Project Overview

In Coram, NY, Zavza Seal LLC successfully completed an insulation installation in Coram project designed to enhance energy efficiency and thermal performance for a residential property. The project focused on insulating two key areas: the cavity between a false wall and the foundation wall, and a single stud wall. By using dense-packed blown-in cellulose insulation, we achieved significant R-Value improvements, aligning with the client’s goals of reducing energy loss and creating a more comfortable indoor environment.

Project Scope and Specifications

• Location: Coram, NY
• Total Insulation Area: Approx. 497 square feet
• Target Areas:
  1. Wall cavity between the false wall and the foundation wall:
     • Dimensions: 56’L x 7’H
     • Thickness: 9 inches
     • Achieved R-Value: R-36
  2. Single stud wall:
     • Dimensions: 15’L x 7’H
     • Thickness: 3 ½ inches
     • Achieved R-Value: R-14

Solution Implementation

1. Preparation:
   • Installed two drywall sections to seal the cavities:
     • Bathroom wall: 3′ x 7′
     • Boiler room wall: 18″ x 7′
   • Ensured proper sealing of cavities to facilitate optimal insulation packing.
2. Insulation Process:
   • Cut access ports in the walls for precise delivery of blown-in cellulose insulation.
   • “Dense-packed” cellulose was used to maximize thermal resistance and minimize air infiltration.
3. Post-Installation:
   • Patched, taped, and compounded the access openings for a seamless finish.
   • Note: Final sanding and painting were left for the client’s preferred contractor.

Results and Benefits

• Energy Efficiency: The insulation installation in Coram upgrades significantly improved the home’s thermal envelope, reducing heat loss and improving indoor comfort.
• Cost Savings: By increasing the R-Value to R-36 in the main wall cavity and R-14 in the single stud wall, the project ensures lower heating and cooling costs.
• Sustainability: Cellulose insulation is an eco-friendly choice, made from recycled materials and providing excellent energy efficiency.
• Client Satisfaction: The client expressed satisfaction with the timely and professional execution of the project, appreciating the tailored solution and attention to detail.
