New Homeowner Wants New Insulation in Attic in Shrewsbury, NJ
After purchasing his dream home in Shrewsbury, NJ, this customer wanted his attic to be reinsulated with blown-in cellulose insulation. So he contacted our Attic Systems division for help and we were sent out.
Since most of the fiberglass insulation was no longer efficient, due to age and other factors, we removed it all and disinfected the attic. Next, we installed Tight Shell Can Light Covers over all the recessed lights throughout the area. These are made out of a fire resistant material and is specifically designed to stop unwanted air leakage through the recessed lights. Once that was done we started air sealing every single gap and crack in the attic. This eliminates air flow between the living space and the attic.
We then placed several measuring sticks throughout the attic, to ensure that the proper amount of R-value is added, and then added over 10 inches of TruSoft blown-in cellulose insulation. TruSoft fills the attic to its recommended insulation levels, maximizes home comfort, has the highest Class-1 fire safety rating, is resistant to mold and pests, is eco-friendly, and optimizes energy usage for year-round peace and savings! Now the homeowner has a newly insulated, energy efficient attic.
