Homeowner was referred to us by a prior client! He was experiencing issues with allergens in the basement including mold, dampness, and dust. This was a 1900's foundation wicking moisture into the home. Our Dr Energy Saver solution included the implementation of a Clean Space Encapsulation.
This homeowner in Northampton, MA needed his insulation removed and mold remediated.
We were able to help this customer. In order to remove the insulation, we had to first bag all large pieces of fiberglass batt insulation. Then, we had to use a vacuum in order to remove the loose fill insulation.
Now, this home is ready for the next steps -- air sealing and installing new insulation!
These homeowners in Northampton, MA wanted to make their home more energy efficient as well as eliminate moisture coming up from their dirt crawlspace.
Our first step with crawlspaces is to make sure that outside air and temperatures can't get in. We sealed the rim joist and any vents letting in drafts as well as installing our SilverGlo graphite infused EPS foam board with a radiant barrier facing to make sure the cold cannot get in through the walls. We then seal off the floor, starting with a dimpled matting to create air space and a thermal break. Then we put down our TerraBlock floor insulation, and seal the floor off with a vapor barrier liner.
Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, these homeowners will be paying less to keep their home comfortable and will not have to worry about moisture getting in!
This homeowner in Northampton, MA reached out to us because she was interested in crawl space insulation. She had a crawl space that she wanted reinsulated due to cold floors and musty odors coming from the crawl space.
We had the perfect solution for this customer. In this solution, SilverGlo™ foam insulation board is installed across the bottom of the floor joists with special long screws and 3” washers, SilverGlo™ is expanded polystyrene foam with graphite infused into the foam, which bumps up the insulation (“R”) value by 24% over standard EPS foam. Further, SilverGlo™ has a radiant barrier to reflect heat, so the insulation isn’t doing all the work by itself. All seams are sealed. Result - Much warmer floors, less drafts and more comfortable rooms, quieter home, lower fuel and electric bills.
Basement windows inserts were installed and sealed air tight.
