The Unseen Element of a High-Performance Home

An under-performing attic can manifest in several ways, detracting from the enjoyment and efficiency of your home.

- Compromised Climate Control: You experience frustratingly inconsistent temperatures, especially a second floor that becomes uncomfortably hot and stuffy during the summer months.
- Inefficient Energy Consumption: Your heating and cooling systems run more than they should, a clear sign that the conditioned air you are paying for is escaping through your ceiling and roof.

–Risk of Ice Dams and Moisture: Heat loss into the attic is the direct cause of destructive ice dams on your roofline. This trapped heat can also contribute to moisture and condensation issues that threaten your home’s structure.

Our Methodical Approach to Attic Optimization

We provide a comprehensive, science-based solution to permanently improve your home’s thermal performance.

A Comprehensive Performance Audit

Our process begins with a detailed audit of your attic. We measure the depth and effectiveness (R-value) of your existing insulation, assess the attic’s ventilation system, and identify critical air leaks between your living space and the attic.

Meticulous Air Sealing

Before adding a single piece of insulation, we perform the crucial step of air sealing. We meticulously seal all gaps, cracks, and penetrations around light fixtures, plumbing stacks, and electrical wiring. This creates a true air barrier, stopping the “chimney effect” of warm air escaping into your attic.

Frequently Asked Questions about Attic Performance

My Northville home is relatively new. Could it really need more insulation?

It is very common. Many production builders install only the minimum amount of insulation required by building codes to pass inspection. This is often significantly less than the amount recommended for optimal energy efficiency and comfort. An insulation upgrade is one of the most effective improvements you can make to a newer home.

What is the recommended R-value for a high-performance home in Northville?

For our specific climate zone in Southeast Michigan, the U.S. Department of Energy recommends an attic insulation level between R49 and R60. Achieving this target is the key to maximizing your energy savings and ensuring your home performs at its peak.

Will the insulation process be disruptive to my home?

Not at all. Our process is designed to be clean, quick, and non-intrusive. Our professional crew takes great care to protect your home by laying down coverings from the entrance to the attic access point. All work is contained within the attic, and we leave your home just as clean as we found it.
