Tour a typical house up-grade

Almost every day, Air Krete crews are updating "middle-aged" homes, built in the years when Canada's building codes did not require quality insulation in the outer walls.

Here's a quick photo tour of an upgrade to a home built in the mid-60s in Toronto's west end.

• Improved comfort, summer and winter
• No need to remove drywall
• Lower energy bills
• No odors, easy cleanup, little disruption

Here's how an  Air Krete crew does a retro-fit on a home quickly and efficiently.
The Air Krete installation trailer is a self-contained command post.	To start, small holes are drilled into interior and exterior walls. There's no need to remove drywall.
Compressors fill the mixture with regular air--not other gases are used. High pressure pumps propel the Air Krete mixture through the hoses to where it's needed.
Air Krete is pumped, in carefully measured "pulses," to fill the space between studs.	Precision controls ensure consistent amounts of Air Krete are placed in cavities to be insulated.
Outside, small holes in the exterior walls allow Air Krete to insulate around floors, a major heat loss in winter and cool air loss in summer.
