Unlocking Energy Efficiency

Most of us understand the benefits of adding additional insulation, similar to adding a blanket to your home. However, effective energy savings require a two-step approach: 1. Air Sealing and 2. Insulating.

According to EnergyStar, 9 out of 10 attics are improperly insulated. By first sealing air leaks and then insulating, you can significantly enhance your home's energy efficiency. Air sealing prevents drafts and reduces energy loss, while insulation further regulates temperature, making your home more comfortable, quieter, and energy-efficient.

Why Air Seal Your Attic with DMV Insulation?

There are several compelling reasons why choosing DMV Insulation to air seal your attic is a smart decision. Our team of experts specializes in enhancing your home's efficiency and comfort in multiple ways, including:

1

Sealing Leaks for Enhanced Insulation

DMV Insulation utilizes advanced techniques and top-quality materials to seal leaks between living areas and the attic. Using low-pressure spray foam, we create a seamless barrier on the attic floor, which also serves as the ceiling for your home's main living spaces. Our process begins with a comprehensive home energy audit to pinpoint areas where your insulation might be leaking.

2

Preserving Indoor Air Quality

Attics often harbor various contaminants such as dust, mold, allergens, fumes, rodent feces, moisture, and combustion fumes. Proper air sealing by DMV Insulation ensures that these harmful substances stay contained, preventing them from circulating throughout the rest of your home and safeguarding your family's well-being.

3

Retaining Heated and Conditioned Air

In many homes, air escapes through leaks, allowing sometimes-contaminated attic air to infiltrate your living spaces. DMV Insulation identifies these areas and expertly seals them, reducing energy waste and relieving your air conditioning system from unnecessary strain.

4

Optimizing Attic Insulation

Proper air sealing is the foundation for effective insulation. DMV Insulation ensures that your attic space is thoroughly sealed before installing new, efficient insulation. This meticulous approach allows the insulation to function as an effective barrier against hot, humid air, creating a comfortable environment inside your home.

5

Preparing for Efficient Insulation

Once your attic is meticulously air sealed, DMV Insulation can install new, high-quality insulation. Regardless of the type you choose, improving your attic's R-value is a significant step towards reducing energy consumption and enhancing your home's thermal efficiency.
