Preventing Frozen Pipes in Lebanon, CT

These homeowners in Lebanon, CT were worried about their pipes freezing. If the basement and crawlspace are not sealed and insulated, heat coming off of the furnace or boiler is lost through leaks as well as by conduction through block walls.

To start, we sealed the rim joist with spray foam and addressed any air leaks. We then secured our SilverGlo foam to the walls to prevent any more loss of heat. SilverGlo is infused with graphite and has a reflective radiant barrier to keep in heat in the winter. For the portion of the home that was crawlspace, we made sure to address the dirt floor under that old tarp which we removed. We put down a dimpled matting to keep an air break, then TerraBlock floor insulation, and finally our vapor barrier to keep any moisture from getting up into the home.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, these homeowners can have peace of mind by not having to worry about losing heat or having their pipes freeze when winter rolls in.

Dense Packing Roof Ridge in Brimfield, MA

Cathedral ceiling was dramatically uninsulated. Fogarty's Home Services removed the ridge vent and inserted a long fill tube to reach the bottom of the ceiling plane, and "dense packed" into each rafter bay filling all air spaces. After Completion of insulation We installed hip and ridge cap shingles and a Tribuilt Omni Ridge pro - ridge vent to finish the job. 

Ice Damming in Mansfield Center, CT

This homeowner was experiencing severe ice damming.  Ice damming occurs when heat from inside your attic warms the underside of your roof. This causes the snow and ice on the roof to melt. When the water hits the cold gutter and overhang, it refreezes and forms an ice dam and icicles. Ice damming causes a lot of damage to homes.  Our team went to work on this homeowner's attic.  We air sealed all the penetrations and tops of the walls with our 1-Part Expandable Polyeuranem Foam.  We blew our TruSoft Cellulose insulation to a Department of Energy recommendation of R-60, which is about 18 to 20 inches.  This attic is now properly air sealed and insulated.  The homeowner is very happy to no longer have to worry about ice dams!

Preparing a Dormer for Winter in Ashford, CT

This homeowner in Ashford, CT was creating a studio above his garage that he could use all year round. 

We attached our Insulweb polypropylene netting to joists on the ceiling and walls, this creates a cavity for our TruSoft cellulose to be installed in. Once in place, we cut small slits in the Insulweb that we can then insert a hose into to densely pack in our Trusoft cellulose. For these dormers, we also installed our Foamax Polyiso board in the triangular wall space above the window and sealed around them to keep drafts out.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this studio can stay warm in the winter and cool in the summer and is ready to be finished off with drywall if the homeowner decides to later on.
