Isle, MN New Build Insulated with Spray Foam

Homeowners in Isle, MN built a new structure on their property that they were in the process of finishing. In order to enjoy that space year-round, they knew they needed a permanent solution to keep it comfortable.

Newly-Built Garage in Duluth, MN Insulated

Homeowners in Duluth, MN built this new garage on their property that they were in the process of finishing. In order to enjoy that space year-round, they knew they needed a permanent solution to keep it comfortable.

Our Dr. Energy Saver® Design Specialist visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the insulation work. Our production crew installed 3 inches of closed-cell spray foam to seal and insulate the structure. Spray foam expands after its applied, reaching tight spaces and filling gaps where air could escape.

Homeowners in Duluth, MN Insulate Attic to Fix Cold and Drafty Rooms

These Duluth, MN homeowners needed a year-round solution for making their home more comfortable. The wintertime made their kitchen and living areas cold and drafty, and caused certain rooms to heat up in the summertime as well. After 25 years in the home, and plans to live there for many more, these 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 a combination of rigid foam and blown-in insulation were necessary to effectively seal the space.

Our production crew first removed the existing insulation and sealed the gaps in building material and spaces surrounding the attic ducts with ZypFoam™. From there, the applied TerraBlock™ directly to the super deck in the attic. They also blew-in a heavy layer of our TruSoft™ cellulose into the space. TruSoft™ has a higher R-value than fiberglass and other cellulose materials and will work wonders to protect the space. 

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

Duluth, MN Homeowners Finish Garage with Tru-Soft™ Cellulose

Homeowners in Duluth, MN were in the process of finishing their garage but needed a solution for insulation to be able to use the space year-round. 

Our Dr. Energy Saver® Design Specialist visited the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the insulation work. Because the garage already had drywall up, our production crew drilled holes into the drywall and dense-packed it with our ultra-dense Tru-Soft™ cellulose. This insulation is fire-resistant and has an R-value much higher than fiberglass, and most rigid foam insulations. 

These homeowners can now enjoy a comfortable garage space year-round for projects, and all their storage needs. 

Duluth, MN Homeowner Preps to Sell by Insulating Attic

This Duluth, MN home had an attic that wasn't properly insulated. When warm air from the home met the cold attic, condensation was forming. In turn, this was causing damage to the insulation and the living space below it. After receiving a recommendation from a home inspector, the home owner contacted DBS for a solution.

A Dr. Energy Saver® Design Specialist went to the home and provided a free, no-obligation estimate for the work. After inspection, it was determined that air sealing and sufficient spray foam were necessary to offer a proper seal to the attic space. 

Our production crew first sealed the gaps in building material and spaces surrounding the attic ducts with ZypFoam™. From there, they completely sealed the space with closed-cell spray foam, at 3-5 inches depending on the location in the attic. 

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