In this video Insulwise performs common re-insulation measures on a home in Pittsburgh. The goal is to allow homeowners to make their homes far more cooler during the hot summer months, far warmer in the winter months --- while not having to use their air conditioner or furnace nearly as much. We begin with a blower door test-in to measure the existing air leakage rate of the home, then install a series of slant back vents on the roof to provide a source of intake ventilation for the existing ridge vent (this reduces the chances for mold growth in the attic due to attic depressurization), then spray foam the rim joists in the basement, then air seal and insulate the attic, and finally we perform a test-out with the blower door again.

By performing these measures Insulwise was able to reduce air infiltration in the home by an amazing 37%! The insulation, air sealing, and roof ventilation measures combined improved the home by making it far more energy efficient and comfortable than it previously was. During the hot summer months and cold winter days, this homeowner will be GLAD for making this smart investment.
