In just one day we were able to transform this 100+ year old home attic space and make the whole home more comfortable year round with less drafts. The Customer was very happy in the end!
This poorly insulated knee wall space in Valley Strea, NY could lead to it being always cold in the winter and always hot in the summer, causing this space not be suitable for storage since its very hot or cold. The knee wall space could form the ceiling of the room below it, and the wall of it could be shared with an upstairs room. When a knee wall is not insulated it could cause these rooms to be uncomfortable to live in. Triple H insulated the knee wall space with SilverGlo foam board insulation. SilverGlo has a radiant barrier on both sides to reflect heat in the summer and keeps heat in the house in the winter. With the new insulation the home will be significantly more comfortable home.
To help this customer experience a more comfortable home all year long, Triple H insulated this attic space with 16" of blown in cellulose insulation and air sealed all air leaks in the attic to prevent drafts. The home now stays cool in summer and warm in the winter.
In this attic, we added a new storage platform, installed blown cellulose behind the plywood dams, and added baffles to the soffits to help with air ventilation.
The Triple H Crew insulated this attic by installing SilverGlo foam board insulation to the underside of the roof deck and walls. Then the roof slopes are dense packed with cellulose insulation to stop air flow and insulate. This customer's home is now comfortable all year and drafts are eliminated!
