“More than a decade ago, my partner and I noticed that our baby’s room was very cold and had drafts coming from the recessed lights,” said Thermahood Founder and Director, Vincent Boden.
The solution? Boden drew upon his expertise in mechanical engineering and construction to develop a flame-retardant, self-extinguishing hood that safely and completely capped off the air-leakage and blocked drafts. He placed them on the back side of the recessed lights (in the attic), and it exceeded all expectations.
“The baby’s room stayed warm all winter, cool in the summer, our energy bill decreased significantly, and Thermahood was born,” added Boden.
An additional bonus, Thermahood also creates an effective moisture barrier, reducing the risk of condensation and problems like mold, timber rot, and roof damage. Thermahood also improves home air quality by reducing air flow, and acts as a sound and dust barrier, keeping rooms free of insects and unwelcome pests.
The seemingly simple innovation provides an equally simple installation process that meets building regulations. Thermahood will soon be available to American consumers looking for DIY, cost-cutting ways to enjoy comfortable temperatures at home; a 10-pack costs approximately $100.
“High hats and recessed lighting add a great deal to our homes including ambience and character but they can also reduce the effectiveness of an attic’s insulation by up to 30%,” said Boden. “By reinforcing where they are vulnerable, we are proud to help consumers save a significant amount of money while improving comfort in their home.”
