Insulation Services Before & After Photos

Joanie from Mars Pa called Home environment solutions saying she saw rodent droppings in her attic and she would also like to know how to make her home more energy efficient.  We sent Russ to her home to perform a free home energy audit. Russ found loose insulation covered with rodent droppings, unsealed scuttle and multiple unsealed electrical and pipe runs.

When our insulation team arrived first they removed all the old batt insulation and disposed of it. Cleaned and sanitized from the rodent droppings.

Air sealed and insulated the Scuttle cover, sealed the chimney chase with metal flashing, fire caulk and wrapped with rock wool sleeve .Installed Titeshell over top of can lights and sealed with Zypfoam. Air sealed all accessible penetrations interior and exterior. Installed Trusoft cellulose on attic floor.

High energy bills and a need for clean storage lead this Bethel Park, PA customer to Home Environment Solutions.  After doing a free full home energy audit, HES discovered insufficient and deteriorating fiberglass insulation in the attic.  This is no surprise,  the North American Insulation Manufacturer Association (NAIMA) says that 90% of all single family homes are under insulated.  

HES cleaned out the old deteriorating insulation, air sealed, and insulated using Tru-Soft Cellulose Insulation. Particle board was used to dam the insulation and create clean storage for this customer.  

Not only can the customer store all of their belongings safely, but they will be saving on their energy bills, too!

Betty contacted Home Environment Solutions to find out about getting insulation for her home in Pittsburgh, PA.  Russ came out and provided her with a free in home energy audit.  During the visit Betty pointed out some mold that she had noticed.  Russ told her that Home Environment Solutions was an expert in mold remediation as well as home comfort.  

The HES team arrived and got to work tearing out the old inefficient insulation and treating the mold.   Once the Insulation and mold were gone the team air sealed Betty's attic and installed TiteShell light covers.   The Chimney was then wrapped with rock wool and then the whole attic was given a thick lay of cellulous insulation.   

Francis called Home Environment Solutions saying he would like us to make his home more comfortable year round. Russell our expert went to his home and preformed a free home energy audit. Russ found old, loose batt insulation, unsealed pipe and wire runs and an uninsulated/sealed scuttle cover. Our insulation team arrived removed all the old insulation and disposed of it. They installed a layer of 4" Silverglo, insulated scuttle cover, sealed pipe/wire runs with Zypfoam and used blown in Trusoft cellulose on the attic floor.

Beth was having trouble keeping her Pittsburgh, PA home warm in the winter.   The energy bills were high and she was still uncomfortable.   She called Home Environment Solutions to see what we could do to help make her home more energy efficient and enjoyable.   After performing a free in home energy audit Beth and HES came up with a plan together.   

The Home Environment Solutions team arrived and removed the old worn out insulation from the attic.   The attic was then air sealed to stop warm air from escaping the home's living space.   Next a thick layer of blown in insulation was installed to increase the R-Value, preventing radiant heat loss.    

Beth will now be more comfortable in her home all year long with lower heating and cooling bills.
