Dr. Energy Saver Of Connecticut Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Stamford, CT had old fiberglass insulation in their attic that they wanted replaced to ensure their home is energy efficient. We sent out one of our Salesmen, Steve Machnicz, to the home to assess the attic and propose our blown-in cellulose as the new, permanent solution.

Soon after it would be time for one of our Foremen, Rudy, and his crew to install this job. They removed the old insulation and then they installed an insulated storage deck to allow easy access in the attic. Then they did some air sealing in necessary areas, and finally blew in our TruSoft cellulose insulation. It is superior to fiberglass and instantly will make the home more energy efficient. 

Now the homeowner is happy knowing they are not losing any air through the attic and the temperatures in their home are regulated! 

A homeowner located in Stamford, CT expressed interest in improving his crawlspace's insulation. With old fiberglass insulation hanging from the subfloor and floor joists, the homeowner expressed issues with cold floors during winter months. To remedy his concerns, he reached out to the experts at Dr. Energy Saver for assistance.

Upon calling, the homeowner made contact with Jimmy Stablein, scheduling a free in-home consultation. Shortly after, Stablein arrived at the home, mapping out the crawlspace and offering potential solutions. Following his visit, Stablein assembled a proposal documenting his suggestions for how to improve the crawlspace's insulation situation.

Ultimately, the homeowner landed on spray foam insulation. Offering better insulation properties, spray foam insulation features a better R-value (measure of the effectiveness of insulation) than traditional fiberglass insulation and fills gaps and cracks by expanding into areas it's sprayed.

Shortly after, Foreman Jony Fernandez and his team arrived on-site to begin the installation process. After a quick install, the crawl space was returned to the homeowner with better insulation properties! The homeowner no longer has to worry about chilly floors in the winter.

A homeowner in Stamford, CT had existing insulation in their attic, causing the home to be energy inefficient. They made the right decision when they called us at Dr. Energy Saver of CT. After scheduling an appointment with us, it would be time for one of our Sales Consultants, Keith Saunders, to go to the home to assess the issues and propose a solution. 

Then the next step would be for one of our Foremen, Rudy Abel, and his crew to get to work on this attic project. They installed a storage deck with dams for this space to be used for storage and easily accessible. Then the crew blew in TruSoft Cellulose insulation throughout the attic. This will act as a thermal barrier to the home, regulating the home's temperature. Now this home will be comfortable all year round and become energy efficient. 

A homeowner in Stamford, CT had a crawlspace that was poorly insulated and was very musty. They made the right decision when they decided to call us at Dr. Energy Saver of CT. After scheduling an appointment with us, one of our Sales Consultants, Keith Saunders, went out to the home to estimate the issues and propose a solution. 

Then it would soon be time for one of our Foremen, Rudy Abel, and his team to get working on this project. To insulate the crawlspace, they installed SilverGlo along the walls. This reflects heat into the crawlspace to ensure energy efficiency. TerraBlock insulation was also installed on the floors of the crawlspace to protect it from moisture but also keep it properly insulated. For extra moisture/vapor protection, the crew installed CleanSpace. A SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was put in to prevent moisture and dampness, but also from any potential mold growth. 

The old-fashioned way to insulate a crawl space was to install fiberglass batts between the overhead joists. This is no longer recommended for several reasons. In a crawl space, fiberglass insulation tends to absorb moisture, which causes it to lose R-value and fall out of place, rendering it ineffective while also creating a mess. It is also an invitation to mice and other pests. To repair and insulate this crawlspace, we first removed the old insulation. To keep moisture from entering the space, we installed drainage matting beneath TerraBlock foam insulation on the floors, and the CleanSpace vapor barrier above it. On the walls, we used closed cell spray foam. It's perfect for a crawlspace environment! Closed cell foam cures dense and hard, and it forms an effective barrier against both moisture and air. When the crawl space was finished, the owners were able to enjoy a less humid and more energy efficient home!
