Comfenergy Before & After Photos

This Catlett, VA homeowner was having issues with their master bedroom being hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Upon an evaluation by Comfenergy, we found one of the walls of the master bedroom were adjacent to the attic above the garage.  The only insulation providing a thermal barrier between this wall and the hot/cold attic on the other side, was falling fiberglass insulation.

Even if fiberglass were in place on this wall it still would not stop air movement and heat transfer through it.  Fiberglass is ONLY effective if it is sandwiched on all sides by an air barrier.

Comfenergy used 2" thick SilverGlo EPS foam boards to build an additional R10 of thermal barrier along the back side of this wall.  More importantly it creates an air barrier for the fiberglass and makes it effective!

Now this customer has a total of R23 on this wall and its air tight!  Comfort at its best!

This home in Spotsylvania VA was too hot in the summer months.  Our Sales Professional Eric was able to identify a need for a radiant barrier in the attic to help keep the external sun rays from heating up the attic space.  This will keep the attic space cooler and let the air seal and insulation that was also done, have a more effective impact on the comfort of the home.  

This before photo shows a vertical wall in an attic insulated with fiberglass insulation. This fiberglass allows hot/cold air to travel through it and touch the drywall, thus allowing the heat and/or cold to transfer into the living space.

The after picture shows the fiberglass removed and newly insulated using closed cell spray foam.  This builds a great protective thermal and air barrier and makes the top floor of this home cooler in the summer months.

This Leesburg, VA homeowner had mold growing in their vented attic assembly that was causing the family to develop allergies and get sick very often.  Comfenergy discovered this attic mold and treated it with MoldX-2 before air sealing, insulating and providing other services.

These clients were interested in improving the overall efficiency of their home. They had uneven temperatures from room to room and poor airflow through the house. Don Calnen performed a home inspection and identified the need for improved insulation and air sealing in the attic. We removed the old insulation, installed several can light covers and then air sealed with ZypFoam. The knee walls in the attic were fitted with foam boards to seal and insulate before the rest of the attic was filled with TruSoft blown cellulose insulation.
