Challenge

This Leesburg, VA homeowner was remodeling this old home and flipping it.  She ran into a few issues with being able to insulate the dwelling properly as it was built long ago.  Many of the older construction styles will not facilitate newer, more efficient air sealing and insulation.

Solution

Comfenergy put together a two-part solution in which spray foam was used on the roof deck.  This kept the homeowner from having to reconstruct the roof, yet still have great efficiency from the insulation.  The walls of the home were fine to be able to handle today's insulation codes, so cheaper fiberglass insulation was used to save money.

This series of photos shows the "hybrid" type of system developed by Comfenergy.
