Solatube in Little River

A homeowner in Little River wanted to bring more light into an extra room in their house. They reached out to Carolina Energy Conservation for a solution and decided that the best option for them was to install a solatube. Solatubes not only brightened the room but also added natural light to a windowless space. Due to their design, they also prevent sunlight from bleaching floors and furniture. It also reflects light to allow for constant and bright light year-round, making for an effective and efficient light source. With the Solatube installed, this family will have more natural light in their home.

While attending the Myrtle Beach Home Shows, this family discovered a solatube display and approached Carolina Energy Conservation. They were attracted to the solatube as a way to bring more natural light into their home. It turned out to be the perfect choice for them. The solatube design allows natural light to enter the home without causing any damage to floors or furniture. Additionally, it features a softening lens that reduces harsh midday summer light and maximizes weaker winter rays, providing a comfortable amount of light throughout the year. With it installed, they will have more natural light within their home, making their home more energy efficient in the process.

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. 

 

Spray Foam in North Myrtle Beach, SC

The homeowner in North Myrtle Beach wanted to prevent water seepage and heat transfer in their home. Since there was no prior insulation, these issues were a concern. The best solution was to add closed-cell spray foam. This type of foam expands to fill gaps and crevices, creating a barrier against water infiltration. It also repels water and has a high R-value, about 6.0 per inch of thickness, indicating excellent insulating properties. This helps prevent heat transfer, making it an effective solution for improving energy efficiency and maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures. Now, their home is insulated and protected from water and heat.
