Reducing High Energy Bills in Mansfield, CT

This homeowner in Mansfield, CT called us out to their home for a Home Energy Evaluation, because their home was drafty, they had cold floors and high energy bills. We noticed there was old dirty, and inefficient fiberglass Insulation in the attic. We also noticed there was air leaks at the top of the home because the attic was poorly insulated. This homeowner had can lights where the lights are installed into the ceiling and air can leak out.

 We took, removed and disposed of the old ineffective insulation, we bagged it up and vacuumed the attic. Now that the attics clean, we properly air sealed it. We sealed around holes, gaps and joints between drywall and framing at the top of walls, around pipes, wires, and duct work. We installed can light covers, fitted around wires and fixture struts and air sealed tight with expanding foam. The covers protect the home from fire hazards from hot bulbs and fixtures. We then installed our blown- in Trusoft Cellulose insulation. This will fill in all odd-shaped gaps and voids in the attic!

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver this home is more comfortable and energy efficient!
