When we arrived in this Glastonbury attic, we found that the existing fiberglass insulation wasn’t keeping warm air from escaping the house in the winter. This unnecessarily drove up heating costs for the homeowners. We removed the ineffective blown fiberglass and fiberglass batts so that we could air seal all of the gaps, seams and holes with expanding polyurethane foam. This sealed off the air flow between the attic and the rest of the house in order to keep the heated air where it belongs. Next we built dams and blew in our TruSoft cellulose insulation. Treated with natural borate compounds, blown cellulose insulation won't catch fire and it discourages the presence of insects, rodents and mold. We insulated the walkway with a layer of 4” SilverGlo, topped with flakeboard. After their attic insulation upgrade, these owners were able to stay more comfortable in the cold weather while seeing a decrease in their energy bills!
