General Info
The Insulation Man is a full service Home Performance Contracting Business that has existed under current management since 1989. The Insulation Man provides effective building envelope solutions for new construction and retrofits of older homes and businesses within an 80 mile radius of Binghamton, NY. We offer technical assistance with home performance issues concerning moisture, heat loss, and indoor air quality. We use Diagnostic Equipment and our own experience and knowledge to find problems and recommend solutions. Once the problems are found we use urethane foam, cellulose, and other materials to repair faults in the building envelope. We also use subcontractors to repair or replace HVAC equipment and distribution systems, windows, and doors. Consulting Services * During this part of the home assessment, or estimate, we spend some time asking you, the homeowner, what types of issues you notice within the structure. * Some common issues that are brought up during estimates are: * "Cold" rooms * "Hot" rooms * Excessive heat in attic or walk down stairways * Moisture issues within the structure * Ice dams/icicles * Heat loss and more * By discussing this information with you up front we are able to gain a perspective of what to look for when performing our diagnostic testing services Testing Services * During this part of the home assessment we will bring in a few different instruments to diagnose the structure in order to get a better idea of what the issues are and more importantly how to resolve them! * A few of the instruments used in this part of the process include: A blower door, manometer, infrared camera, smoke pencil, carbon monoxide detector and possibly more depending on the structure Insulation Services: * Finally, after finding the issues within the structure and confirming the source, we begin to analyze the best approach to treating your specific structure. * "The Best" approach is rarely the same from house to house. Certain features such as house size, occupancy levels/frequency, usage of specific rooms, and so on create a very unique puzzle for each structure. It is very possibly that cellulose will be "The Best" approach for your neighbors whereas Spray Foam, lighting, appliances or a new HVAC device would be a better idea for you. * For this reason, this step in the process of making your home more comfortable occasionally requires some additional consulting.
