STONELEIGH MOTORS Hwy 27, Midland ' THE MANAGEMENT OF ENERGY IN CANADA. ONE OF A SERIES. STARTING NOVEMBER 3) CGSB-LISTED CONTRACTORS ARE REQUIRED CHIP" LOOK FOR THE CGSB SYMBOL BEFORE YOU HIRE AN INSULATION CONTRACTOR The vast majority of insulation firms are both capable and honest. But there have been cases of poor workmanship and even outright fraud. To help ensure good value for your insulation dollar, the Canadian General Standards Board has established a national certification program for residential insulation contractors. The contractors listed in the CGSB program certify to their clients that their quality of insulation workmanship meets the CGSB standard. Only those contractors listed in the CGSB certification program are authorized to use the CGSB symbol. USING A CONTRACTOR FOR CHIP? CGSB IS A MUST. CHIP (the Canadian Home Insulation Program) offers taxable grants of up to $500 to make your home better insulated and more airtight--if your house was built before January 1, 1961--whether you own or rent. After November 1, 1981, if you intend to apply for CHIP and have a contractor install the materials, you must use a contractor who is listed with the CGSB program. You won't be eligible for a grant otherwise. materials, that's fine. But remember, you must install the materials before - CHOOSE YOUR CONTRACTOR CAREFULLY If you prefer to do it yourself and use CHIP only to assist with buying applying for a CHIP grant. The new CGSB certification program will do much to reduce the problem of poor quality work by insulation contractors, but don't stop there. You should further protect yourself in these ways: 1. Plan your home's energy savings by filling in the free Ener$ave 'Energy Analysis' questionnaire. Call the Ener$ave Heatline toll-free for your copy. Call toll free 1-800-267-9563. Ottawa/Hull residents call 995-1801. 2. Ask friends or neighbours to recommend a contractor. 3. Verify the contractor's CGSB listing number with your CHIP office. Check the company's record with the Better Business Bureau or your provincial Consumer Affairs office. 4. Watch out for high-pressure sales techniques. 5. Compare costs. Get three estimates in writing which locate and specify the size of the area to be insulated, give the type of materials to be used and list their RSI (or R) value. (RSI is the new metric rating for insulation). 6. Check your contractor for details such as CGSB listing number, the estimate of your home's existing RSI (or R) value, the RSI (or R) value of insulation to be added, and the recommended RSI (or R) value for your area. 7. Monitor the job. If possible, stay home while the work is being done. Don't be shy about asking the contractor questions. 8. Never sign a blank or partly filled-in contract or CHIP application form. It takes planning and comparison shopping to find good value for your insulation dollar. But it's in your best interest to do it right from the start. Get in touch with your CHIP office in Toronto to find out whether your home is eligible and how to apply.
