Carolina Energy Conservation Before & After Photos

The POWER of air sealing.
As we all complete home improvements to our home, remember that each new fixture of wire accessing your attic leaves a potential gap big enough for your conditioned air to seep into your attic or for the SC heat to enter into your conditioned space.
If you are feeling the heat from this summer, we offer a free in home evaluation that checks for these issues. We Fix Uncomfortable Homes! Call today: 1-843-748-0295

This Charleston homeowner was committed to enhancing her home's energy efficiency and comfort. She decided to search on Google, and was led to Carolina Energy Conservation as local professionals in her area. After a free and thorough energy evaluation, it was clear that removing the old insulation, air-sealing the whole attic, and upgrading to cellulose insulation would be necessary steps in the right direction. Our expert recommended upgrading to 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. Our spray foam air-sealing technique fills small gaps between the interior of the home and the attic, preventing valuable air-conditioned air from escaping into the attic. With these steps, this home's heating and cooling costs will be dramatically reduced while bringing increasing sustainability. This project was completed within one business day, and this homeowner’s investment in energy efficiency transformed their home!

This homeowner on Daniel Island wanted to prevent mildew in their attic and sought out Carolina Energy Conservation for a solution to this problem. After inspecting the attic, it was determined that the best solution was to remove the old insulation and replace it with Open-Cell spray foam. Open-cell spray foam is effective at preventing mildew by creating an air barrier and reducing the amount of moisture in the attic. This helps to maintain consistent indoor temperatures and reduce the likelihood of condensation, which can lead to mildew growth. Additionally, open-cell spray foam provides excellent insulation with a high R-value, further reducing the risk of moisture buildup and mold formation. With the insulation in place, this homeowner will no longer have to worry about moisture buildup leading to mildew and mold in their attic. 

A homeowner in Daniel Island aimed to transform their attic into a more comfortable, conditioned space. They turned to Carolina Energy Conservation for a solution to address the moisture issues and improve their insulation. After assessing the situation, the best solution would be to use open-cell spray foam insulation. This type of insulation not only provided excellent thermal resistance but also created an effective air seal, preventing moisture infiltration and improving overall energy efficiency. The open-cell spray foam was applied throughout the attic, helping to regulate temperature more effectively and enhance comfort year-round. This upgrade not only resolved the moisture problem but also optimized the attic’s performance, making it a more usable and energy-efficient part of the home.

A homeowner in Pamplico wanted to insulate their metal shed effectively and sought help from Carolina Energy Conservation. After conducting a thorough energy evaluation, it was recommended to use closed-cell spray foam due to its superior insulating properties and moisture resistance. The homeowner opted for this solution to create an efficient thermal barrier and improve the shed's overall energy efficiency. Following the application of closed-cell spray foam, the shed now benefits from significantly improved temperature control and a reduced risk of condensation issues. The installation of spray foam has made the metal shed more comfortable and energy-efficient while also preventing future problems that could be caused by a lack of insulation.
