This Myrtle Beach homeowner was serious about enhancing energy savings within their home and suspected their crawlspace could be an issue. They looked for an expert via Home Advisor and saw Carolina Energy Conservation was a top local specialist in crawlspaces. After a free crawlspace inspection, one of our professionals noticed that there was little to no insulation under the house which would cause a lot of thermal energy loss throughout the year. Our specialist showed the homeowner his findings and Carolina Energy Conservation offered a Clean Space energy efficient package with foundation protection to remedy this. This package would help insulate the home causing a multitude of energy savings, as well as protect the foundation of the home for years to come. This will also help prevent against pests under the house and offer mold resistance due to condensation buildup in the crawlspace. This installation was completed within a few short weeks from the initial inspection, and this package offered will end up paying for itself in energy savings alone!
This Myrtle Beach homeowner sought a professional to guide them toward reducing their air conditioning costs. After a quick Google search, they were lead to Carolina Energy Conservation as top local experts who could do just that. Carolina Energy Conservation promptly sent out one of our Attic specialists for a free inspection, and during that inspection he noticed the lack of insulation on the ductwork which would contribute to high heating and cooling costs. Our specialist recommended duct encapsulation using spray foam, which would maximize the air conditioning unit’s thermal performance and help resolve temperature differences from room to room. This would increase overall comfort while reducing the amount of time the AC unit needs to run to keep every room at the desired temperature, thereby lowering energy costs.
This Myrtle Beach homeowner was committed to enhancing his home's energy efficiency and comfort. He decided to search on home advisor, and was led to Carolina Energy Conservation as local professionals in her area. After a free and thorough energy evaluation, it was clear that removing the old fiberglass insulation and upgrading to cellulose insulation would be a necessary step in the right direction. Our expert recommended upgrading to cellulose with an R-38 value because it would maximize thermal performance of the attic space as well as being an eco friendly, fire resistant solution. Doing this will reduce this home's heating and cooling costs while increasing sustainability of the air conditioning unit. This project was completed within one business day, and this homeowner’s investment in energy efficiency transformed their home!
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.
This homeowner in Myrtle Beach wished to brighten their kitchen with natural light. They came to Carolina Energy Conservation, and after an evaluation, adding a Solatube was perfect for them. By installing a Solatube above their countertop, their whole kitchen will receive consistent and bright natural light without fading their flooring as a skylight would. This is because the design of the Solatube filters the light through a softening lens, making it less harsh on the flooring and furniture. It also bends and reflects the light, so you have consistent light year-round, making it a perfect choice for this homeowner.
