Our client in Saint-Hyacinthe had concerns about their attic. They entered their attic and felt an uncomfortable heat. Additionally, they noticed a damaged section of their existing insulation. Our specialist explained to the client that this heat is one of the consequences of air leaks from multiple sources, such as recessed lighting and holes for wires and pipes. Similarly, these air leaks will cause uncomfortable cold during the winter months. Moreover, the amount of existing insulation was inadequate. The result is an increase in Hydro bills due to the overuse of heating and cooling systems.
Our solution included the removal of the old insulation, sealing all sources of air leaks, and installing new insulation.
Our client was very satisfied with the results, as well as the entire process followed by our team.
In Dunham, our Systèmes Éconergie team completely transformed a poorly insulated attic that was causing significant heat loss, high energy bills, and ice dams on the roof. Before our intervention, the insulation was inadequate and warm air was escaping through cracks and unsealed ducts, significantly reducing the home's energy efficiency. After a thorough inspection of the attic, we caulked air leaks, sealed ducts, and then installed our TruSoft blown cellulose insulation, an energy-efficient insulation recognized for its performance and durability. This method ensures consistent insulation, prevents ice dams from forming, protects the roof from moisture, and improves the home's thermal comfort year-round. Thanks to this work, the attic now complies with Quebec's energy efficiency standards, allowing the owners to enjoy a better-insulated space, lower heating bills, and lasting comfort.
A client contacted us after he removed the old existing insulation himself. He was asking us only to put fresh new insulation. As the attic was empty, we noticed the existence of mold spores, as well as some sources of air leaks. Thus, prior to blowing in our cellulose insulation, we managed to seal all the air leaks and remove all the mold spores before putting around 17 inches of our TruSoft cellulose insulation to reach the thermal value of R60. As a result, the attic was now very well insulated, which will increase the energy efficiency and the residential confort of the house.
In Bromont, Quebec, our Systèmes Éconergie team completed a comprehensive attic insulation project to improve the thermal comfort and energy efficiency of a home. After detecting air leaks and poor heat retention, we carefully caulked the attic and applied our high-performance blown cellulose TruSoft insulation. Thanks to this work, the homeowner now enjoys a well-insulated attic, a more comfortable home in all seasons, and significant energy savings.
During a recent attic insulation project in Saint-Nazaire-D'acton, Québec, the homeowner who was still experiencing discomfort in his home despite having both fiberglass and cellulose insulation in the attic. Upon inspection, we explained that the amount of insulation present was still not sufficient to achieve the recommended thermal resistance of R60. Additionally, air leaks were still present beneath the existing layers, compromising the insulation’s effectiveness. To provide a permanent solution to this issue, we removed all existing insulation, thoroughly sealed every air leak, and then installed our high-performance TruSoft cellulose insulation in the adequate quantity to reach an R60 value, ensuring optimal comfort and energy efficiency.
