Bill learned about the benefits of an attic restoration and whole house fan when he saw an ad from Tyson Energy Solutions in Fresno Home Magazine. He was interested in reducing his heating and cooling costs and also making his indoor air quality better. When we came out and inspected his attic, we found that he only had about 4 inches of old, dirty insulation present. We determined that he was a great candidate for an attic restoration and whole house fan.
We took the following steps to restore Bill’s attic:
- removed the old insulation
- installed a QuietCool Stealth Pro 5.5 whole house fan
- cleaned and sanitized the attic using DSV sanitizer to remove contaminants and irritants
- air-sealed the attic floor with closed-cell foam to prevent air from transferring between the attic and Bill’s home
- installed rodent-proof barriers at potential entry points to keep rodents and other pests out
- blew in 13 inches of premium, fiberglass insulation to bring the attic to an R38 level
As a result of the attic restoration and whole house fan installation, Bill will experience the following benefits:
- reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 50-90%
- better indoor air quality
- less dust in his home
- a cool, comfortable home during summer
- a warm, toasty home during winter
Mark learned about the benefits of an attic restoration from the Tyson Energy Solutions ad in Fresno Home Magazine. He was attracted to the prospects of reducing his heating and cooling costs, improving his indoor air quality, and keeping his home a comfortable temperature year-round. We came out and inspected his attic and discovered that he only had about 5 inches of old, cellulose insulation present with rodent droppings littered throughout the attic. Mark decided that an attic restoration was needed to achieve his goals.
We took the following steps to perform the attic restoration for Mark:
- removed all old insulation and debris from attic
- cleaned and sanitized the attic using DSV sanitizer to remove contaminants, irritants, and odors
- air-sealed leakage points with closed-cell foam including top plates, registers, recessed lights, and wiring and plumbing penetrations
- installed rodent-proof barriers at potential entry points to keep rodents and other pests out of the attic
- blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, bringing the attic to the Energy Star-recommended level
Mark and his family now enjoy the following benefits:
- reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 50%
- better indoor air quality
- reduced dust in the house
- cool, comfortable home in summer and warm, toasty home in winter
- increased home resale value
Jessica learned about the benefits of proper attic ventilation through the Tyson Energy Solutions ad in Fresno Home Magazine. She was looking for a cost-effective way of keeping her home cool and lowering her monthly cooling costs. She contacted us and we came out and inspected her attic and discovered that she was the perfect candidate for a smart gable attic fan.
We installed the fan and paired it with Jessica’s phone so that she can check on the fan’s automatic operation according to temperature and humidity levels. We also block off the gable vent around the fan so that it correctly pulls hot air from inside the attic and dispels it out of the home.
As a result of the QuietCool Smart Gable Attic Fan 3.0 installation, Jessica’s attic will be 20+ degrees cooler during the summer, which will help reduce the strain on her HVAC system and lower her AC bills. It will also help extend the life of her roof as the roof deck won’t be exposed to such extreme heat.
Greg reached out to us in an attempt to keep his home a comfortable temperature without having to run his HVAC system constantly. He said that his home always felt hot during the summer and cold during the winter. We took a look in his attic and found that his insulation was low with only about 6 inches of fiberglass present. Greg decided that he wanted to add more insulation on top to bring his attic up to the R38 level recommended by Energy Star.
We began by air-sealing any visible leakage points to help prevent the flow of air between the attic and living spaces of the home. We then blew in 8 inches of premium, fiberglass insulation.
Now, Greg’s home is cooler and more comfortable in summer, warmer in winter, and he will enjoy reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 25% for as long as he lives in that house.
Arlan contacted Tyson because he had done some research and was interested in having an attic fan installed. He’d had Tyson come out to his house before and upgrade his insulation, so he was already familiar with Tyson and the quality of work we do. We came out and inspected his attic to ensure that the ventilation was appropriate for an attic fan, and we confirmed that it was. It’s vital to ensure that the positive intake is balanced with the exhaust so that the attic isn’t negatively pressurized, which would suck air out of the home’s living spaces and consume the conditioned air from the home.
We expertly installed a roof-mount solar fan, which was immediately ready to work since it was solar-powered.
As a result of the fan installation, Arlan’s attic will be cooler during extreme heat, which will help his HVAC system to be more efficient in keeping his home cool and comfortable. It will also help protect his roof from degradation as it won’t be as exposed to the extreme heat.
