Enhance Comfort with Radiant Barriers

Radiant barriers are an excellent addition to attics, helping to improve energy efficiency and comfort within homes. Spaceage Radiant Barrier and Reflectix Insulation Radiant Barrier are two popular double bubble options we use to achieve optimal results. These barriers work by reflecting radiant heat away from the attic, which can significantly reduce cooling costs in the summer and maintain warmth during the winter.

Insulation FAQ

What type of insulation is best?

Every insulation job has its own unique set of requirements, and every homeowner has their own budget guidelines.

Whether you are building a new home or remodeling an existing home, there are many benefits of home insulation and air sealing. Averaged across the U.S., weatherization measures such as air sealing and increasing the quality and thickness of attic insulation can reliably reduce energy usage by 12–18%*. Additional benefits of adding home insulation can include:

  • Increased, more consistent interior comfort all year long
  • Reduced energy usage
  • Lower heating and cooling costs
  • Less wear and tear on HVAC equipment
  • Reduced noise transmission for a quieter space
  • Improved air quality
  • Reduced moisture intrusion
  • Less overall environmental impact

R-Value stands for resistance. Insulation is measured by its resistance to heat flow and temperature conduction. The higher the R-Value number the greater insulation can resist temperature conduction making a home much easier to heat or cool. 

your r-value for your home

Insulation’s R-values can range from R-10 through R-60. In Virginia, the current building code for insulation is R-49 for attics, R-19 for exterior-facing walls, and R-30 for crawlspace floor joists. It is highly recommended that your home be insulated to meet these codes.

Properly insulating your home to Virginia code not only increases its resale value but also saves you money on energy costs. 

Your attic space is one of the most essential parts of your home. Most old insulation is wet, moldy, or infested with pests. Your house’s overall wellness depends mainly on the condition of your attic – so why conceal an issue?

DON’T BLOW OVER!! Let Zhe Industries, LLC remove contaminated insulation with our heavy-duty insulation removal vacuums.  Our system is fully enclosed and safely carries the insulation from your attic to an outside filtered vacuum bag using industrial-size vacuum hoses. 

Having your old insulation vacuumed out professionally is your first line of defense against rodents, bacterial growth, and moisture issues. Don’t be fooled by the other guys selling you on blowing over/topping off your insulation.  Adding new insulation over old creates a favorable condition; rodents and bacteria thrive on greater reducing efficiency and shelf-life of new insulation.

We use the industry’s largest & most advanced insulation vacuum systems available. Our vacuums use 8-inch hoses capable of removing sizes 24in rolled/batt & blown insulation, which means no contaminated insulation is carried through your home. All Insulation is brought safely into an industrial vacuum bag right into a Z Industries-owned dumper.  Read more about this process.

I had Zhe Industries replace the insulation in my attic and do air sealing. They also pointed out a couple problems, like bathroom fans that weren’t vented correctly, and handled those repairs too. Just being able to go into my attic and not feel like I'm itching has made this all worth it. The crew was professional and respectful, and they explained what they were doing as they went which I appreciated. They’re easy enough to work with and stand behind their work. I had them do my parents’ house first and then mine, and both times the results came out solid. Highly recommend, Brian and his crew know what they're doing.
I don't even know where to start, other than saying, I HIGHLY recommend Zhe Industries! Extremely professional, on time, great communication, respectful and the list goes on. The process from beginning to end was a joy. Even the little details like being asked if they can park in our driveway, to no smoking on the job to avoid smells, to laying down tarp on all surfaces they will be walking on, went such a long way. We recommend this company to anyone looking for services. The finished job is also amazing. It is currently hot and sunny outside and our upstairs AC is actually keeping up with the set temperature and feels great! It used to never keep up, run non-stop, and feel hot/humid on the second floor. We are thrilled and extremely happy. Thank you Zhe industries to everything!
These guys crushed it. Top of the line work for an attic in terrible shape!
My home was built in 1988 when little attention was given to attic insulation and sealing. My power bill was over $700 for a 3200 sqft home. I had to do something. Brian with Zhe Industries came out and presented a complete solution at an excellent price that has now more than doubled the R-value of my attic and cleaned it up improving the air quality within my home. He had a very polite and professional 5 person crew come out for two days. They vacuummed out all of the old insulation and nasty stuff that attics tend to accumulate over the years, sealed all of the electrical and HVAC penetrations in the framing and drywall, replaced the attic vent fan, checked the HVAC duct system for leaks with a thermal camera and sealed where needed, replaced the attic decking with one that has a thermal barrier applied, sprayed sanitizer and odor eliminator in the entire space, installed baffles along the attic platform so that the insulation can be full height up to the platform, installed baffles for air flow at my eve vents, and then blew all new insulation.There was an amazing amount of work done for the price and time it took. It was permitted, inspected, and passed the first time by the city of Virginia Beach and warrantied by Owens Corning for 80 years. The whole process was very easy and professional. I would highly recommend Zhe Industries!
From the time we first reached out to Zhe Industries for a quote we felt like we were in good hands. Every member of the company we worked with was kind, friendly and knowledgeable. The price was very fair for the services we were quoted, and they were open and transparent throughout the process. But most importantly, they were able to work with us when we were faced with some unforeseen circumstances. I would recommend this company and use them again in the future based on the quality of service for the price we would have received and there outstanding customer service!
They did an amazing job with our attic. The price was very fair, and they worked incredibly fast. I’m very lucky to have found this team.
I did my research and really took my time with selecting a company for my insulation. I had 4 estimates, and while they were not the cheapest, they were no where near the most expensive. After talking with my sales representative I quickly had my deduction made before I even received the estimate. The total package that was offered was far superior to the other 3 companies. On installed day, the team showed up on time, and were very professional. They completed my project in one day and met all my expectations. I highly recommend them, and honestly even if they wind up being slightly more expensive on your project, it’s for a reason and you get what you pay for. I will be referring them to all, and I am extremely happy with the services they provided me.
They did an excellent job of installing the insulation in my home. They were prompt and professional throughout the entire process.
They also moved items out of my attic and put back in without any damage. I normally set my thermostat at 71-72 and I feel comfortable everyone else is freezing. After the insulation I have to set the thermostat at 73/74 because I’m freezing with the lower temperature. Also my attic is normally very hot and unbearable in the summer, but now it’s so much cooler and doesn’t feel like a sauna.
I would recommend this company.
Brian and the entire Zhe Indistries company was great. Brian is very honest and tells you what is needed and what isn't needed. I am a customer for life and highly recommend Zhe Industries and especially Brian.
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!
