Francis contacted us because his two-story home felt extremely hot and uncomfortable upstairs. Because the bedrooms were all upstairs, Francis and his family had to run their air conditioner constantly just to be comfortable enough to sleep at night. In doing this, their cooling bills were astronomically high. When we came out and inspected the attic, we found that Francis only had about 1-2 inches of insulation present, with many spots being bare with no insulation at all. This meant that the hot attic air was able to heat up the living spaces of the home because there was nothing to resist the heat flow. We determined that an attic restoration was needed to best help Francis.
We began 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. We then carefully air-sealed all leakage points to help prevent air from traveling between the attic and the living spaces of the home. At this time, we also installed rodent-proof barriers to prevent rodents and other pests from entering the space. Lastly, we blew in fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, bringing the attic up to the Energy Star-recommended level.
As a result of the comprehensive attic restoration we performed, Francis and his family now experience a cooler, comfortable home during the summer months, a warmer home during winter, better indoor air quality, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 50% for as long as they remain in that home.
Sharon contacted us seeking a solution to the dual problem of high cooling costs and a hot, stuffy home during the summer months. When we inspected her attic, we discovered the root of her problems: her attic only had about two inches of insulation present, and was even completely bare in some places. We determined that upgrading her insulation to an R49 level, above the Energy Star standard, was necessary.
We began by air-sealing visible leakage points with closed-cell foam to help prevent air from traveling between the attic and the home's living spaces. We then blew in fiberglass insulation to an R49 level, or 16 inches.
because of the insulation upgrade we performed, Sharon and her family will enjoy a cooler, more comfortable home during summers, a warmer home during winters, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 30% for the life of their home.
The homeowner contacted us because his home was hot and stuffy and his cooling bills were extremely high. He was looking to reduce his cooling bills while also making his home feel cooler and more comfortable. When we inspected his attic, we found that there was only about 3-4 inches of insulation present. We determined that an insulation upgrade was necessary to help him lower his bills and keep his home feeling comfortable.
We began by air-sealing visible leakage points using closed-cell foam to help prevent air from traveling between the attic and the living spaces of the home. We then blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to a height of 14 inches, or R38.
As a result of the work we did, the homeowner and his family will enjoy a cool, comfortable home during summer, and warmer home in winter, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 30% for the life of their home.
David reached out to us on the recommendation of a friend who had recently had a whole house fan installed. He was looking to reduce his summer cooling costs while also making his home feel more cool and comfortable during the hot Central Valley summers. When we inspected his attic, we determined that he had plenty of room to install a whole house fan.
We began the project by identifying the ideal spot to place the fan and installing it. We ensured that there was proper ventilation for the fan to work effectively. We also showed David how to use to two-speed timer remote and explained the 15-year QuietCool warranty. Because the Trident 5.5 was installed by Tyson, David will be able to enjoy it worry-free for the next 15 years. He knows that if there is ever an issue and a warranty claim or repair needs to be made, we will take care of it, free-of-charge.
As a result of the whole house fan installation, David and his family will enjoy a cool, comfortable home during the summer months, better indoor air quality, and reduced cooling bills by up to 50%.
Hilary contacted us because she'd had an HVAC technician at her house, but he told her that her air conditioner wasn't faulty, she was just low on insulation. When we came out and inspected her attic, we found that she was indeed low; she had only 5 inches of insulation present in her attic. We determined that to help Hilary achieve her goals of a cool, more comfortable home and lower cooling bills, an insulation upgrade was the best option.
We began by air-sealing visible leakage points using closed-cell foam. This helps to prevent air from flowing between the home's living spaces and the attic. We also built a barrier around her attic access to ensure that insulation would not spill out of the attic access. We then blew in premium, fiberglass insulation to an R38 level, bringing her attic to the Energy Star-recommended level.
Because of the work that we completed for Hilary, she and her family will now enjoy a cool, comfortable home during the summers, a warmer home during winters, and reduced heating and cooling costs by up to 30% for the life of their house.
