Photo Album: Oakdale Pa home uncomfortable in the summer and winter
Arthur from Oakdale Pa called Home Environment Solutions stating that he is never comfortable in his home. He says it stays colder in the winter and warmer in the summer. We sent Russ out to perform a free home energy audit to determine what is needed to make his home more comfortable. Russ found old fiberglass batt insulation, uninsulated and sealed scuttle cover and many other penetrations that let air escape.
Remove And Dispose Of Existing Insulation. Attic is prepared for installation of fresh, clean insulation. Our team air sealed and insulated Scuttle Cover, sealed chimney chase with metal flashing, fire caulk and wrapped with rock wool sleeve. Air sealed with Zypfoam all penetrations. Installed SilverGlo™ on wall and between floor joists as needed and they wrapped skylights in 2" SilverGlo to air seal and insulate. They also applied Trusoft cellulose to the attic floor.
