This homeowner in Shelburne Falls, MA called us when she realized that half of her home was uninsulated. She was hoping to get a whole-home energy evaluation as well as get the home insulated. When our Home Comfort Specialist arrived, we noted that there were several issues with the home - including the fact that her crawlspace was not encapsulated.
We began with insulating the crawl space's walls using SilverGlo™ foam insulation board. SilverGlo™ foam has graphite infused into the foam to increase the R-value by 24% over standard foam. We then laid out a dimpled plastic drainage mat across the floor, and installed TerraBlock™ floor insulation over it. On top of all of that, the CleanSpace™ crawl space encapsulation liner was installed permanently across it. The crawlspace is now clean and insulated -- protecting this customer's home from the temperature fluctuations, humidity, and pests outside!
Homeowner was referred to us by a prior client! He was experiencing issues with allergens in the basement including mold, dampness, and dust. This was a 1900's foundation wicking moisture into the home. Our Dr Energy Saver solution included the implementation of a Clean Space Encapsulation.
This homeowner in Northampton, MA needed his insulation removed and mold remediated.
We were able to help this customer. In order to remove the insulation, we had to first bag all large pieces of fiberglass batt insulation. Then, we had to use a vacuum in order to remove the loose fill insulation.
Now, this home is ready for the next steps -- air sealing and installing new insulation!
These homeowners in Northampton, MA wanted to make their home more energy efficient as well as eliminate moisture coming up from their dirt crawlspace.
Our first step with crawlspaces is to make sure that outside air and temperatures can't get in. We sealed the rim joist and any vents letting in drafts as well as installing our SilverGlo graphite infused EPS foam board with a radiant barrier facing to make sure the cold cannot get in through the walls. We then seal off the floor, starting with a dimpled matting to create air space and a thermal break. Then we put down our TerraBlock floor insulation, and seal the floor off with a vapor barrier liner.
Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, these homeowners will be paying less to keep their home comfortable and will not have to worry about moisture getting in!
Homeowners in Chicopee, MA contacted Dr Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions because they wanted to make their upstairs rooms more comfortable. Vented attics are very cold in the winter and very hot in the summer. Our team installed our Super Attic Conversion System which makes the attic part of the conditioned space in the home. Our SilverGlo EPS foam insulation board is infused with graphite which gives it a superior R-value. Heat is reflected out in the summer and in during the winter. The upstairs rooms will be more comfortable and the homeowners will save on their heating and cooling costs!
