Ashburn VA Attic Wall Spray Foam

This Ashburn VA home had a room over its garage that shared walls with a partial section of the attic.  The homeowners called us to try and help make that room and other areas of the home more comfortable.  Our team air sealed the space with Zyp Foam before blowing in more Tru Soft cellulose insulation.  There was a small wall section of the attic with framing that created blocks of open space.  Our team used Spray Foam to insulate those blocks and finish the project.  

Ashburn VA Attic Wall Panel Insulation

This home in Ashburn VA had several issues that the homeowner wanted to address, one of which was to make the upper level loft of the home more comfortable year round.  Our Home Performance Sales Pro Eric determined that this could be done by improving the insulation in the attic.  While the attic already had some blown in cellulose insulation covering the attic floor, the walls of the attic were poorly treated and were allowing cold temperatures and air to move into the space.  Eric suggested adding another 6 inches of insulation and to have Silver Glo panels installed on the walls of the attic.  The panels were then air sealed with Zyp Foam to properly protect the space from unwanted air flow.  

Sterling VA Attic Air Sealing and Insulation

Insulation alone will not solve most attic performance problems.  This Sterling VA attic was allowing conditioned air from the rooms below to escape and make the home uncomfortable.  As a result the HVAC system had to run more often than it should which lead to high energy bills.  After removing the old insulation, the small cracks, gaps and seams in the ceiling floor were exposed and able to be sealed with Zyp Foam.  Once air sealed, the rest of the attic was filled with blown in Tru Soft cellulose insulation. 

Home efficiency improvement in Leesburg

These clients were interested in improving the overall efficiency of their home. They had uneven temperatures from room to room and poor airflow through the house. Don Calnen performed a home inspection and identified the need for improved insulation and air sealing in the attic. We removed the old insulation, installed several can light covers and then air sealed with ZypFoam. The knee walls in the attic were fitted with foam boards to seal and insulate before the rest of the attic was filled with TruSoft blown cellulose insulation.

Leesburg VA Attic Insulation and Air Seal

This Leesburg VA home was uncomfortable to the homeowners.  They called us to get help and our Home Performance Sale Pro Eric went out to perform a no cost whole home inspection to try and find a solution to their problems.   The attic had insulation that was not getting the job done.  The performance level of the existing insulation (otherwise known as R Value)  was less than what would be needed for the type of home and space in the attic along with the fact that the attic was not air sealed.  This meant that conditioned air made by the HVAC system was being allowed to escape from the rooms it was made to cool down or heat up, causing the HVAC system to run more and use up more energy.  Our production crew came and removed the existing insulation, then used Zyp Foam to create an air seal around the cracks and can light fixtures that accessed the rooms below.  They would then install Rock Wool insulation to cover the base of the attic and then blow in Tru Soft Cellulose insulation to fill the space to its needed R Value.  Shown here is the attic at the mid way point in the project when the existing insulation was removed and the air seal had been completed.  Then shown as after is the finished project with Tru Soft insulation covering everything.
