Mr. Leduc contacted Systèmes Éconergie for a free estimate because he wanted to re-insulate his attic. He did well, because our specialist who went there noticed that his attic was very poorly insulated. In some places there were only 5 in’’ of fiberglass!
Good attic insulation is important for home comfort and lower energy costs. Our experts therefore removed the old insulation, sealed all the air leaks, insulated the access hatch and blew 16 in. of cellulose fibers to obtain an R-60 value.
City: Saint-laurent
Problem: uninsulated attic and low energy costs
Solution: blowing 16 in of cellulose fibers
Our client's attic was poorly insulated and had only 5 in'' of fiberglass in some places.
We seal air leaks like seams and holes to prevent the air you are heating or conditioning from escaping faster.
We blow 16" of cellulose fibers to achieve an R-60 value. It would take 22 inches to have the equivalent with fiberglass. Cellulose is therefore much more effective and efficient.
