution, Mr. Robinson will be able to regain the comfort of his home and will have less energy costs.

Project Summary

City: Montréal

Problem: Uninsulated attic and high energy bills

Solution: blowing 16'' of cellulose fibers

The attic did not have enough insulation. There was about 8" of insulation. It made the house very uncomfortable.

After removing the old insulation, we seal the joints between the boards as they are a source of air leakage.

We blew 16" of cellulose fibers to effectively insulate the attic with an R-60 value
