Making a Home More Comfortable in Sturbridge, MA

This homeowner in Sturbridge, MA met us at a home show and expressed some concerns in their home to us. Their main concern was how cold it was inside the home all winter, even with the heat running constantly. They were also concerned with how hot it was inside the home during the winter with AC on. 

During our evaluation, we noticed that they did have old insulation in their attic that was inefficient. They also did not have their duct work insulated. This can be a huge issue because the air that you are paying to heat and cool your home will not come out at the temperature it should due to the extreme environment in an attic. All of the old insulation is removed, and we begin to air seal around the duct-work with our Silver-Glo foam insulation boards. Then we spray our Spray Foam insulation around the duct work to completely seal it. This will make the air delivered to the rooms in the home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Then we create an insulated catwalk for storage and to be able to access your duct-work! Next, we blow our TruSoft Cellulose insulation into the attic. Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver this home is more comfortable, has more even temperatures, and energy efficient!
