Before & After Photos

This customer contacted Carolina Energy Conservation after noticing that the insulation in their attic wasn't keeping their home as warm as it should. Our company was happy to help. We scheduled an appointment with the home owner, took out all their old insulation, and then installed blown-in insulation for them!

Looking into his attic, this Myrtle Beach resident noticed he could see the lower joist and knew his insulation was not sufficient. He called Carolina Energy Conservation for a free home energy evaluation. Choosing the attic sealing, fresh cellulose insulation to Department of Energy code and batting, this home is prepared for hot South Carolina summers. He can also rest assured that the air-conditioned air is not leaking through into the attic. We also installed insulation baffles to provide a channel for air to flow from the soffit vents in the eves of the roof along the slope, between the rafters, up to the ridge vent. This Myrtle Beach Homeowner now has the attic system to keep his home comfortable and more efficient all year long. 

Our team completed a job in Tabor City where a customer wanted us to airseal their attic and we did just that!

Moisture can seap into a crawl space through the ground and infrastructure causing mold growth and musty air. This can tend to get into the breathable air inside the home as well causing discomfort and potentially some heatlh hazards. This customer was noticing uncomfortable floors in their home and after a Carolina Energy Conservation Comfort Specialist visited the home, they saw where moisture was making its way into the crawl space. The CEC crew placed a vapor barrier around the entire crawl space to make for a dry environment below the home. 

In the South it is very common for attics and roofs to hold an excessive amount heat radiated from the Sun. This can cause attics to reach temperatures much higher than those outside. This heat then moves into the home making the home's air conditioning unit work even harder to keep the space cool in the Summer months. This homeowner was noticing very high temperatures in their attic and, subsequently, inside their home. After calling Carolina Energy Conservation, our Comfort Specialists decided to install a solar attic fan on top of their roof to help keep the attic the same temperature as outside. This takes a lot of the pressure off of the air conditioning units so that the cool air is cooling the home rather than the attic. 

This whisper quiet, low-profile, solar powered attic fan qualifies for 55% State and Federal tax credits.
