Why You Need A Professional To Install Your Insulation On A New Build
Having insulation professionally installed in a new build by contractors like Insulation Guru Brisbane provides numerous benefits. These include increased comfort, superior energy efficiency, and substantial long-term savings. A professional installer is well-versed in selecting the best materials and products for your home’s unique design, promoting energy conservation and reducing utility bills.
In Brisbane and across Australia, the building code sets forth specific requirements for insulation. As per the Australian Building Codes Board (ABCB), wall insulation must meet R2 standards, while roof insulation should comply with R4 standards1. These standards ensure optimal thermal performance to minimise the energy required for heating or cooling a building.
For insulation companies in Australia, holding the correct certification is crucial. This includes adherence to the Australian Insulation Standards (AS/NZS 4859.1:2018), which provide guidelines for the installation of bulk insulation to achieve building compliance2.
Professionally installed insulation also offers additional advantages such as preventing damage to your home and deterring pests. Safety is paramount, and professional installation ensures that insulation is installed correctly the first time, mitigating any potential risks3.
Choosing a professional insulation contractor like Insulation Guru Brisbane guarantees quality service aligned with all Australian building codes and standards, delivering a comfortable and energy-efficient home.
