Problem
A homeowner in Levittown, NY was experiencing significant energy loss and higher utility bills due to poor insulation in their attic. The existing insulation was old, ineffective, and allowed air leaks through the rim joist areas. As a result, the home was losing heat during winter and gaining excess heat during summer. The client reached out to Zavza Seal LLC for a professional attic insulation solution to improve comfort and energy efficiency.
Diagnosis
Our team conducted a full inspection of the attic floor, measuring approximately 186 square feet. We identified deteriorated insulation that no longer provided adequate R-value protection. Air leaks around the rim joist were contributing to drafts and uneven temperatures throughout the home.
Solution Implemented
The Zavza Seal LLC crew developed a detailed plan to restore the attic’s energy efficiency and comfort:
- Prepared the home with protective brown paper in traffic areas to maintain cleanliness.
- Removed and safely disposed of all old, ineffective insulation.
- Installed Knauf Eco-Batt Kraft-faced fiberglass insulation to achieve an R-value of 36, meeting modern energy efficiency standards.
- Conducted a thorough rim joist inspection and sealed any air leaks to ensure a fully insulated and airtight space.
Results
After completing the project, the homeowner noticed immediate improvements:
- Reduced drafts and a more consistent indoor temperature.
- Significant improvement in energy efficiency, leading to lower heating and cooling costs.
- Cleaner and healthier attic environment due to the removal of old insulation.
- Peace of mind knowing the attic now meets modern insulation standards.
