Carolina Energy Conservation Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Daniel Island aimed to transform their attic into a more comfortable, conditioned space. They turned to Carolina Energy Conservation for a solution to address the moisture issues and improve their insulation. After assessing the situation, the best solution would be to use open-cell spray foam insulation. This type of insulation not only provided excellent thermal resistance but also created an effective air seal, preventing moisture infiltration and improving overall energy efficiency. The open-cell spray foam was applied throughout the attic, helping to regulate temperature more effectively and enhance comfort year-round. This upgrade not only resolved the moisture problem but also optimized the attic’s performance, making it a more usable and energy-efficient part of the home.

The homeowner wanted a solution to not turning on her 4 kitchen can lights. She loved the bright light, but was bothered by having 4 lights on midday. She new a skylight was not the solution to fit between her can lighting. She opted for a 14 inch Solatube Daylight system and can't wait to share her room's transformation with friends!

This homeowner in Charleston wanted to brighten their kitchen and bring more natural light into the home. After discovering Carolina Energy Conservation, they decided that adding a solatube would be perfect. Solatubes are a great way to bring natural light into a home, as they are designed to allow a consistent and comfortable amount of light to be added without damaging furniture and flooring. They also have a softening lens that redirects overbearing midday summer rays to make them more comfortable within the home. Its design also bends the weaker rays of winter to allow for consistent light year-round. Bringing natural, consistent, and comfortable light into the home. 

In Charleston, a homeowner committed to enhancing both comfort and energy efficiency sought the expertise of Carolina Energy Conservation. After a thorough energy evaluation, it was clear that improving insulation would be an essential step. The evaluation recommended upgrading to cellulose insulation with an R-38 value to maximize thermal performance. This choice not only promised to reduce heating and cooling costs significantly but also offered an eco-friendly solution by using recycled materials. The cellulose insulation, known for its superior air sealing and thermal resistance, was installed throughout the home, ensuring a more consistent indoor temperature and a more sustainable living environment. The homeowner’s investment in energy efficiency transformed their house, making it more comfortable and cost-effective. 

This homeowner in Mount Pleasant contacted Carolina Energy Conservation because they noticed cold drafts coming through the floors and suspected it was caused by the lack of insulation in the crawlspace. Upon inspection, it was found that the insulation was visibly damaged and had begun to grow mold. To fix this issue, the damaged insulation was removed and replaced with closed-cell spray foam insulation. This type of insulation is very effective in preventing drafts, as it forms a seamless barrier that seals off gaps and voids, while also providing excellent temperature resistance. After the spray foam is installed, the floor will effectively block out air, preventing drafts.
