This homeowner recently had a Radiant Barrier installed by a radiant barrier company on the floor but noticed that over time the radiant barrier was becoming covered with dust and was less effective. Dr. Energy Saver Delaware was called out and helped the homeowner with the issue. The radiant barrier was moved to the correct location- under the rafters for the Delmarva Region. After the radiant barrier was moved the attic floor was air sealed and additional insulation was added to further help reduce the heat load from the hot attic.
This Split-Level New Castle County home was built half on a slab with the other floor above a crawlspace. The homeowner had issues with a musty smell and cold floors. Dr. Energy Saver used the CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System® to remove the old musty smells and the floors are comfortable year round.
This home in Wilmington, DE was suffering from the cold! Lawson Home Services removed the old insulation and replaced it with new, blown-in insulation to bring it up to industries standards so the homeowner could experience a warmer, healthier home!
When a stairwell has a sloped ceiling forming a big triangular space that is open to the attic, it creates a heat loss in the winter and a heat gain in the summer inside of your home.
Dr. Energy Saver went into this home located in Wilmington, Delaware where the customers had concerns about the amount of money spewing out into their fuel and electric bills. Also making the inside conditions of the home very uncomfortable. As our In Home Comfort Specialist inspect the attic, he found the open area sloped ceiling that was open to the attic. That area had the most impact on the cost home ownership.
Our production team goes in immediately attacks the issue at hand which is to install our Airtight Structural Cover over the open cavity inside of the attic. After this is installed, we can now blow over the structure and insulate the whole attic properly making this home more comfortable year around and also lowering their fuel and electric bills.
In Wilmington, Delaware, this homeowner suffered from the horrendous conditions in her attic. The conditions left her home uncomfortable, drafty, and insufficient enough to sustain the drastic temperature changes. Dr. Energy Saver came right out to improve her living conditions.
After inspecting the attic and informing the homeowner on the steps needed to take place to fix the issues that she was experiencing, our production team got right to work!
We first removed the dirty insulation from the attic and sealed up the air penetrations inside of the attic. Next we insulated her attic well over the expected R-Value(the capacity of an insulating material to resist heat flow. The higher the R-value, the greater the insulating power) to make sure her home stays comfortable year around.
This homeowner was ecstatic and couldn't thank the team here at Dr. Energy Saver enough for a job well done.
