Spray Foam Insulation in Fort Oglethorpe, GA

Fort Oglethorpe's right over the Georgia line from us — out past the Chickamauga Battlefield, a short hop down from Chattanooga. It's a suburban town with a real mix: older places near the old fort and battlefield, and newer subdivisions out along Battlefield Parkway. Whichever yours is, if it's expensive to keep comfortable, the cause is almost always air leaking where you can't see it.

WHERE THE AIR ESCAPES

Why Fort Oglethorpe homes need spray foam

Most Fort Oglethorpe homeowners blame the AC or the windows, but the real leak is usually up in the attic and down in the crawl space, where air moves freely in and out all day. Fiberglass slows heat a little and stops air not at all. Spray foam seals those spots airtight, so the conditioned air you're paying for actually stays in the house. That's the move that finally settles a stubborn power bill.

BY THE FORT OR ON THE PARKWAY

Older homes and newer builds — we handle both

You've got two kinds of homes around Fort O: the older ones near the fort and battlefield, and the newer builds out the Battlefield Parkway corridor. The older homes usually need air sealing, attic, and crawl space work. The newer ones look sealed and aren't, thanks to builder-minimum insulation. We do both, starting with a free look at where yours is leaking.

By applying spray foam directly to the underside of the roof deck, it now insulates the attic space from the extreme heat that once radiated thorough the hot shingles sheathing and roof. The severe temperatures no longer exist in the attic. In short, the attic now becomes a passively "conditioned" space of the house that is just as comfortable as any other room in the home.

Benefits

A roof system insulated with Foametix spray foam reduces energy several ways. Energy loss from ducts located in the attic is essentially eliminated. The top of the building is much tighter resulting in less infiltration and exfiltration, so excess moisture isn't pulled into the attic. Infiltration through the ceiling is also reduced. In addition, the attic temperature is remarkably lower, which further reduces energy loads.

Energy Savings

  • How close is Fort Oglethorpe for you?

    Very — just over the line, one of our closest GA areas.

  • My home's newer — does it need this?

    Often yes. Newer builds meet code but still leak; a quick inspection shows how much.
