Our Attic Insulation & Air Sealing Process
Blower Door Testing
Blower door testing is a diagnostic method used to measure the airtightness of buildings. The process involves installing a powerful fan (the blower door) into the frame of an exterior door. Once activated, this fan pulls air out of the house, lowering the air pressure inside. The higher outside air pressure then flows back into the house through unsealed cracks and openings, revealing the exact spots where your home is losing energy.
Clean Up & Air Sealing
The next step in the process is to remove the old insulation and begin sealing cracks, openings, and other areas where air is escaping from your home. This step is crucial as removing the old insulation not only allows for access to these cracks and openings, but also allows us to start from scratch with a new bed of insulation for your home. This will enable us to use less material to gain the necessary insulation efficiency throughout your attic.
Blow-in New Insulation
Adding new blow-in insulation to your attic is the last step our team takes to improve the energy efficiency of the house. Our team typically blows in insulation that will bring your attic insulation rating up to R-49 or current code requirements for your home. This, coupled with our air sealing techniques, will keep your home comfortable and reduce your energy bills.
