This Linden, VA homeowner had mold growing on the drywall in the garage ceiling that was causd by the HVAC duct work above the drywall sweating in the summer time. This duct sweating is caused by hot/humid air hitting the cold metal ducting. This makes the air hit dew point and sweat. Then, it dripped on their drywall and over time caused mold to grow.
Comfenergy removed and disposed of the dryall where the mold was growing. Then, we completely encased the metal ducting with closed cell spray foam to air seal it and protect it from the hot/humid air entering the cavity the duct runs through.
Can lights leak air from you home into the attic (which is outside your home). It's very similar to leaving the windows open 24/7/365 even when heating and cooling the house. You are paying for that heated and cooled air.
Rock wool can light covers not only seal this heated and cooled air in your home, and preventing it from leaving.
It keeps any flammable materials away from the can light which can reach temperatures allowing wood and certiain types of insulation to catch fire!!!
This home has a sun room/porch that is built on a deck. The floor of the deck had no insulation and as a result, the floor and room above it were uncomfortably humid in the summer and literally cold to the touch in the winter. We installed closed cell spray foam to the rafters under the deck to insulate and keep the floors above the deck comfortable!
This Amissville, VA homeowner was looking to lower their utility bills this coming winter. This before and after pic shows how we removed/disposed of the old fiberglass batt insulation. Then, newly blown TruSoft cellulose insulation was installed. This cellulose insulation is more densely packed and does a better job at insulating a home than fiberglass due to its quality and ability to reach a high R-value.
This Rixeyville, VA homeowner was complaining about a cold room on the upper level of their home. After a full comfort evaluation provided for FREE by Comfenergy we found an attic that was adjacent to this room. The wall adjacent to this attic was merely insulated with fiberglass batts. The problem with this is that fiberglass does NOT stop air from travelling around and through it. This is why your furnace filter is made of fiberglass. It allows the air through, but not the dust and dirt.
Comfenergy solved this issue by using 2" thick EPS SilverGlo foam boards to secure on this wall to provide a good air barrier and an additional R10 thermal insulation value.
Now this room is toasty warm and can be used in cold winter months!!!
