When Steve Scherzer of Midland thought about that "home" should feel like, he imagine warmth, comfort, and family time in the living room -- not cold air sneaking in and forcing them to avoid the coziest place in the house.

Instead of relaxing, Steve and his family found themselves avoiding their living room because of the uncomfortablle drafts.

"I could feel cold drafts on the back of my neck coming through the walls," Steve said. "The house wasn't quite as comfortable as we wanted."

And the discomfort was't just limited to drafts, windows were constantly fogging up with condensation, and the chill made the whole space feel uninviting. Even sitting near the window was unbearable.

"Before we called RetroFoam even the window behind me was too cod to even sit in my living room," Steve explained.

Choosing Comfort with RetroFoam of Michigan

Steve knew something had to change.

That's when he reached out to RetroFoam of Michigan -- a company known for helping homeowners tackle the exact kinds of issues he was experiencing.

"When I called RetroFoam I really appreciated the fact that they wanted to solve my problem, not just sell me a product," Steve said.

The solution? Injection foam insulation installed in the exterior walls of the home. This created an air seal that stopped drafts and has helped maintain a consistent indoor temperature, even in the winter.

After the installation, the impact was immediate.

A Noticeable Difference in Home Comfort

With the foam insulation in place, the Scherzer family start to enjoy their home the way it was meant to be enjoyed -- draft-free and cozy.

"I would recommend RetroFoam to anyone experiencing cold drafts, condensation on your windows, and not feeling comfortable in your house," Steve said. "They'll help you solve your problem."
