Meet The Founder
Dennis Froese, Founder of Elite Airtight Envelopes
Starting as an insulation installer in the lower mainland, I have over 30 years experience in Edmonton and Vancouver installing thermal insulation, vapour control layers, and interior air-barriers.
As the insulation industry evolved to include exterior applications, I expanded my expertise to encompass the installation of these exterior insulations, along with the underlying exterior water-resistive membranes and air-barriers.
I believe that our building envelope services in the Vancouver area are unmatched. Our team possesses an unwavering commitment to meticulous attention to detail and consistently delivers exemplary workmanship.
What sets us apart is our smaller size, which allows us to maintain a high level of responsiveness. We are deeply passionate about our work, enabling us to promptly answer and address all calls and inquiries. It brings me great pride to prioritize quick and efficient communication with our valued clients.
The EBE Insulation Process
1. Meticulous Insulation Installation
When it comes to insulation installation, our team takes care to ensure that your space is effectively insulated. We go above and beyond to guarantee that the insulation fulfills its purpose.
- We take great care to fill the entire wall, ceiling, or floor cavity during the insulation installation process
- Our skilled technicians cut or shape the insulation around obstructions such as wires, boxes, or pipes to prevent compression and maintain the insulation’s effectiveness
- By avoiding compression, we ensure that the insulation’s R-value is not reduced by up to 20%
By avoiding this issue, we help you save on energy costs required to heat or cool your space.
2. Superior Air-Tightness & Sealant Application
One of our core commitments is to ensure that air-tightness targets are met on every project we undertake.
We believe a well-insulated and properly sealed building envelope is essential for energy efficiency, comfort, and long-term durability.
