This homeowner's attic had a number of improvements done to it. Insulwise air sealed the attic floor with foam, installed additional vents to balance the roof ventilation, vented the bathroom vents to the outside through the roof, eliminated mold that had been growing on the underside of the roof, built a sealed insulated hatch around the attic ladder, constructed a 16 ft x 12 ft raised storage platform, and finally top coated the original R-19 fiberglass batts with an additional R-30 level of blown cellulose insulation to achieve a net R-49 attic. The final outcome is a far more energy efficient and comfortable home, with the benefit of sturdy storage platform in the attic.

Your cellulose install is one of the best I’ve seen. Very flat and even.

Thank you! This installation was blown in by our crew chief Jake. He's been at Insulwise for several years and as you can see, he takes pride in his work. I'll pass this on to him! Cheers, Andy

Is this more effective than a drop down stairs zipper tent?

Yes, when built correctly it will be far more effective. When we test the zipper tents with a blower door (they basically implode from the home being depressurized) we see 1) substantial air leakage moving through the zippered area and around the outer seams and 2) 1-2" inches of fiberglass insulation does not offer nearly the R-Value / thermal resistance / insulation value that 2" inches of extruded foam board does. The main thing that needs to be done correctly with our ladder hatch solution is for the "inner lip" that the foam board sits on to be level on all sides. I highlight how to do that in the video. Usually after a few years the zippers on the zipper tents degrade as well. The zipper tents are much better than nothing at all, and a cheap and fast solution. But our ladder hatch solution we believe to be superior when constructed correctly. Hope this helps! Andy
