Challenge

This Washington, VA homeowner complained of cold drafts around the entire home during the winter.

Solution

After a thorough evaluation, the Comfenergy expert suggested to have all of the exterior walls dense packed with TruSoft cellulose insulation. This dense packing process compacts any existing insulation that is allowing air to flow around or throught it. The TruSoft cellulose also fills any air gaps in the thermal envelope of the building.

Project Summary

Evaluator: Carl Depner

The vinyl siding is removed temporarily to be able to access the wall cavities.
