Project Overview

In Jamaica, NY, Zavza Seal LLC undertook a project focused on improving the insulation and energy efficiency of a residential property. The scope of work covered the first-floor west wall, ensuring the property remained energy-efficient, comfortable, and free of drafts. This project showcases Zavza Seal’s expertise in blown-in insulation and air-sealing solutions to meet modern energy standards.

Challenges Faced

1. Limited Access Space:
   The first-floor west wall, wrapping around the southwest corner for an additional 15 linear feet, had confined spaces, making it challenging to install insulation effectively.
2. Drafty Windows:
   The existing windows allowed air leakage, resulting in energy loss and discomfort for the residents.
3. Matching Aesthetic Needs:
   Patching access ports and ensuring they blended seamlessly with the existing wall required precision and aesthetic sensitivity.

Scope of Work

1. Insulation Installation

• Subject Area: 45 linear feet of the west wall, wrapping around the southwest corner for an additional 15 linear feet, approximately 8 feet high.
• Steps Taken:
  • Cut strategic access points along the subject area to facilitate the blow-in cellulose insulation process.
  • Used a high-performance blow-in machine to fill wall cavities completely, ensuring optimal insulation coverage.
  • Patched the access ports upon completion to maintain the wall’s integrity and prepare for aesthetic restoration.

2. Air-Sealing

• Sealed the windows along the subject area to eliminate drafts and prevent energy waste. This process involved applying premium-grade sealants to close any gaps, ensuring long-term airtightness.

3. Optional Sanding and Painting

• Once the compound dried, Zavza Seal’s team returned to sand and smooth the patched access ports.
• Applied customer-provided paint to blend the ports with the surrounding wall, achieving the best possible color match for a seamless appearance.

Results and Benefits

• Enhanced Energy Efficiency: The blown-in cellulose insulation and window air-sealing significantly reduced heat loss, enhancing the property’s overall energy efficiency.
• Improved Comfort: Eliminating drafts ensured a more consistent indoor temperature, improving the living experience for the residents.
• Aesthetic Integrity Maintained: The patched and painted access ports seamlessly blended with the existing walls, preserving the property’s visual appeal.
