Tyson Energy Solutions Before & After Photos

Garrett contacted Tyson Energy Solutions because his house constantly felt hot and stuffy, despite running his air conditioner constantly. He was looking to reduce his cooling costs and make his home more comfortable during the hot summer months. When we inspected his attic, we found that things were a mess. His attic was littered with debris, including old batting insulation, roofing debris, and trash. The few inches of insulation that was present was not evenly installed throughout the attic, causing some areas of his house to be much warmer than others. We determined that an attic restoration was needed to help keep his home cool and reduce his cooling costs.

We began by removing the debris and old insulation. Once the attic was bare, we cleaned and sanitized the space using DSV sanitizer. We then identified potential leakage points where air could travel between the attic and living spaces of the home and sealed them using closed-cell foam. This included top plates, registers, recessed lights, and plumbing and wiring penetrations. Additionally, we installed rodent-proof barriers to keep rodents and other pests out of the attic. Lastly, we blew in 14 inches of premium, fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, bringing the attic up to Energy Star-recommended levels.

As a result of the attic restoration, Garrett and his family will be able to enjoy a cooler, more comfortable home in summer, a warmer home in winter, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 50% for as long as they live in the home.

Terry came across Tyson Energy Solutions through a Google search for the best insulation company in the Fresno area as he was researching how to help keep his attic cooler during the summer. He wanted his attic to be cooler during the extreme heat of the Central Valley summers because he wanted to help protect his HVAC system and roof from heat damage. Terry had been reading about attic fans and wanted to see if his home was a good candidate for one. We came out and inspected his attic and found that he was indeed a good candidate.

We installed the solar attic fan and it immediately began to work to ventilate the heat out of the attic and draw cooler outside air in. This reduction of heat will help his HVAC system to work less hard and will also keep his roof shingles from getting damaged by the extreme heat in the attic, which can be 30-40 degrees hotter than the outdoor air.

The attic fan we installed will help his attic stay cooler, which in turn will help his home stay cooler. It will also impact the efficiency of his HVAC system and have a protective effect on his roof. He can expect a more comfortable temperature in his home and reduced heating and cooling costs. The QuietCool fan also has a 15-year warranty, and because Tyson installed it, any repairs or warranty claims will be handled by us, free-of-charge.

Steve was referred to us by another Tyson customer who'd had work done and was pleased with the results. Steve had an uninsulated area in his home that he wanted insulated to make it a more comfortable temperature and to help reduce his heating and cooling bills. The area was a 350 sq. ft. room  so it made up almost 20% of the space in his home. 

We began the project by air-sealing visible leakage points with closed cell foam. This is done to help prevent airflow between the home's living spaces and the attic. We installed baffles to prevent the insulation from blocking the soffit vents, ensuring that the attic's ventilation would remain intact. We then blew in premium fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, which is the Energy Star-recommended level for our climate in the Fresno area. 

Because of the insulation added in Steve's home, he will experience an overall more comfortable temperature in his home and reduced heating and cooling costs for as long as they reside in that house.

Maryann called us because her home felt exceptionally hot and uncomfortable, particularly in the upstairs portion of her home. When we inspected her attic, we discovered that her insulation was lacking: she only had minimal fiberglass batting insulation in the attic, and it was not installed properly. This meant that the hot attic air was easily able to flow into the living spaces of the home, making it hot. We determined that in order to make Maryann's home more comfortable and energy-efficient, we needed to perform an attic restoration.

We began by removing all of the old batting insulation and debris from the attic. We then cleaned and sanitized the attic using DSV sanitizer in order to eliminate dirt, mold, and other microbes. Next, we air-sealed the attic including top plates, plumbing and wire penetrations, registers, and recessed lights. We further sealed the attic by installing rodent-proof barriers to prevent rodents and other pests from entering the space. Lastly, we blew in fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, or 14 inches. This brought the home up to Energy Star-recommendations.

As a result of our comprehensive attic restoration, Maryann and her family will experience better indoor air quality, a cooler home during summers, a warmer home during winters, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 50% for as long as they live in the home.

David contacted us because he had just gone through his first summer in his new house and it had been incredibly hot and uncomfortable, despite running his air conditioner constantly. As a result, his cooling bills were high. He was looking to both reduce his bills and make his home more comfortable. We came out and inspected his attic and found that David had only 8 inches of insulation present, well below the R38 level recommended by Energy Star for our climate. We determined that an insulation upgrade was needed to help David achieve his goals. 

We began by air-sealing visible leakage points to help prevent airflow between the attic and the home's living spaces. Next, we blew in about 6 inches of premium, fiberglass insulation to bring his home up to an R38 level.

As a result of the insulation upgrade we performed, David and his family will now enjoy a cool, comfortable home in summer, a warm home in winter, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 25% for as long as they reside in that home.
