Making a Room More Comfortable in Blandford, MA

This home owner in Blandford, MA called to see if we could help make a room more comfortable throughout the year. He wanted to focus on an old dirt crawlspace. The room above this crawlspace was notoriously really cold in the winter and super hot and humid in the summer.

To fix the problem, we had to encapsulate the crawl space. We removed all the old fiberglass insulation and added our 2" Silverglow foam board to the side walls. We laid down our dimple drainage mat and over-laid the Terr-block insulation foam board for additional support. We installed our Cleanspace 20 mil thick vapor barrier on the floors and walls. Our last step was to spray foam the rim joist so that the entire area is secured from the outside elements. 

Now that Dr Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions completed this project, this homeowner's room will stay more comfortable year round!

Reducing Humidity in a Basement in Blandford, MA

This home owner in Blandford, MA called us to his home to see if we could help reduce the amount of humidity that was in his basement. When our building science specialist got to the home he knew exactly what to do.

To fix the problem that was occurring we had to insulate the basement walls. A lot of cold from the outside was conducting into the basement through the walls. When this cold air hit the warm air in the house it created humidity. So, we use our Foamax Insulation panels on the walls. This treatment will help stop any outside elements from coming into the basement and affecting this space.

Now that Dr Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions came to this home and did this treatment, this home owner will not have to worry about humidity in his basement ever again!

Reducing Drafts in a Home in Blandford, MA

This homeowner called us out to their home in Blandford, MA to update their insulation in the attic because they were having issues with drafts in their home. We knew it was time to remove and update their attic insulation. In their attic knee wall space, there was old, inefficient fiberglass insulation. 

We removed the old fiberglass insulation, properly bag and dispose of the materials and are ready for the next step. We install our SilverGlo foam board insulation between the ceiling joist bays. The blocks are sealed with foam and fastened with long screws. The SilverGlo helps so that when the insulation is installed next, it is not left to do the work on its own. This significantly warms the upstairs and downstairs, as well as reducing the drafts able to enter the home, thanks to Dr. Energy Saver!
