Our client's attic in Rougemont had insufficient insulation, with air leaks at the joints between the boards and around the chimney. This situation resulted in high heating and cooling costs, as well as reduced thermal comfort.
Our team removed the old fiberglass insulation, sealed all air leaks with polyurethane foam, and blew in TruSoft cellulose insulation, achieving an R-value of 60. This material, made from recycled newspaper, is treated with a borate solution, giving it fire resistance and protection against pests. The installation was completed quickly, without requiring the removal of the existing insulation, and has significantly improved the energy efficiency and comfort of the home.
A homeowner from Saint-Joseph-de-Sorel, Quebec, contacted us after the failure of his attic insulation attempt, despite a recent investment with another contractor. Our specialist explained that simply adding insulation without sealing air leaks does not solve issues related to heat loss and humidity. We therefore removed the old insulation, sealed meticulously all air leaks, and then installed TruSoft cellulose insulation up to an R60 thermal value. This solution reduces the risk of mold, improves residential comfort, and lowers energy costs.
Our client in Sorel-Tracy reached out since mold was starting to form in their attic. Mold formation in the attic can result in various problems, from health risks to structural damage. We removed the old insulation, air Sealed all sources of air leaks using our high-quality ZypFoam sealant, and installed the new cellulose insulation to reach R60The results were remarkable. The attic is now mold-free, energy-efficient, and comfortable.
The occupants of a house in Notre-Dame-de-Stanbridge were experiencing uncomfortable temperatures in winter and a heating system that ran constantly due to defective insulation and insufficient sealing. Our experts conducted a comprehensive assessment and then carefully caulked air leaks, duct penetrations, and light -holes.
We then applied our eco-friendly blown cellulose insulation, a solution recognized for its thermal performance (high R-value) and reduced environmental footprint. The results: a continuous thermal barrier, a more comfortable home year-round, and significantly lower energy bills.
A homeowner in Farnham called on Systèmes Éconergie to solve several problems related to a poorly insulated attic, including heat loss, high heating bills, and mold condensation. Our team completely removed the old insulation, professionally caulked all air leaks, and then installed our high-performance TruSoft cellulose insulation, an energy-efficient insulation with high R-value, uniform coverage, and excellent moisture resistance. This work resulted in an energy-optimized, airtight, well-ventilated attic, offering significant energy cost savings, improved thermal comfort, ice dam prevention, and a lasting improvement in the overall energy efficiency of the home.
