Insulation Upgrade from 7 Inches to 14 Inches Using Blown In Fiberglass in Fresno, CA

Michael contacted us because his cooling bills were extremely high, yet his home still felt hot and uncomfortable. He was looking to improve his home’s comfort and also reduce his cooling costs. When we came and inspected his attic, we found that it only had about 7 inches of insulation present. We determined that an insulation upgrade was the best option to help Michael achieve these goals.

We began by air-sealing visible leakage points in order to prevent air from traveling between the attic and the living spaces of his home. We then blew in fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, bringing the attic up to the Energy Star-recommended level.

As a result of the insulation upgrade, Michael will enjoy a cooler home during summer, a warmer home during winter, and reduced heating and cooling bills by up to 30% for as long as he lives in the home.
