Does Old Insulation Have to Be Removed?
|
Although we can sometimes add new insulation over the old attic, crawl space, or wall insulation, it isn’t always the best thing to do. The insulation contractors at Columbus Spray Foam Insulation know when to leave old insulation in place and when it’s better to remove it. Keep in mind that newer insulations are also much more effective than insulation from 15 or 20 years ago, so replacing all of it might be best.
When we inspect old insulation in your Columbus, Georgia home, we can tell you what should be removed and replaced. If we find damp or stained insulation, insulation removal is a must to improve the air quality in your Columbus, Georgia home. If we suspect leaks, we try to find them and suggest taking steps to prevent future leaks. Old insulation collapses and leaves gaps that trap moisture, mold, and dirt, making insulation removal from your Columbia, GA house advisable. Break down happens with many materials but especially with cellulose or fiberglass insulation. As it collapses, it insulates less and less. If your house was built before 1990, we might find asbestos. We look for lightweight, grainy, loose insulation with shiny flecks. Removing asbestos requires trained remediation technicians. |

Our insulation contractors know when and how to install new insulation over old. We know, for example, never to place faced (insulation with a moisture barrier) over old insulation. Moisture will be trapped in the old insulation, and you will end up with mold and insulation breakdown.
As Insulation professionals, we would never tack down or flatten the new insulation into the floor or roof joists. Rolled or batt fiberglass insulation should always be installed perpendicular to the joists. You can rely on Columbus Spray Foam Insulation professionals to follow industry recommendations and standards. |
