Why did the customer contact us?

The owners of a new home in Salyersville, KY wanted an energy-controlled space and protection from mold and future moisture problems.

Solutions provided:

Our crew added foam insulation to the basement to keep it comfortable and to reduce moisture during the humid and rainy months. They also insulated the roof deck so energy doesn’t escape through the ceiling, completing a thermal and weather barrier on the house.

How attic heat and drafts affect Salyersville homes

Old batts and blown-in insulation can be matted, wet, dusty or full of gaps, which leaves cold spots that show up as drafts and uneven rooms. Hot, humid afternoons followed by cool nights are normal around Salyersville, and that daily swing is exactly what drives condensation on cool surfaces. Without baffles and air sealing, wind washing through soffit vents can push insulation aside and leave bare spots at the eaves. In a conditioned attic the roof deck stays closer to indoor temperature, so there is less condensation and less heat stress on the roof assembly.
