in Arnprior, Ontario with Poor attic insulation leading to heat loss and high energy bills.
A homeowner in Arnprior reached out to us due to concerns about high energy bills, uneven indoor temperatures, and drafts. their attic had old, insufficient insulation and several air leaks, causing heat to escape in the winter and hot air to enter in the summer. They needed an efficient and long term solution to improve their home's insulation and energy efficiency.
our goal was to properly air seal the attic and install high performance cellulose insulation to improve energy efficiency and indoor comfort.
Solution

Focused on gaps around wiring, light fixtures, attic access points.
ensured a tight air seal before adding new insulation for maximum effectiveness.
Step 2 Cellulose insulation upgrade
installed high performance cellulose insulation to the recommended r value, significantly increasing attic insulation
ensured even coverage for consistent thermal protection.
used blown in cellulose, whish is fire resistant, eco friendly, and highly effective at preventing heat transfer.
After the project was completed, the home owner immediately noticed a more comfortable home, fewer drafts, and lower energy costs. The new attic insulation helped regulate indoor temperatures. reducing strain their HVAC system.
