This homeowner had two attics in her home. Neither of them were air sealed or properly insulated. The one pictured above had been constructed with the intention of using it as a storage area, but the owner wasn't really getting much use out of it. Instead, they had a big open space that was wasting a lot of energy and causing a lot of discomfort throughout the house.
We went through and air sealed both attic areas (using mainly caulk and polysio foam board) to stop air from leaking in and out of the house. We then blew in closed cell cellulose insulation (bringing both attic up to 14" -- the recommended standard for our climate zone). This home has become much more comfortable since CHS came out.
