Attic insulation upgrade for a new furnace in Bridgeville, PA 15017

Alan recently installed a new furnace in his older single-story home and wanted to make sure it was running as efficiently as possible. Despite the new equipment, he was still dealing with drafty rooms, temperature swings, and higher than expected energy bills.

In older homes, upgrading the furnace alone doesn’t always solve comfort issues. If air is escaping through the attic, even the best heating system has to work harder than it should.

Our team sealed attic air leaks, sealed top plates and soffit areas, insulated the attic access opening, and tightened the attic’s thermal boundary to reduce heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. By stopping uncontrolled air movement at the top of the home, we helped the new furnace operate more efficiently.

Now the home feels less drafty, temperatures are more consistent, and the heating system can run the way it was designed to -- without fighting major air leakage.
