Replacing your insulation isn't just an environmental necessity—it's crucial for health reasons too. Over time, insulation can accumulate dust, dirt, debris, and even vermin waste and nests. Despite seemingly small gaps in the roof cavity, these hazards can infiltrate your home, spreading contaminants through vents, light fixtures, ducts, and more.
This becomes a concern for those with asthma or dust allergies, as the roof's dust buildup poses a significant health risk. Removing this avoidable trigger can vastly improve air quality, easing breathing and reducing irritation.
Moreover, the type of insulation matters for health. Modern materials have fewer allergy triggers and, in some cases, are entirely allergy-free, offering a healthier environment for occupants
Retaining old insulation poses multiple risks, not to mention its decreasing effectiveness in maintaining your home's insulation levels as it ages. If you suspect your older home still contains outdated insulation, a thorough check and following these tips will set you on the path to an energy-efficient and healthier home in no time!
After completely removing existing insulation from your roof space, installing new insulation can significantly slash average heating and cooling expenses by approximately 30%. This proactive step alleviates the impact of escalating energy prices. Moreover, the initial investment in insulation installation typically pays for itself within 3-5 years due to reduced energy bills. As energy costs continue to rise, the payback period only improves, making it a smart long-term investment.
We utilize cutting-edge high-grade industrial equipment tailored for insulation and dust removal. Our specialized machines are engineered with the most powerful suction capability, specifically designed to efficiently remove stubborn and unwanted roof insulation.
he most efficient method for removing old cellulose insulation from ceiling spaces involves our large-diameter 5-inch duct hose connected to our specialized machine. This setup swiftly and effectively eliminates shredded cellulose insulation, significantly outpacing regular vacuum cleaning. Typically, for a 3 to 4 bedroom house, this process takes between 2 to 4 hours.
To ensure a healthier environment, it’s crucial to remove your old insulation along with any associated droppings, as these can retain toxins in your roof. By replacing the old insulation with new material, you’ll eliminate rodent infestation and mold while enhancing your home’s energy efficiency and overall air quality.
When assessing the need for removing old loose fill insulation, the cost will vary depending on factors such as the current insulation depth, roof size in square meters, accessibility, and any rodent infestation. The overall cost will be determined by the dimensions of your roof.
To remove loose fill or blown-in insulation, we employ our state-of-the-art extraction machine, which operates through a 5-inch hose, filling gallon bags with the removed insulation. A standard 150m² home generally requires approximately 6-10 extraction bags. However, for fiberglass batt removal, it’s a manual process, involving the removal of each batt individually, followed by vacuuming to clear any remaining dust.
As Victoria’s premier insulation removal company, we boast extensive industry experience and cutting-edge machinery operated by skilled professionals. Our prices are unmatched, and we’re committed to beating any written quotes you bring our way!
