Attic and Crawl Space Sealing for Drafty Longville, MN Home

A homeowner in Longville, MN was feeling the effects of their poorly insulated home. They noted temperature and humidity fluctuations, as well as cold floors during winter months, producing high energy bills. To learn more about what steps were needed to properly insluate the home, they reached out to us about our Dr. Energy Saver® services. 

A Design Specialist trained in energy-saving solutions visited the home to provide a free, no-obligation estimate. It was determined that both the crawl space and attic needed attention. A DBS foreman and crew installed CleanSpace® vapor barrier over drainage matting in the dirt crawl space. These two products work together to keep moisture and pests at bay. To further prevent moisture and the growth of mold, closed-cell spray foam was applied to fully seal and regulate temperature in the space. 

For the attic, our team first removed the existing insultion and proceeded in air sealing the entire space. Afterwards, they replaced the blown-in insulation using cellulose, which has an incredible R-value. 

The homeowner was happy with the work done, resulting in a great improvement of this home's overall health. 

Cold Home in Duluth, MN More Comfortable with Dr. Energy Saver® Insulation

Homeowners in Duluth, MN were looking to make their home more comfortable year-round. Looking to prevent ice dams in the winter and reduce heating bills, the homeowners reached out to DBS for a permanent solution.

A Dr. Energy Saver® Design Specialist went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspecting the property and conducting an energy audit, it was determined that air sealing, and blown-in insulation were necessary to effectively seal the space.

Our production crew first removed the existing insulation in the attic. They then sealed the gaps in building material and spaces surrounding the attic ducts with a layer of Spray Foam. From there, they used our TruSoft™ cellulose to blow into the space. TruSoft™ has a higher R-value than fiberglass and other cellulose materials. 

Sealing the attic was key to prevent warm air from escaping the home, improving the overall energy-efficiency and health of the space.
