Pure Eco serves Pasadena homeowners with a full range of insulation and attic services. We understand the construction characteristics of older Pasadena homes and have the experience to work in them efficiently without disrupting the architectural character that makes them valuable.
Pasadena is one of the oldest established cities in the San Gabriel Valley, and that history shows in the housing. The city is home to an extraordinary concentration of early 20th-century architecture, including Craftsman bungalows, Spanish Colonial Revival homes, and mid-century properties throughout Hastings Ranch and Altadena-adjacent streets. Beautiful as they are, homes built in that era were constructed with little to no insulation by modern standards.
Whether you’re in a Hastings Ranch mid-century or a classic Craftsman bungalow, contact Pure Eco today to see how our specialized attic services can lower your energy bills.

Pasadena’s climate is among the most thermally demanding in the greater LA area. The city sits in the San Gabriel Valley foothills, which means it captures heat that the coastal cities shed. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 100 degrees, and the Santa Ana wind events that arrive in fall and winter bring dry, hot air that further stresses building envelopes.
Older housing compounds the problem. Craftsman-era homes were built with minimal ceiling insulation, balloon-framed walls that create continuous air pathways from crawl space to attic, and wood-framed floor systems over vented crawl spaces that are vulnerable to moisture and pest infiltration. Even homes that had insulation added during the energy crisis of the 1970s are now running on 50-year-old material that has settled significantly below its original performance level. Pasadena also sits in wildfire smoke country, making air sealing as important as insulation for keeping outdoor particulates out of the living space.

Yes. The work we do is entirely within the attic and crawl space, which are not visible areas of the home. Blown-in insulation is installed through the attic hatch or via small access holes that are patched and finished. None of the work affects the home’s exterior or interior finished surfaces.
California Title 24 currently recommends R-38 to R-60 for attic insulation, depending on the climate zone. Pasadena falls in a zone where R-49 is the typical target for new construction. Most older Pasadena homes are running well below that, often in the R-11 to R-19 range if any insulation exists at all.
Pasadena Water and Power offers energy efficiency rebates for qualifying insulation upgrades. The amounts and requirements change periodically, so we recommend checking with PWP directly or asking us during your estimate.
Common signs that your crawlspace needs attention include musty odors inside the home, cold floors in winter, evidence of pest activity, or visible moisture or standing water under the house. We include a crawl space inspection in our estimate at no additional charge.
