Before & After Photos

This homeowner from Chicopee, MA called us to asses the energy efficiency in their home. They mentioned inconsistent temperatures throughout the year. During our evaluation and inspection, we found old fiberglass insulation, bare walls and drafts. After reviewing the areas of concern, the homeowners decided to focus on the attic. Typically, this is what we recommend to our homeowners - work your way from top to bottom; fix the attic then basement to create an envelope that fully seals the house.

First, we removed all of the old fiberglass insulation. We collected the material, vacuumed the small debris and properly disposed of the bags. Next, we air sealed all of the top plates with one-part fire retardant foam. Then, we added the TruSoft cellulose insulation making sure to cover all gaps and odd shaped spaces. This results were amazing! The homeowner saw a difference in their energy bills and they experienced a more comfortable home.

This homeowner in Chicopee, MA was having issues with drafts in their home that they were looking to fix. Old metal framed, single pane windows allow the heat from inside the home escape both through the glass and the thermally conductive metal. A lot of air is also able to leak into the home.

We removed the old windows and installed our Everlast high efficiency vinyl window inserts. The windows feature two panes of high efficiency glass that allows light in without letting heat to escape. The vinyl will not rust, rot or need paint, making it perfect for the damp environment outside of the window.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this house will no longer have drafts coming up into the home!

This homeowner wanted to reduce heat loss in his basement.  Single pane glass windows with metal frames let lots of cold air leak into the basement.  They also allow heat to escape by conduction through the cold glass.  Our Team installed our Everlast sliding basement windows with double pane glass.  These windows have a special metallic "Low E" coating on the inside to reduce heat flow through the glass.  The new windows look great and will reduce overall air leakage in the home.

This homeowner in Chicopee, MA called us hoping to get more insulation due to his high energy costs. He also had family members living in the basement that he suspected was poorly insulated. When our Home Comfort Specialist arrived at the home, she noticed that the basement had no insulation in it. This explains the fact that the floors upstairs would be very warm or very cold, depending on the season. 

We were able to help this customer out by insulating his basement. We specifically insulated the rim joist. That is the perimeter of the floor framing system along the exterior of the house. We sprayed this rim joist with two-part expanding spray foam. This seals all air leaks in the rim joist from the outside and insulates this area of the home. It seals all of the cracks, gaps, and joints where air from the outside was entering the home. 

Now, this home will be temperature controlled and safe for years to come! 

This homeowner in Chicopee, MA called us when he realized that he needed better basement windows. Unfortunately, some of the windows in his home were missing or inefficient, meaning there was a lot of conditioned air being loss and even more outside air getting in.

Luckily for this homeowner, we were able to remedy this problem. We replaced his old and inefficient windows with our Everlast™ basement windows. These windows feature double pane glass that is treated to reduce heat flow in or out of the glass. They also have vinyl frames and sashes -- meaning they will not rust, rot, or need paint. They are aesthetically pleasing as well! This homeowner now will have less air leakage and a more temperature controlled basement.
