Lucinda called Home Environment Solutions to find out about upgrading the insulation in her Allison Park home. Lucinda was set up with an appointment with the HES insulation expert Russell. He came to her home to do a free in home energy audit. In Lucinda's attic he found old compressed insulation with a low R value.
The HES team arrived and removed the old insulation. The next step was to air seal the whole attic to prevent loss of heat form the stack effect. Finally they blew in a deep layer of cellulose insulation to help keep the home comfortable all year long.
