Lowes Weatherization

Too many homeowners suffer the consequences of insufficient insulation, air leaks or drafty windows. When this happens, you not only lose control over the temperature in your own home, but you wind up paying too much on energy bills. Fortunately, with the help of a quality, caring contractor, you can make your home more energy-efficient. That will allow you to enjoy it again while saving money in the process. Josh Lowe's Dr. Energy Saver is dedicated to properly weatherproofing homes. We install insulation and replacement windows and provide homes with air sealing and duct repair/replacement services.

Every industry seems to have its own jargon, and construction/insulation is no exception. When you look up the definition of R-value, you will see some garble like "the capacity of an insulating material to resist heat flow." Or you might find the eq. Most of us know vermiculite as an ingredient in potting soil; it helps to retain moisture. It is reasonable to assume that your attic's vermiculite contains asbestos. According to the US Geological Survey, an estimate one million homes in the United.

Western Oregon is in Zone 4, and new construction code here for the floor is a minimum of R-30. For attic insulation, it is R-38 minimum. However, we do recommend insulating your attic to R-60. Walls have a minimum R-value of R-21. This hazardous allergen can create ailments so removing mold from your home is critical for the health of your family. Our Energy Consultant will investigate your home to determine what is happening to cause the mold growth. The first step is to swiftly treat the mold growth and to stop it from growing further.

The crew that showed up was very professional. Unfortunately, all the work requested could not be completed; however, was accommodated by having a new game plan which was handled by (foreman) Mr. Brown to my satisfaction. Cameron B and crew did a great job for us! They proactively communicated and made sure we understood the work and any changes needed. We look forward to having them back to complete our attic insulation. The team was absolutely amazing and thorough. Very kind and professional. Answered all my questions.

When this Eugene, OR homeowner called to book an appointment and told us an animal had gotten under her house and ripped up the insulation, she was not kidding! This 5-bedroom home in Oregon City, OR had rooms that were too hot in the summer. Even though the home was built in 1996-1997, it was clear to the owners that insulation had been scrimped on! Solution This couple met us at the county fair and set up a time for one of our energy consultants to investigate. High humidity, wet insulation, and mold lived in the storage area above the crawl space.

This Salem, OR homeowner knew there was little to no insulation in the attic above, and adjacent, to the bedroom. Besides finding this to be the case, our energy consultant also discovered the bath fan was just dumping moist air into the attic! This homeowner's upstairs in her house in the Cal Young area of Eugene was extra-hot, so she researched and found our company online. When our energy consultant investigated her attic, he found hardly an insulation (see BEFORE photo), and three (THREE!) This Cottage Grove, OR area family bought this house recently and wanted an evaluation of their insulation.
