Photo Album: Make room above garage in Squirrel Hill home warmer in the winter
Karen called Home Environment solutions saying that her room above her garage stays cold in the winter. We set her up with an appointment with Russ to evaluate her home and perform a free home energy audit. Russ found loose insulation. places with no insulation and unsealed scuttle cover, wire and pipe runs.
Our insulation team went out and disposed of any old , loose insulation and prepared attic for fresh clean insulation. They air sealed the area between two ceiling levels in the attic, installed Silverglo foamboard on vertical walls between levels and sealed all gaps with expanding air sealing foam. Air sealed and insulated scuttle cover. Installed super knee wall. Air sealed and insulated roof and super knee wall. Applied Trusoft cellulose to attic floor.
