Does my home need Air Sealing?

If your home experiences any of these problems, the answer is yes.

Recessed Can Light

Not all Can Lights are compatible with insulation. In fact, covering some recessed can lights can be a fire hazard. Having a Rockwool cover not only protects you from fire hazards but also prevents air leakage and energy loss.

Sky Lights & Gaps

The main loss of energy is not having gaps sealed off. Just insulating isn’t enough. We foam seal any areas with gabs, including skylights, framing gaps, electrical, plumbing, and ceiling fans. 

What Would We Seal?

Ducts, Registers & Returns – Often one of the most neglected areas when it comes to sealing an attic, yet also one of the most crucial. Even if you have recently installed insulation, failing to properly seal these areas can lead to bridging and gaps between the ducts, registers, and returns. This creates a prime location for the meeting of hot and cold temperatures, resulting in excessive moisture issues and providing a breeding ground for bacteria. Choosing a seemingly cheaper option during an estimate may end up costing you more in the long run.

Don’t be fooled by other companies; instead, choose Zhe Industries, LLC. We are not just an insulation company – we are licensed Builders with comprehensive knowledge of your home.

What to Expect During the Air Sealing Process?

To properly air seal your home, Zhe Industries applies a strategic approach designed to maximize your home’s energy efficiency.

Our professionals work diligently to minimize disruption, ensuring the air sealing process is swift and efficient. We understand the importance of your comfort and strive to complete the sealing with minimal impact on your daily routine.

This transformation not only enhances your immediate comfort but also contributes to your home’s long-term health and efficiency. Engaging in air sealing with Zhe Industries means a significant step towards a more sustainable, cost-effective, and comfortable living environment.

Zhe Industries went above and beyond to ensure our attic was done right! They were very flexible with timing and committed to providing great service. Even giving us a full breakdown or what they recommend for the future and advice on ways to make sure things are done correctly and safely. Our attic was a mess and is now saving us money and providing peace of mind knowing it was done properly and with our interests and needs in mind. 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND using Zhe Industries for your insulation needs!
Very thankful for Zhe Industries providing great quality and priced service. Thank you to the team for all the work that was done! Great job!
Very professional and easy to talk with in all parts of the process. You can tell it’s run and managed by the people you’re speaking with and not some big chain who has to go through 8 chains of command to make a decision. Quality results with small company feel. This was our first big purchase as new home owners and I have zero hesitation that it was a bad choice. I had some issues with my AC about a month after install and the AC guys had to replace a pipe under my house where all the insulation had been put. Zhe industries came back out to make sure everything was still as it should have been under the house!
Absolutely top notch company, people and service. Brian Zhe and the team did an exceptional job from start to finish on my entire attic insulation removal, sanitation, air sealing and new insulation install. I got multiple quotes from companies and Zhe had the most honest, no hidden cost, pricing. While they were not the cheapest, there were other companies that were WAY overpriced and expected me to counter offer their quote. You generally get quality or quantity, with Zhe Industries you will get both. I couldn’t be happier and would recommend them to anyone.
ZHE IS A COMPANY THAT STANDS BEHIND THEIR WORK AND PRODUCT!

I had a issue come up in my attic insulation a year after it was installed. I called the company and within a few business days the owner came out and a crew was there to fix it that same day at no cost. The issue turned out to be a recent service bulletin put out by the manufacturer.

Thank you Zhe Industries!
ZHE Industries was very professional from the moment I inquired about a service until the crew left after completion. They did above average work very efficiently and quickly. The owner is very knowledgeable and explains the details thoroughly. And the price was better than several competitors with above standard materials. I highly recommend this company for work.
Exceptional Service by Zhe Industries LLC

Dear Mr. Zhe,

My wife and I are writing to express our profound appreciation for the outstanding service provided by Zhe Industries LLC.

On February 21, 2025, you personally visited our home and conducted a thorough assessment of the insulation required to make it less drafty and more energy-efficient. By March 27, 2025, your installation team—comprising Brian E., Dave M., and Conner B.—exceeded all our expectations.

The team began by evacuating the old cellulose insulation, creating new access points in a hard-to-reach gable, and removing the outdated batting insulation. Once the attic was fully cleared, Brian E. meticulously inspected and sealed cracks around the registers and other unwanted openings. The team then disinfected the attic with RMR-141 RTU, Shockwave, and Recon Odor Counteractant. They followed this by installing radiant barriers where necessary and filling the entire attic with Owens Corning ProPink L77 Pink Fiberglass.

Their professionalism was evident throughout the process. The team arrived promptly at 8:00 a.m. on Thursday, completed the evacuation efficiently in under four hours, ensured a thorough cleanup, and returned the next day to finish installing the new fiberglass insulation. Their ability to communicate clearly and explain each step was particularly commendable.

Your team's dedication to excellence has left a lasting impression on us, and we would not hesitate to recommend Zhe Industries LLC for attic refreshes or new insulation projects.

We are thrilled with the results and confidently award you a 5/5 star rating for your exceptional service. Thank you for your commitment to excellence and for making this experience hassle-free.

Sincerely,

E. Rose
Completely reliable and professional contractor. On time, great communication, and completely thorough work. They are total experts in this field and explain the entire process. Thank you ZHE Industries.
Brain and his team has done both roof and attic work twice now and I couldn't ask for anything more. They were timely, professional in their work, top quality. Very knowledgeable, Brian will not try to "upsell" you unnecessarily, only what you need depending on your desired outcome. Super responsive, before, during and after projects.
I checked many insulation companies. Most of them just do this as a side when business is slow. No one offered all of the extras they did. When completed it was exactly as I was told it would be. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Call and speak to Brian you will not be disappointed!
