Contaminated to Clean in Holyoke, MN

Before	After

This homeowner in Holyoke, MN was never too concerned about the quality of his crawl space. Once he learned about the effects of a poor crawl space, he decided to do something about it. After doing some research, he found DBS and reached out to them to set up an appointment to have a system design specialist come evaluate his home. Following a brief friendly phone conversation with the office staff, an appointment was set to have DBS’ home comfort specialist make a trip out to the home for a free no obligation estimate. The specialist did a thorough inspection of the home and explained to the homeowner the best possible solution. First, the crawl space should be cleaned and the old insulation should be removed before the new installation could begin. To best insulate the space, SilverGlo™ high-performance graphite insulation should be installed on the crawl space walls. Then, each rim joist should be spray foamed throughout the entire crawl space which would further eliminate any cool drafts from entering the home. This top of the line solution would leave the homeowner with a clean, warm and dry crawl space. After the specialist and homeowner came to a comfortable price agreement, a date was set to have the production crew professionally complete the installation. This great solution left the home with a higher level of energy efficiency and a clean dry crawl space.
