Whole Home Insulation Photo Album: Intense Icicles caused by Dysfunctional Attic in Brecksville, OH
Dangerous icicles were forming on the roof of this customer's home, which caused safety and comfortability concerns. The attic was not sufficiently insulated which caused the ice to form that way. Primary Home Improvements extracted the settled rolled insulation and blew-in new, densely packed cellulose. This home is now more safe and energy-efficient!
Icicles
Icicles are a telltale sign of a lack of attic insulation.
Low R-Value
This pink, rolled fiberglass was not providing enough protection against heat flow resistance and air infiltration.
Extraction
Installers made sure to get rid of the old insulation and leave a clean slate for new cellulose.
Dense Cellulose
Tru-Soft cellulose was blown at an R-49 level to give this attic a draft-resistant shield.
