This newly purchased home that had a history of ice damming & high energy costs. Upon inspection, the attic & front knee wall only had 2" of old insulation. Heat from the living space was escaping into the knee wall area and warming the roof deck which leads to snow melt and severe ice dams. This thermal envelope flaw is very common with Cape styled houses.

A few months ago Transformations contacted CHP to discuss the opportunity to work with them on their net-zero energy home building projects in Easthampton and Northampton. CHP was sought out because of their tremendous building envelope installation practices and, specifically, for attention to the integrity of the air barrier.
