Installing a SunHouse™ Window Enclosure in West Springfield, MA

This homeowner in West Springfield, MA called us hoping that we would be able to help him. He had rain coming into his basement through his window wells. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home, he noted that the window wells had ill-fitting covers and, additionally, did not let light into the basement. 

 

We had the perfect solution for this customer. We were able to help him by installing a SunHouse™ basement window enclosure with a drainage system (not pictured) to prevent flooding. SunHouses™ are sturdy and keep rain and leaves out due to their clear cover, and the bottom reflects natural light into the basement due to its light color. 

 

Now, this homeowner is much happier with their window wells! 

Installing a Basement Window in Greenfield, MA

This homeowner called us out to their home to take a look at a serious problem they were experiencing. The original problem was that these homeowners had a large mold problem in their attic. While conducting our Full Home Energy Evaluation we noticed that they had a very old, corroded wooden basement window.We asked the homeowner if they were paying a high heating bill, and they agreed that they were. We assessed the mold problem, and used our Dr. Energy Saver treatments to resolve this. Next we had to explain to this customer that an old wood basement window in a stone foundation are very inefficient. When this type of window is in a stone foundation it allows a lot of heat to escape buy conduction through the cold glass. This is because a home has lower air pressure at the bottom, the basement, and sucks a great deal of cold air in from the exterior of the home. Another issue that was occurring was because of the damn environment near the ground, causing rot on the existing window. Now we know what we need to do.

To fix this basement window, we know that we need to fully replace the entire window with our Dr. Energy Saver High Efficiency Window. We must first remove the old window, and frame completely. We make sure to clean and properly prep the window area for a new window to be put in. The next thing we do is install our new High Efficiency Windows. These windows are double pained, with a special metallic coating on top to reduce heat flow in or out through the glass. The last step is to seal the window with our window and door foam! These windows will never rot, rust, or need to be repainted. Now that this new window is set and put in these customers can live more healthy, happy, and energy efficient in their home!

Installing a Door in Greenfield, MA

This homeowner in Greenfield, MA called us wanting to know more about getting basement insulation. When our Home Comfort Specialist came out to the home, we noted that her basement did not have a door. Cold winter air gets sucked into the home continually in winter. In summer, warm humid air enters the basement and causes condensation on cool floor, wall and duct surfaces. Results - Cold basement, cold floors on first floor, drafts, higher heating fuel costs, condensation in summer, higher electric costs for A/C.

 

We had the perfect solution for this customer. In this solution, proper framing is installed and a new door with a locking knob is installed. Result - warmer basement and floors over the basement, drier basement in summer, lower fuel and electric costs, less drafts, house easier to heat, more security.

Upgrading Basement Windows in Chicopee, MA

This homeowner in Chicopee, MA was having issues with drafts in their home that they were looking to fix. Old metal framed, single pane windows allow the heat from inside the home escape both through the glass and the thermally conductive metal. A lot of air is also able to leak into the home.

We removed the old windows and installed our Everlast high efficiency vinyl window inserts. The windows feature two panes of high efficiency glass that allows light in without letting heat to escape. The vinyl will not rust, rot or need paint, making it perfect for the damp environment outside of the window.

Thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by Eco Energy Solutions, this house will no longer have drafts coming up into the home!
