R38 Insulation Upgrade to Improve Year-Round Comfort in Fresno, CA

Thomas reached out to us seeking a solution to the discomfort in his home, particularly the hot, stuffy summers and cold, drafty winters. After inspecting his attic, we discovered the root of the problem: there were only about 4 inches of old cellulose insulation, which was far from sufficient to keep his home energy-efficient and comfortable year-round. We determined that an insulation upgrade to R38 was necessary to improve his home’s thermal performance and reduce his HVAC usage.

To complete the R38 insulation upgrade, we followed these steps:

  • Air-sealed all visible leakage points to prevent air from escaping or entering the living spaces.
  • Blew in premium fiberglass insulation to reach the Energy Star recommended R38 level.
  • Provided Thomas with detailed before and after pictures to showcase the transformation.

As a result of the insulation upgrade, Thomas will enjoy a more comfortable home with even temperatures throughout the year. His HVAC system will run more efficiently, leading to reduced energy bills, and his home will no longer suffer from extreme temperature fluctuations between seasons.
