Roy contacted us because he was looking to have the attic space above his garage insulated. Because he spends a lot of time in his garage and he also wants it to stay cooler because of his vehicles, he needed insulation installed. We inspected the space and found that there was no insulation present, so we determined that an insulation upgrade to R38 was needed.
We began by air-sealing visible leakage points using closed-cell foam in order to prevent the flow of air between the attic and the garage. We then blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to an R38 level.
As a result of the insulation upgrade, Roy's garage will be much cooler during the summer months, warmer during the winters, and will be more comfortable year-round for as long as he resides in the home.
Yvonne reached out to us because her home constantly felt hot and stuffy, despite the fact that her air conditioner ran constantly. She was looking to not only keep her house cool, but also reduce her cooling bills, which were high in her 2300 sq. ft. home. When we inspected her attic, we discovered that she only had about 4 inches of insulation present, and there was evidence of rodent activity, including deceased rodents sitting atop her old insulation. Because of this, we determined that a comprehensive attic restoration was needed.
We began the process by sucking out all of the old insulation. We then cleaned and sanitized the attic using DSV sanitizer, eliminating contaminants and irritants from the space. Next, we installed rodent-proof barriers to prevent rodents and other pests from entering the attic in the future. We also thoroughly air-sealed all holes, gaps, and cracks using closed-cell foam. This included top plates, plumbing and wiring penetrations, registers, and recessed lighting. This is done to prevent air from flowing between the attic and the living spaces of the home. Lastly, we blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, bringing the attic up to the Energy Star-recommended level.
As a result of the total attic restoration we performed, Yvonne and her family will experience a cool, comfortable home during hot months, a warmer home during winter, better indoor air quality, and reduced heating and cooling bills by up to 50% for as long as they reside in the home.
Joel had a 500 sq. ft. addition in his home that needed additional insulation added. When the addition as built, it had insulation added, but it was only about 8 inches, 6 inches below the Energy Star recommendation for our climate here in the Central Valley. We determined that an insulation upgrade to R38 was needed to help Joel's home maintain a comfortable temperature year-round while also reducing his heating and cooling costs.
In less than two hours, we blew in the additional insulation, bringing the home to the Energy Star-recommended R38 level.
As a result of the insulation upgrade, Joel will enjoy reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 25% and a more even, comfortable temperature for as long as he resides in that home.
The homeowner contacted us because his house was extremely hot -- up to 84 degrees -- despite the fact that his air conditioner was running constantly. When we came out and inspected his attic, we found that his insulation was low, only about 3 inches. Because he was concerned about the temperature as well as his summer energy bills becoming unmanageable, we determined an insulation upgrade was the best course of action.
We began by air-sealing visible air leakage points with closed-cell foam. This helps to prevent air from traveling between the attic and the living spaces of the home. Then, we blew in Johns Manville premium, fiberglass insulation to a depth of 14 inches to bring the attic up to the Energy Star-recommended R38 protection.
As a result of the insulation upgrade, the homeowner and his family get to enjoy a more comfortable home, reduced heating and cooling costs year-round, and an HVAC system that is able to run more efficiently for as long as they live in their home.
Ron reached out to Tyson Energy Solutions because he had an HVAC technician to come out to his house to fix his AC during the summer, only to be told that there was no issue with his HVAC system. He was referred to us, and when we came out to his home, he told us that his house constantly felt hot and his air conditioner ran constantly. We determined that a whole house fan would best serve his needs.
We first inspected his attic and found the ideal location to place the fan. Next, we installed the QuietCool Stealth Pro 5.5 whole house fan. Lastly, we demonstrated to Ron how to use the fan's wireless, 3-speed timer remote.
We checked back with Ron the next day and he said that he loved his whole house fan, and that just the first day after installation, he didn't have to turn on his AC until noon, whereas it normally would have already been running at 8:00 am. Not only will the whole house fan help keep Ron's home cooler, but it will improve his indoor air quality and reduce his dependency on his air conditioner by up to 50%.
