Insulation FAQ
What does R-Value Mean in Insulation?
R-Value stands for resistance. Insulation is measured by its resistance to heat flow and temperature conduction. The higher the R-Value number the greater insulation can resist temperature conduction making a home much easier to heat or cool.
What R-value is right for me?
Insulation’s R-values can range from R-10 through R-60. In Virginia, the current building code for insulation is R-49 for attics, R-19 for exterior-facing walls, and R-30 for crawlspace floor joists. It is highly recommended that your home be insulated to meet these codes.
Properly insulating your home to Virginia code not only increases its resale value but also saves you money on energy costs.
Why Remove Insulation?
Your attic space is one of the most essential parts of your home. Most old insulation is wet, moldy, or infested with pests. Your house’s overall wellness depends mainly on the condition of your attic – so why conceal an issue?
DON’T BLOW OVER!! Let Zhe Industries, LLC remove contaminated insulation with our heavy-duty insulation removal vacuums. Our system is fully enclosed and safely carries the insulation from your attic to an outside filtered vacuum bag using industrial-size vacuum hoses.
Why Vacuum out Insulation?
Having your old insulation vacuumed out professionally is your first line of defense against rodents, bacterial growth, and moisture issues. Don’t be fooled by the other guys selling you on blowing over/topping off your insulation. Adding new insulation over old creates a favorable condition; rodents and bacteria thrive on greater reducing efficiency and shelf-life of new insulation.
How Insulation is Removed?
We use the industry’s largest & most advanced insulation vacuum systems available. Our vacuums use 8-inch hoses capable of removing sizes 24in rolled/batt & blown insulation, which means no contaminated insulation is carried through your home. All Insulation is brought safely into an industrial vacuum bag right into a Zhe Industries-owned dumper. Read more about this process.
What's Truly Under Your Insulation?
This is an image from our industrial vacuum clean out trap. There are several rodent carcasses & feces which are a breeding ground for deadly bacteria that will impact the health of your home. Installing home insulation over old is adding more fuel to the fire.
ExcellentBased on 79 reviewsJon & Michelle PorterMarch 25, 2024I recently had attic work done by Zhe Industries, LLC and had a fantastic experience. Brian, the owner, provided a thorough and free inspection, showing kindness and punctuality throughout. He and his team were quick to understand my concerns, answer questions, and accommodate my schedule. They were also the most affordable option among quotes I received. The team's efficiency and effectiveness were remarkable, completing insulation removal, sanitization, air sealing, fan replacement, and new insulation in under 12 hours. Brian ensured quality throughout and my home now feels brand new. Highly recommend Zhe Industries, LLC for their professionalism and excellent work.Todd FanceMarch 3, 2024Top-notch service and very professional. My attic looks new, and most notably, the new insulation keeps my home at proper temperature for longer.Breanna CarpenterFebruary 24, 202410/10 would recommend Brian and his team. I received a few insulation quotes and I wasn’t sold on anyone until I talked to Brian. My attic is now sanitized, sealed and properly insulated. He was also kind enough to screen the gable vents. The crew was on time and professional. Thanks Zhe!Rich FamigliettiFebruary 16, 2024I purchased my home in Acredale in March of 2023. It needed a number of repairs and upgrades. By the Fall, I noticed that the insolation in the attic was not doing the job and was in really poor condition. I had already spent far more than I expected for the other repairs and was thinking about just filling in the lean areas myself. I noticed a smell in the attic and found rodent droppings. I did some research and decided that the attic was more of a priority than other projects I planned. I got some estimates but did not feel confident in what these salesmen were saying. I looked one last time and found Zhe. I liked that they seem to have a direct connection to the manufacturer of the material they use. Brian came to give the estimate. He answered my questions in detail and outlined exactly what was needed to do the job correctly and to code. He and his assistant, Dave, came and finished when they said they would. They kept the house neat as they worked and had no problem answering any additional questions and allowing me to see the different stages of the job along the way. Both of them were friendly and hard-working professionals. Brian was also very cooperative in the way the paperwork was handled. The work they did came out very well. They sanitized and sealed the whole attic, eliminating the leaks and smell. They made sure the airflow is correct for proper ventilation and raised the “R value” above the current code requirements. The other companies offered less for more than I paid. My house is warmer, quieter, and that funky smell is gone. I have already passed Zhe’s contact info to a close friend.Nonie SFebruary 10, 2024Zhe Industries was very professional, prompt and clean. They were on time for the removal of my insulation. They thoroughly sanitized my attic and blew in new insulation. I highly recommend their services.Clairette CampbellFebruary 1, 2024Fall of 2023 I solicited quotes from a few insulation contractors and found Zhe Industries had the most efficient and clear communication, as well as reasonable pricing, so we hired them. The work was done on the days agreed upon, cleanup afterwards was good, everything done as discussed. I would recommend. (The insulation in our 1960s ranch was very insufficient before this project, I am pleased to see how much our gas usage has gone down these cold months compared to last year.)Brian CatalinoJanuary 28, 2024Completely happy. Brian and his crew did a great job on everything. Highly recommended.natalya LemkeDecember 27, 2023I wanted a blown wall insulation done for a long time, I got it , it was done perfect , on schedule with very friendly staff. Really recommend this service.Melody BrockDecember 7, 2023I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this company! They came out within a week of contacting for an estimate; we scheduled about a week or two out; job was completed in 1 day. These guys never even took a lunch break! We had removal and installation in our townhome which is about 2200+ square feet. Our family was having severe breathing concerns and our house just always was trying to combat the weather outside. HVAC was running nearly nonstop and multiple dehumidifiers running. I had no idea that bad insulation can break down and the dusting particles will end up in your HVAC system. The chemical compounds that were in my previous breaking down was alarming in and of itself. I was sold on their products being certified and certified technicians installing with 50 year shelf life. I will be dead most likely the next time insulation is needed. Definitely will continue recommending their services and the products they promote. After having a good week turnaround with the new insulation I am happy to report my HVAC has barely ran and we have not needed the dehumidifiers. Our entire family’s breathing has improved tenfold. Adding previous to new photos.Thomas CraddockNovember 16, 2023Outstanding service and fair price!! Highly recommended!!
