Air Seal Your Home

Your attic space is one of the most important parts of your home. Proper ventilation in your attic helps address excess heat and moisture that can cause serious damage to your home.

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.

Attic Venting

Importance of Proper Attic Ventilation?

The attic space in your home is very important. Proper ventilation is imperative to combat the build-up of excessive heat and moisture, which can inflict serious harm on your property. The intense heat can cause deformation and premature aging of the roof sheathing and shingles, causing leaks earlier than anticipated. Neglecting adequate insulation on the attic floor would allow this heat to infiltrate the finished living areas, posing challenges and increasing expenses for maintaining a cozy living environment.

What to do about a Poorly Ventilated Attic?

Zhe Industries, LLC isn’t just an insulation contractor. We are a certified roofing contractor who can address whether there’s enough ventilation and add new venting as needed. We can install soffit vents, soffit baffles, gabble vents, ridge venting, and power attic or solar roof vents.

  They say a picture is worth a thousand words. First picture was from April with an outdoor temp of about 89F and the second picture was from June 23rd with an outdoor temp of about 101F. Ceiling measured 30c/86f in the first picture and 19.3c/68f in the second picture. It's definitely working to keep our conditioned air inside our home and the hot air in the attic!
We had Zhe Industries insulate and air seal our attic around mid June and it has been unbelievable how good of an investment this was. I'm not certain we'll see much in savings this year as our AC pretty much runs full stop from morning until later in the evening but it is much more comfortable.
Another huge added bonus for us was the noise deadening. Since we had so little insulation or none in our attic in the first place it basically acted like a guitar and we could hear every noise from outside. We also live under the Oceana flight path so there's tons of jets flying throughout the week at all hours. Since we now have much more insulation and coverage than before outside noise has probably dropped by at least 60 to 70 percent. Even the jets don't over power indoor conversations and we can barely hear when people are mowing their lawns.
The crew were polite and very professional. It took about half a day to remove the old insulation and install the baffles and then a short hour or so for them to blow in the new insulation.
Overall very satisfied and would highly recommend their services.

  I interviewed 8 Roofing companies.  Brian immediately stood out from the crowd for his  professionalism. His pricing was very competitive. It was a big project for me so I was a little anxious going into the process, but he reassured me. Everything was gonna be perfect and he was right. They got the roof done and a day and we’re very thorough with all the cleanup. I have lots of areas where there are flowers Pots, including swimming pool. Their cleanup was exceptional. I had an area on my roof that required some flat roofing expertise, and he was able to provide the best solution with the very best warranty. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who’s looking for a top class a contractor who knows what he’s doing prices it fairly and gets the job done quickly.

  I needed a roof replacement and new insulation for my new home. I chose Zhe industries to do the job, and my roof and attic look brand new. Most notably, the new insulation keeps my home at the desired temperature for much longer and the new roof now keeps the weather out. I needed it done right the first time up and Zhe Industries delivered Top-notch service and professionalism while choosing the best quality materials to do the job. They were fair with pricing and as a bonus, they offered a military discount for my service.

The team's efficiency and effectiveness were remarkable, completing insulation removal, sanitization, air sealing, fan replacement, and new insulation in under 12 hours. Brian ensured quality throughout and my home now feels brand new. Highly recommend Zhe Industries, LLC for their professionalism and excellent work.

  I purchased my home in Acredale in March of 2023. It needed a number of repairs and upgrades. By the Fall, I noticed that the insolation in the attic was not doing the job and was in really poor condition. I had already spent far more than I expected for the other repairs and was thinking about just filling in the lean areas myself. I noticed a smell in the attic and found rodent droppings. I did some research and decided that the attic was more of a priority than other projects I planned. I got some estimates but did not feel confident in what these salesmen were saying. I looked one last time and found Zhe. I liked that they seem to have a direct connection to the manufacturer of the material they use. Brian came to give the estimate. He answered my questions in detail and outlined exactly what was needed to do the job correctly and to code. He and his assistant, Dave, came and finished when they said they would. They kept the house neat as they worked and had no problem answering any additional questions and allowing me to see the different stages of the job along the way. Both of them were friendly and hard-working professionals. Brian was also very cooperative in the way the paperwork was handled. The work they did came out very well. They sanitized and sealed the whole attic, eliminating the leaks and smell. They made sure the airflow is correct for proper ventilation and raised the “R value” above the current code requirements. The other companies offered less for more than I paid. My house is warmer, quieter, and that funky smell is gone. I have already passed Zhe’s contact info to a close friend.

  Fall of 2023 I solicited quotes from a few insulation contractors and found Zhe Industries had the most efficient and clear communication, as well as reasonable pricing, so we hired them. The work was done on the days agreed upon, cleanup afterwards was good, everything done as discussed. I would recommend. (The insulation in our 1960s ranch was very insufficient before this project, I am pleased to see how much our gas usage has gone down these cold months compared to last year.)
