    After

    Roger from Allison Park Pa called Home Environment Solutions saying that he thinks he has mold in his attic. he also said he feels the upstairs of his home is never comfortable. It is always warm in the summer and cold in the winter.  We sent one of our experts out to take a look at the growth and to perform a free home energy audit.  Russ found microbial growth in the insulation. While performing the energy audit he found old batt insulation and numerous unsealed pipe runs and wire runs that allow air to escape.

     

    Our mold team arrived, built a containment barrier to prevent contaminating the rest of the home . They removed all old insulation batts and discarded. Air Scubber in attic and used surface and substrate cleaner for removal of organic contamination where needed.

Seal air leaks & add insulation for an energy upgrade that pays for itself 

Don't forget to seal leaks!

Sealing air leaks and adding insulation can help:

  • Increase overall comfort
  • Reduce outside noise
  • Improve humidity control
  • Lessen the demand on your HVAC system
  • Improve indoor air quality

The attic is typically the biggest source of energy loss in a home. Installing the right amount of insulation and sealing air leaks can make a big difference in your energy bills and comfort.

Insulation levels and thermal performance are measured by R-Value. The higher the R-value, the better the insulation's ability to resist heat flow.

Many homes have as little as 9 in. of attic insulation in regions where the U.S. Department of Energy recommends 16 in. It is recommended that most homes in West Virginia & Pennsylvania have between R-49 and R-60 of attic insulation, depending on the insulation material.  

Air sealing is a critical step when insulating an attic because sealing air leaks stops conditioned interior air from leaking into the attic. Air sealing can prevent attic mold and significantly reduce heating and cooling bills. Home Environment Solutions uses a variety of materials and techniques to stop this energy-wasting air leakage.

Be sure to check out our specialized SuperAttic™ System for continuous & airtight coverage.

Contact us today to schedule your home energy audit to identify where your home is in need of insulation and air sealing. Our audit also diagnoses the other energy issues in your home-- which may be the larger factors in your home's high utility bills and discomfort.
