Global Dwelling serving Poughkeepsie, NY

We sent our team of expert attic insulators to this home to help make the bedrooms below the attic more comfortable for this family! 

When our home comfort specialist, Dorrell Kitson, went out to this home in Poughkeepsie, NY, the homeowner told him that he was experiencing inconsistent temperatures throughout the home. Dorrell went up into the attic space and found that the attic had existing old fiberglass insulation that was no longer properly insulating the home. This resulted in the rooms below having inconsistent temperatures and causing discomfort to the family. When our team of insulation experts arrived at the home, they first started with removing all of the old nasty batt fiberglass insulation that was no longer providing proper R-value for the home. Once the attic was clear, our team was then ready to thoroughly air-seal the space using ZypFoam. Our team used ZypFoam because once it is applied, it will expand and enclose any air penetrations that were once allowing uncontrollable air into the attic. After the attic was thoroughly air-sealed, our team was ready to upgrade the attic insulation with our premier method; blown-in cellulose! Not only is our method known to be both energy efficient and cost-effective but will also insulate the home to an R-value of 60! The combination of properly air-sealing and insulating the attic will result in consistent temperatures throughout the home, restoring comfort for this family! 

Our experts completely transformed this attic space in Poughkeepsie, NY! Before our team of experts arrived at this home, this attic was poorly insulated with old batt fiberglass which was no longer properly insulating the home. Our specialist found that this attic needed to be upgraded with a new method that will help the overall performance of the home. Our experts insulated this home with a conditioned attic with SilverGlo rigid foam board. 

The first step our experts did for the upgrade was to install and secure the SilverGlo to the walls and slopes of the attic space. Once secured, our experts then air-sealed all of the boards with ZypFoam. Using ZypFoam ensures that all easily accessible air penetrations no longer allow any leaky or unwanted air. Lastly, our experts sealed the boards by using SilverGlo tape on top of the ZypFoam, to add another layer of air-sealing on the SilverGlo. 

When our highly experienced home comfort specialist arrived at this homeowners home, they noticed almost immediately that the home was experiencing some extreme energy inefficiencies by feeling the overall temperature of the home. When they evaluated the attic space it was confirmed that this space was becoming a direct link to why the home was underperforming. It was discovered that not only was the attic poorly insulated with fiberglass insulation but it was also not properly air-sealed. 

Our expert attic insulation contractors first started by removing all of the old nasty batt fiberglass that was installed in the attic space. After they properly disposed of all of the old insulation they then went into the area and properly air-sealed the space. They did this by thoroughly air-sealing all of the easily accessible air penetrations in the space with ZypFoam. These air penetrations would be easily accessed by leaky and unwanted air. After the attic air-sealing, our team of experts then upgraded the space by insulating the space with our premier method of insulation, blown-in cellulose! This was an excellent method for the attic because not only did we insulate the space up to an R-value of 60, but improved the overall performance by installing a method known to be both energy-efficient and cost-effective. 

Once the project was completed, both our experts and the homeowners felt an almost immediate difference in temperature. Mr. H couldn't wait to see the reflection of the upgrade in his energy bills in the months to follow! 

This home was very uncomfortable when our highly trained insulation contractors arrived. Prior to their arrival, the homeowners had no idea why their home seemed like it was underperforming. When we sent one of our experienced home comfort specialists to the home to perform a home energy audit, it was discovered that their home was poorly insulated with old fiberglass batt insulation and needed attic air-sealing. 

Our team of experienced insulation contractors was quick to fix this uncomfortable home in order to restore the homeowner's peace of mind. Our contractors first started by removing and disposing of all of the old insulation that was poorly installed in the area. After the removal, the space was then ready for our experts to properly air-seal, our team completed this step by using ZypFoam to thoroughly seal all of the easily accessible air penetrations in the space. Once the attic air-sealing was completed the space was ready to be upgraded with our energy-efficient premier method of insulation, blown-in cellulose! Our experts properly air-sealed this space up to an R-value of 60, and upgraded this home to be more cost-effective so that the energy bills the homeowners were receiving were no longer high-cost! 

When our experts in insulation arrived at Mr. C's home, they knew that they had to immediately fix his home. Mr. C was receiving high costing energy bills that would leave him feeling confused about what was happening in his own home. Mr. C requested that we send out one of our highly trained home comfort specialists so that they could find where his inefficiencies were. Our home comfort specialist provided a very thorough evaluation of his home and discovered that the main source of his high costing energy bills was happening because of his poorly insulated attic! 

First, our team of insulation experts went into his attic and disposed of any remaining insulation that was in the space. They then went into the space and completely air sealed the area with Zypfoam. Our team of experts did this because the Zypfoam creates an impenetrable space, no longer letting in or out the unwanted air. Our team then encapsulated the duct system that was in the attic, in order to ensure that no accessible air penetrations would occur around the area. Lastly, our team of insulation experts upgraded the attic with our energy-efficient, cost-effective method, "blown-in" cellulose! This upgraded method is great for any homeowner to choose, it is warming and fluffy and also provides up to an R-60 value! 

Mr. C was very pleased he chose to upgrade his attic with our insulation method, he noticed an immediate difference in the cost of his energy bills. Safe to say Mr. C now has more peace of mind.
