Quality Insulation Inspection (QII) and you

As a builder, you understand the importance of energy efficiency in new homes. One key aspect of this is ensuring that the insulation is installed correctly and to the proper specifications. That's where Quality Insulation Inspection (QII) comes in.

What is QII?

QII is a program developed by the U.S. Department of Energy that requires third-party verification of insulation installation. QII inspections ensure that insulation is properly installed, without gaps, voids, compressions, or other defects that can reduce its effectiveness. The inspections are conducted by certified HERS raters, who use specialized equipment to measure and verify the insulation's R-value.

The Benefits of QII

There are several benefits to QII inspections for builders. First and foremost, they help ensure that the homes you build are as energy-efficient as possible. Proper insulation installation can reduce energy bills for homeowners and improve the overall comfort of the home.

Additionally, QII inspections can help builders avoid costly mistakes. If insulation is installed incorrectly, it may need to be removed and replaced, which can be time-consuming and expensive. By verifying the installation before the walls are closed up, QII inspections can help catch and correct any mistakes early on, saving builders time and money in the long run.
