In the winter, your interior
heat leaves the house through
your attic.
In the summer, the exterior
heat invades your home
through your attic.
NCIS Energy has an attic
energy conservation service
just for you!
Reducing your energy needs
saves money, the environment,
and solar panels needed
to power your home.
Next time it snows... ( I know, what are you thinking - this is the South, it doesn't snow that much here - but if you could humor me for a moment :-) ...look at your neighbor's roofs and yours.
The roofs where the snow melts almost immediately - they don't have good insulation in their attic. The heat from their home is melting the snow almost as fast as the snow melts on the ground. How does your roof look after a snow?
Attic entrances are a large source of home energy loss.
The attic opening,
fold-down stair or doorway, and/or knee wall doors are usually
not properly sealed
against air infiltration,
causing a waste of energy in both hot, and cold weather.
Did you know that if you were to add up all of the heat/cooling
that you lose from exterior outlets and light switches...
Those losses would add up to the equivalent of leaving a window open all year long.
Touch your tank!
Insulating a water heater that is
warm to the touch
can cut standby heat losses by 25%-45%
and save you 7%-16% annually
on your water heating bill.*

When NASA wanted to go to the moon...
They had to find a material that would keep the astronauts protected from the extreme temperatures on the light side (260 degrees Fahrenheit)
and dark side (-280 degrees Fahrenheit) of the moon.
They accomplished this by using solar reflective material....
NCIS Energy will do the same for your attic.
Light Box Test:
This simple demonstration helps to show the effect that solar reflective material has when applied to the outside of the regular insulation.
Both sides have R-30 fiberglass insulation with 75 Watt lamps shining on them. The left side of the box has a single sheet of solar reflective material laid on top of the insulation. You can see how much radiant heat has been blocked by the thermometers on each side. The right side without the solar reflective material reads a temperature of over 120™F, while the side with solar reflective material only reads 88.7™F.
To produce a clear image, the lights were turned off just before the picture was taken.

Reviews:
My HVAC tech had NCIS Energy install a full wrap and seal system along with our new heat pump. We were amazed at the fact that our home was so comfortable and our utility bill was lower than he said it would be. Thanks NCIS Energy!

Our second story was always hot in the summer and cold in the winter. The grandkids used the upstairs and were always miserable up there. NCIS Energy installed their Attic Wrap and Seal and we could immediately tell the difference. Now it's going to be even harder to get the grandkids to move out. Thanks a lot!

We had the in-law suite wrapped and it wasn't until it was done, that we realized the windows were leaking hot air into the building too. We've fixed that and now my father-in-law is much more comfortable in his space.

I love my new windows and Attic Wrap and Seal. My utility bills are half of what they were.

After our solar was installed, we got an unexpected call from NCIS Energy. They were very professional, explained every step and what a difference it made to the comfort of our home. Thanks Mark for this wonderful surprise that complimented our solar project!
