Upon the request of this customer in Dix Hills, we performed an in home evaluation. This customer felt that his rooms were too cold in the winter. Triple H Contracting air sealed all penetrations of the attic floor as well as insulated the attic with Borate Cellulose insulation. By insulating and air sealing the attic properly the customer will be warmer in winter and cooler in the summer.
A customer from Dix Hills was having problems keeping his house heated and it was causing his fuel and electric bills to be high. After an assessment it was recommended that he needed new updated insulation in his attic. Triple H went in and air sealed the whole attic. Now air leaks cannot get in and cause drafts. Then Triple H blew in 14” of TruSoft cellulose insulation to reach the optimum R-value. TruSoft will not burn, get moldy, or attract pests. It fills all gaps and odd shape voids. Triple H also added a catwalk to the mechanicals on the attic flat, making it easier for the customer to access them. Now this home will be warmer, more comfortable, and the fuel and electric bills will be lower.
Many older homes have no insulation in the exterior walls. The problems this causes are obvious. Heat flows from more (inside) to less (outside in winter) right through the walls, and the opposite in summer. Nearly all walls leak air, insulated or not, causing drafts. To fix these problems Triple H insulated the exterior walls with dense packed cellulose insulation. Dense packing is a technique that packs the insulation in very tightly, so all the insulation gets into all cavities so prevent air leakage. With your exterior walls properly insulated there would be less drafts, warmer, less dust/pollen, and a more comfortable home.
The Triple H Crew went to this home in Dix Hills, NY, and first cleaned up this attic space by removing all the old insulation. Then they air sealed all the leaks and blew in 16" of blown-in cellulose insulation. Now the home is more energy-efficient and comfortable year-round.
