Before & After Photos

Sam called Home Environment Solutions for help dealing with some moldy insulation in his attic.  When Russ arrived he learned that Sam had his roof replaced last year and has been having problems with mold in the attic.    Russ provided Sam with a free evaluation and discovered the problem was caused by bad circulation in the attic.   

The HES team arrived and got to work removing the old moldy insulation so that the attic mold could be remediated.   The Team used a strong chemical to remove all organic contamination form the attic.   Since the attic was now remediated the attic could be insulated to make the home comfortable year round.  The attic was air sealed and the duct work was encapsulated with foam.  The HES team then installed a  David Lewis Hatch Cover and a thick layer of cellulose insulation.   

Sam's home is now free from mold and more energy efficient. 

Jessica reached out because the rooms above the garage were much colder in the winter than the rest of the home. This is one of the most common comfort issues we see in two-story homes.

Garages are typically unconditioned spaces, which means the rooms above them are constantly exposed to colder temperatures below. If the garage ceiling isn’t properly sealed and insulated, those floors can become cold and uncomfortable very quickly.

Our team air sealed the garage ceiling and installed dense-pack TruSoft cellulose insulation throughout the cavity system.

Dense-pack insulation is especially effective in garage ceiling applications because it completely fills the cavities and restricts airflow inside the floor system itself. Instead of leaving gaps or loose areas, the insulation is packed to the proper density to create a stronger thermal barrier.

Now the rooms over the garage stay noticeably warmer in the winter and feel much more consistent with the rest of the home.

You can see the bat insulation and how it barely covers anything, and then you can see how we blew in TruSoft cellulose and covers a lot more. 

Christine called Home Environment Solutions to have an energy audit done on her McKees Rock home.  Russ took a look in her attic to find areas of heat loss.    He found old insulation that was inadequate to stop the heat loss.  

The HES team arrived and removed the old Insulation.  They then air sealed the attic paying special attention to the canister lights.  After the attic was air sealed the team blew in Cellulous and Silverglo foam insulation.   

Not only will Christine's home be more energy efficient, it will be more comfortable for her and her family.
