Solatube Transformation in a Bathroom in Little River, SC

It is wonderful to make a homeowner's day brighter and we did just that in Little River, South Carolina. This new construction home was almost perfect and the homeowner knew exactly what she wanted: A Solatube in both the bathroom and hallway. She had Solatubes in her previous home. "It is wonderful to go throughout the day without turning on lights in every room." We did it again, the natural light is such a beautiful addition to her home.

Our customer had a very dark kitchen area that they wanted to brighten up all year round. They installed a 14 inch Solatube to bring in natural daylight and brighten up the kitchen and breakfast area. The Solatube installed in less than two hours. Now this customer will have Solatube beautiful daylight in their kitchen area all year round. This makes their home brighter and more cheerful. 

Encapsulated Attic Ducts and New Solatube Attic Fan in North Myrtle Beach

After discovering a leaking duct, this home owner contacted Carolina Energy Conservation to look at their attic space. The current blown in insulation was low and not up to code. We suggested the removal and disposal of the existing insulation, followed by air sealing the attic and new blown in cellulose to R38. We encapsulated the ducts throughout the attic and installed a 35 watt Solatube attic fan. The home is now ready for lower electric bills throughout all the season. 

 

Solatube Install in Myrtle Beach, SC

"This is just amazing!" exclaimed out Happy Homeowner. This is exactly what we love to hear when our Homeowner walks in after their #Solatube is installed.
She goes on to explain that their home was the model home for the neighborhood. As an outdoor lover she found her kitchen was depressing due to its central location. It is not located near windows. "We spent 5 weeks waiting on our perfect pendent lights. The new kitchen sink went in last week. Now we have the perfect #dayligiht for our kitchen."

It was a delight to hear her excitement the second she stepped back in the home after running errands. The Solatube install only takes about 2 hours and made a great impact on the overall appearance of their interior.

Attic Insulation Project in Myrtle Beach

A Myrtle Beach couple wanted to upgrade their attic insulation, which is a popular energy-saving technique. 

More energy is lost through the attic than any other part of the house.

CEC installers removed old attic insulation and replaced with fresh, clean insulation.

To removed old insulation, we used a blowing machine outside the house to force a blown insulation through a long, flexible hose that extends all the way into the attic, where a team member directs the flow.

Our team sealed any opening and top plates with expanding polyurethane foam.

This closed-cell foam method is often preferred for home insulation projects because it forms a more effective moisture barrier. 

Finally, we wrapped all chimneys with fireproof rockwool.

These methods will increase this couple’s home comfort and reduce their energy bills.
