Do You Need Insulation Removed?

You may have dirty attic insulation, as a result of pests like rodents and birds or even from roof leaks. Understandably, this can lead to an unhealthy home and calls for professional insulation removal.

Having your insulation professionally removed will maximize your safety—insulation removal is not a good do–it–yourself project—and will help improve the energy efficiency of your home when you replace it with something more suitable for your household. Whether you’re looking to replace old attic insulation, or blown–in insulation, we are the team for the job.

Attic Insulation

Simply put, attic insulation is necessary for helping your home to better retain heat and be more energy efficient overall. As we mentioned above, there’s also a common misconception  that insulation is only meant for wintertime.

But just as properly installed attic insulation will help your home retain heat, it also helps to keep heat out. Trust the Ashburn, VA pros here at AllTech Services, Inc. for your attic insulation installation. Or, if you have old and degrading attic insulation, we can conduct safe and effective insulation removal.

Blown–In Insulation

Perhaps the most commonly known type of insulation is batt or roll insulation. It’s been around for ages, and simply rolls out into your attic or behind your drywall. But when you need insulation replaced in an older home rather than right when your home is being constructed, it’s not always the most convenient type of insulation.

That’s where blown–in insulation comes in. This is comprised of small pieces of recycled materials, blown into your household in the areas that need it through a small cavity drilled into an outside wall. Blown–in insulation is great for retro–fitting older homes and reaching nooks and crannies you can’t get to otherwise.

Radiant Barriers

When you’re looking for a way to cool your home in Ashburn, VA more effectively during the summer, radiant barriers make a great investment. They are installed in the attic and use a reflective material to refract radiant heat away from your home, preventing heat absorption and allowing your air conditioner to do its job more efficiently.

Reducing strain on your cooling system decreases the amount of energy needed to cool your home, prevents your AC system from breaking down too soon, and provides optimal energy efficiency throughout your home. Contact us today to learn more about radiant barriers!
