Residential attic insulation typically performs well for about 15 to 20 years. Afterwards insulation becomes increasingly ineffective causing heat to escape within the home. At this point it’s typically a good idea to upgrade insulation. But when it comes time to replace the insulation, a professional should perform the work. For insulation removal in Toronto, EcoComfort offers a comprehensive approach with high-quality products and affordable pricing.
It’s true that some homeowners may opt for a DIY approach when it comes to insulation removal. It may potentially be cost-saving, and it may look like easy work – but the opposite is often true. Attic insulation removal can be arduous, difficult, and even hazardous. It’s best left to a professional.
With insulation removal, a professional approach ensures that everything is done properly and safely. Professionals can efficiently and thoroughly diagnose problem areas in the attic and offer viable remedies for upgrades and retrofits. When heating and cooling bills are higher than they should be, it's a sign that energy efficiency is lacking and insulation upgrades are necessary. With a professional on hand, replacement products and installation options can be recommended. The aim, of course, is to provide optimum energy efficiency.
Before any insulation work begins, it’s wise to have an expert attic inspection. This will allow for an in-depth assessment of insulation deficiencies and an evaluation of problem areas. For example, there may be residual asbestos deposits present. Or, there may be mould growing in various areas of the attic. Finally, there could be pockets of water damage that threaten the attic and roof structure. The fact is, professionals know exactly what to inspect in terms of deficiencies, problems, and dangers.
After an inspection, various deficiencies will be identified that point to poor insulation performance. At some point, the identified deficiencies will point to the need for the removal and replacement of the existing insulation. In addition to poorly performing insulation, various repairs and retrofits may be required throughout the attic and roof cavity. These might include fixing structural defects, improving airtightness, and even installing appropriate ventilation. It’s all designed to maximize energy efficiency.
