Photo Album: Woodbridge VA Attic Insulation Project
This homeowner in Woodbridge VA wanted to reduce the ability to hear noise from outside of the home across the top level. Our Home Performance Expert Pedro was able to design a project that would deliver that result along with improved comfort in the home and lower energy use. Our production team removed the existing insulation to expose the floor of the attic. All of the small gaps and cracks where air and sound were able to travel in and out of the attic were sealed with Zyp Foam. Other vents and places in the attic that allowed sound and uncontrolled air flow were sealed and covered. Silver Glo Panel insulation was used to cover sections of the attic walls and also air sealed with more Zyp Foam. Finally the attic was filled with Tru Soft cellulose insulation.
