Everyone wants their home to be cool in summer and warm in winter, which is why many Auckland homeowners and landlords are having insulation installed in their properties. Even though there is a growing trend amongst New Zealanders to do-it-themselves, many are choosing to hire insulation professionals to complete the work for them.
Finding a professional insulation installer you can trust can be challenging. That’s when using Builderscrack to find one who has the right experience and skills is a great decision.
How To Pick An Auckland Insulation Installer
Profession insulation installers are required to meet the New Zealand standard (NZS 4246:2006 Installing Insulation in Residential Buildings) which maps out exactly how each type of insulation on the market needs to be installed within a residential property. This includes things such as placement near light fittings, how thick the insulation must be and which type is suitable for walls, underfloor or in ceilings.
As well as meeting the required national standard, insulation professionals have the opportunity to belong to the Insulation Association of New Zealand (IAONZ) if they successfully complete the training in underfloor and ceiling insulation offered by IOANZ. By hiring an insulation specialist within Auckland who is a current member, you can be assured that they will be able to complete the job safely and correctly to the national benchmark.
Using The Right Type Of Insulation For Your Home
Although Auckland does not have the freezing weather seen down south in winter, it can still get quite chilly. Then in summer we wish that our houses were a lot cooler when the sun pops out! Having the right type of insulation installed in the right places within your home will help keep it warmer in winter and cooler in summer, making it vital both you and your installer pick the right insulation type for the right place.
