Mark was struggling with high energy bills in his Follansbee, WV home. He called Home Environment Solutions to schedule a free in-home energy audit to try to get the bills under control. When Russ arrived to perform the inspection he found the attic poorly insulated and explained to Mark how the stack effect was letting all of his money escape.
The HES team arrived and got to work fixing the problem. The removed the old insulation and began air sealing the attic and rim joist to stop the warm air inside the home from escaping. They then added blown in cellulose to stop the heat loss. Marks home is now more energy efficient and more cost efficient.
