Jerry’s home was not that comfortable. He had recently upgraded his HVAC equipment to help heat and cool the home and wanted to make sure he was reaping the most benefits possible. (Upgrading your equipment won’t necessarily solve your problem if you are losing conditioned air to the exterior of your home envelope.)
We noticed some accent features (what we label as adjacent attic walls) in his ceiling that had less insulation than other areas. On top of that his whole attic really needed more insulation and to be air sealed to decrease conditioned air (heated/cooled air you are paying for) escaping from the home. Jerry also had a significant amount of duct work in the attic, so on top of his other improvements, we increased the efficiency and effectiveness by covering them in closed cell spray foam.
Homeowner in Oxford, Maryland wanted to improve his crawlspace conditions. He noticed the abrupt climate change when he looked inside of his crawl space and knew it was time to do something about it. He called out Dr. Energy Saver who came out and inspected the crawlspace finding multiple reasons why the homeowner were not very satisfied with his current crawlspace conditions.
Dr. Energy Saver came out and encapsulated their crawlspace. By removing the previous damp insulation , spray foaming the rim joist which will reduce heat loss and infiltration of cold air, adding CleanSpace with SilverGlo on the walls which lowers the humidity levels, a Sedona dehumidifier, and finishing it up with our patent EverLast CrawlSpace Door.
Overall, this lowers the humidity inside of the crawlspace, much warmer floors in the winter, and lowers fuel and electric bills!
Homeowners in Chestertown, Maryland noticed the inefficiency of their HVAC unit inside of their attic not properly keeping the living space comfortable during the winter time. The attic temperature read at below 30 degrees.
Dr. Energy Saver came out and inspected the home and informed the homeowners of the issue that they were facing. With their HVAC unit being inside of the cold attic, heating those duct lines were taking longer than expected and not properly being heated to the temperature of the thermostat.
Our production team came right out and got to work. We installed our SunChuter Radiant Barrier which is installed right between the roof trusses. This will create an air space above it and reflect much of the roofs heat. We also air sealed the air penetrations and insulated the attic well above the required state amount. This will make the home a lot more comfortable, the HVAC unit will not run as much, and lowers the electric bills!
Check out the amazing improvement to this Chestertown, MD homeowner's crawl space! It went from moldy and damp to dry and clean thanks to the Lawson Home Services team!
After these homeowner's had an energy evaluation performed on their home they were shocked at the results. Their main problem was in the attic because it was under insulated and not properly sealed. Therefore, it was losing a lot of energy. They chose to have our SilverGlo rigid foam board insulation with radiant barrier installed. SilverGlo will not only insulate their Cambridge, MD home preventing unwanted air and temperatures in through the attic, it will also reflect indoor temperatures back into the home keeping them more comfortable while using less energy!
