Carolina Energy Conservation Before & After Photos

This Florence homeowner was looking to get the most out of his HVAC systems as well as make his home more energy efficient. He searched on Thumbtack for a local Energy Conservation Specialist and saw Carolina Energy Conservation was top rated in his area. He reached out for a free energy evaluation, and Carolina Energy Conservation promptly sent one of our specialists to identify potential energy savings and inspect the home. Upon entering the attic, our expert identified a multitude of air gaps with a thermal detection device and pointed out the insufficient amount of blown-in fiberglass insulation. Our specialist presented his findings and recommended replacing the old insulation with all new spray foam for maximum thermal efficiency. This would save the homeowner significant energy costs, improve efficiency of is HVAC units, and also fix any air sealing issues with her current product. Carolina Energy Conservation was able to complete this project for the homeowner within a few short business days and this premier spray foam package will end up paying for itself in energy savings alone! 

The Charleston Homeowner noticed their air conditioner could not keep up through the summer months. He searched for a reliable energy conservation specialist and found us through Angi Home Services. The Carolina Energy Conservation Specialist completed a free energy evaluation with pictures in the attic. Finding just two inches of blown in insulation, the Homeowner was not surprised to find they were under insulated.

This Hanahan homeowner was committed to improving his home’s energy efficiency and overall comfort after noticing rising utility costs during peak months. He searched on Google for a local specialist, and found that Carolina Energy Conservation was a top rated contractor who offers free home energy evaluations. After he reached out, Carolina Energy Conservation swiftly sent out a specialist who discovered a lack of attic insulation, explaining the significant energy loss experienced during peak months. Our expert presented his findings, and it was clear that blowing in cellulose insulation and air sealing would be necessary steps in the right direction towards making this home more energy efficient. Our expert recommended cellulose with an R-38 value because it would maximize thermal performance of the attic space as well as being an eco friendly, fire resistant solution. Air sealing this attic space would also help prevent fresh, air conditioned air from escaping into the attic as well. This project was completed within a few short business days, and this homeowner’s investment in energy efficiency transformed their home!

The North Charleston family wanted to enhance their family room by bringing in more natural light. After attending the Charleston Cajun Festival and speaking with Carolina Energy Conservation, they chose to install a Solatube as the perfect addition to their home. The Solatube's design allows for consistent bright natural light to enter the home without causing damage to the furniture and flooring. This also ensures year-round constant light as it redirects strong midday summer rays to soften the light and weak winter light to maximize brightness. As an extra feature, it also has a solar-powered nightlight that turns on automatically after the sunsets to allow extra visibility in the home, both brightening and making the home more energy efficient.
