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.
We elevated the insulation thickness from just 6 inches to a substantial 14 inches. This substantial upgrade ensures maximum energy efficiency and brings unparalleled comfort to your home. Revel in the remarkable difference this enhanced insulation will make in optimizing your space!
The homeowner contacted Tyson Energy Solutions because of his concern over rising energy costs and the fact that his home had been so hot in prior years. Because of the cost associated with running his HVAC system in his large home, he knew he needed to take action before the summer hit in Clovis. We came out and inspected his attic and found that it only had batting insulation, which is not effective for preventing hot attic air from traveling into the living spaces of the home. We determined that an insulation upgrade was needed to achieve his goals of a more energy and cost-efficient home.
We achieved the Energy Star-recommended R38 level by blowing in premium fiberglass insulation to a height of 14 inches. Because it was blown in, it fills all of the nooks and crannies which were present with the batting insulation that he had. We also air-sealed visible air leakage points to help prevent air from traveling between the attic and the living spaces of the home.
As a result of the insulation upgrade that we performed, the homeowner and his family will be able to enjoy a cooler, more comfortable home in the summer, a warmer home in the winter, and reduced heating and cooling costs for the life of their house.
The homeowner contacted us because her home was extremely hot and it was expensive to run her air conditioner in her 3300 square foot home. She was eager to find a way to reduce her cooling costs. When we inspected her attic, we found that she only had about 4-5 inches of old, dirty, cellulose insulation in her attic. Not only was this insufficient to keep her home insulated and cool during the summer months, but it was also creating a lot of dust in the home. We determined that a full attic restoration was the best option to address her needs.
We began by sucking out all of the old, cellulose insulation and disposing of it. We then cleaned and sanitized the attic using DSV sanitizer to eliminate contaminants and irritants. Next, we thoroughly sealed air leakage points such as top plates, registers, recessed lights, and plumbing and wiring penetrations. During this process, we also installed rodent-proof barriers at potential entry points to prevent rodents and other animals from entering the attic. Lastly, we blew in 14 inches of fiberglass insulation, bringing the attic up to the Energy Star-recommended R38 level of protection.
As a result of our attic restoration, Nora and her husband will enjoy a cooler home during summer, a warmer home during winter, much less dust in the home, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 50% for as long as they live in the house.
Stephanie contacted us to inspect her attic for insulation level and also to clean her HVAC duct because every time she ran her AC, she could see dust coming from the registers. She hadn’t had her HVAC ducts cleaned in years and she was concerned about losing efficiency because of it. She noted that her house also felt hot and stuffy during the summers, and she wanted to reduce her high energy bills. When we inspected her attic, we found that there was only about 4 inches of insulation present, and the attic was littered with debris. We determined that a comprehensive attic restoration and air duct cleaning was needed to help Stephanie.
We began by sucking out all of the old, contaminated insulation. Next, we used DSV sanitizer to clean and sanitize the attic to eliminate contaminants and irritants. We then thoroughly sealed the leakage points where air could travel between the attic and the living spaces of the house. We also installed rodent-proof barriers to prevent rodents and other pests from being able to access the attic space. Once fully sealed, we blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, bringing the attic up to Energy Star recommendations. Lastly, we cleaned Stephanie’s air ducts using RamAir Duct Cleaner, blasting the dust, dirt, and other contaminants out.
As a result of the attic restoration and air duct cleaning, Stephanie will enjoy better indoor air quality, reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 50%, and a more comfortable home year-round for as long as she lives there.
