Photo Album: Attic Insulation Removal in Grand Bend, ON

Removing the current insulation in an attic can be a great move to help a home become more efficient. Once the old insulation is removed, we can air seal all pipe and cord penetration points. After that, new cellulose can be blown-in to the attic. Air sealing cannot happen with existing insulation on the attic deck, and so many homes are not air sealed properly! We have many cases where a home's air loss is decreased by 30% or more by going through this process. In this particular case, the insulation was damaged in a fire and needed to be removed. Advanced Basement Systems specializes in insulation removal- check it out!

Vacuum and Bins

This is a large job- most homes would not need more than one dumpster on site! Our vacuum and its large hose are at work removing the old, damaged attic insulation!

Removal Bag

This bag is what contains the insulation that is being removed. It's heavy duty and can hold hundreds of pounds of old insulation. Not every house can accommodate a large bin like this. In those cases, we leave the bag in the back of our large box truck- no problem!
