QII requirement vs NAIMA’s insulation installation guidelines for insulation contractors

.

Should you pay more for a quality insulation job?    Some insulation contractors think that you should.

.

California’s Title-24 energy code includes a compliance credit for hiring a third-party HERS rater to verify that the insulation was installed per the QII Quality Installation of Insulation guidelines which ensures that the building envelope is truly insulated and sealed correctly.  f you have an insulation contractor who is resisting the idea of the Title-24 HERS QII Quality Installation of Insulation requirements and charging more for an insulation installation that meets the QII protocols this document from the insulation contractor’s own industry trade association, NAIMA, will provide some helpful leverage.

.

NAIMA, The National Association of Insulation Manufacturers of America’s own industry guidelines for proper installation of insulation are virtually identical to California’s HERS QII checklist.

Why should you pay more for a quality insulation job that is performed according the NAIMA’s own guidelines for all insulation contractors?
