Your attic plays a critical role in regulating temperature and energy efficiency in your home. But what many Barrie homeowners don’t realize is that old or damaged insulation could be the reason their home feels uncomfortable—no matter how much they adjust the thermostat. If your insulation is outdated or compromised, achieving maximum comfort might actually start with removing it. At Ainger Insulation, we specialize in expert attic insulation removal and blown-in insulation installation to restore comfort and efficiency to your Barrie home.
Why You Might Need to Remove Old Attic Insulation
Over time, attic insulation can deteriorate due to age, moisture damage, pest infestations, or even past fire or smoke exposure. Older insulation materials, like vermiculite, may also pose health risks due to asbestos contamination. Even if your insulation appears intact, it may no longer meet modern efficiency standards.
Here are a few signs your insulation may need to be removed:
- Uneven indoor temperatures throughout your home
- Persistent drafts or cold spots
- A musty smell or signs of mould in the attic
- High heating and cooling bills
- Evidence of rodent or insect activity
If any of these apply, it’s time for a professional evaluation from Ainger Insulation—your trusted experts in attic insulation Barrie.
