Project Overview

Zavza Seal LLC was contracted to improve the attic insulation of a home in Ridge, NY, enhancing energy efficiency and indoor comfort. The homeowner sought a cost-effective insulation solution that would meet Department of Energy (DOE) recommendations while also improving indoor air quality and reducing outside noise.

Challenges

• The existing fiberglass batt insulation was insufficient for achieving an optimal
• Air leaks through gaps and holes in the attic reduced overall energy efficiency.
• Hi-hat lights presented insulation and fire safety concerns.

Our Solution

To effectively insulate the attic and meet the homeowner’s energy efficiency goals, Zavza Seal LLC implemented a multi-step insulation process:

✅ Blown-In Cellulose Insulation

• We applied blown-in cellulose insulation over the existing fiberglass batt insulation.
• The insulation was installed evenly across all floor joists to achieve an R-value of 49, ensuring compliance with DOE recommendations.

✅ Air Sealing for Maximum Efficiency

• All gaps and holes in the attic were sealed to eliminate air leaks, preventing heat loss and improving indoor temperature regulation.

✅ Sealing & Insulating Hi-Hat Lights

• We covered, sealed, and insulated all hi-hat lights (recessed lighting) to prevent heat transfer and enhance overall energy efficiency.

Results & Benefits

✔ Improved Energy Efficiency: The R-49 insulation value significantly reduces heat loss, lowering energy bills and improving year-round comfort.

✔ Enhanced Indoor Air Quality: Our environmentally friendly insulation contributes to a healthier indoor environment, free from harmful chemicals.

✔ Fire & Moisture Resistance: The insulation is fire-resistant (Class 1 fire rating) and provides excellent water and moisture resistance, reducing the risk of mold growth.

✔ Superior Sound Absorption: The insulation helps block outside noise, creating a quieter indoor space for the homeowner.
