Before & After Photos

Before:

When cold weather hits, proper attic insulation is important to keep your home warm and energy efficient through the winter. Adding more insulation on top of old may not give you the results you need to keep the home comfortable. A continuous vapour barrier under the insulation is a vital component to keep warm air in and cold air out.

After:

Advanced Basement Systems will remove the old insulation then seal all openings before adding the required amount of blown-in cellulose. 17 inches of insulation is the recommended amount to bring the R-value up to R60.

Before:

A complete air/vapour barrier is very important for insulation to work best. Many insulation materials will allow air to travel through it as pressure in the home equalizes. Attic insulation is no different. The home was older and did not have a continuous barrier between the living area and the attic. A closed-cell spray foam was applied to provide the barrier.

After:

Advanced Basement Systems removed the old insulation, applied a closed-cell spray foam to provide the air/vapour barrier required. Once completed, 17 inches of blown-in cellulose finished the job to give the homeowner R-60 recommended insulation.

Before

The attic in the home was insulated using 6” fiberglass batt insulation. The R value for this application is approximately R20 while the recommended value for homes in Ontario is R60. The existing forced the home’s HVAC system to work harder and more often to maintain a comfortable living space.

After

Advanced Basement Systems replaced the batt insulation with cellulose blown-in up to a thickness of R60. The result will reduce the energy required to heat/cool the home and meet the recommended levels.
