Underfloor insulation is one of the most effective ways to improve energy efficiency, reduce draughts, and create a more comfortable home—particularly in Auckland’s variable climate. At Panda Solutions, we specialise in professional underfloor insulation services designed to help homeowners and landlords meet Healthy Homes Standards with ease and confidence.
Here’s how underfloor insulation is professionally installed.
What Is Underfloor Insulation?
Underfloor insulation is installed beneath suspended timber floors, typically between the floor joists. It acts as a thermal barrier, helping to retain heat inside the home while blocking cold air from rising up through the floorboards. This is especially beneficial during cooler months when heat loss through the floor can have a noticeable impact on indoor comfort and energy use.
Our Installation Process
- Site Assessment and Preparation
The first step is a full assessment of your property’s subfloor space. Our experienced assessors check for access, moisture levels, and any hazards such as mould or pests. Accurate measurements are taken to determine the quantity and type of insulation required. - Selecting the Right Materials
We use high-quality insulation materials with excellent thermal performance, including polyester rolls, glass wool batts, or rigid foam boards—depending on the specific needs of your property. All products meet or exceed current New Zealand Building Code and Healthy Homes requirements. - Precision Installation
Once on site, our qualified installers cut the insulation to fit precisely between the floor joists. The insulation is fitted snugly with no gaps or compression, ensuring maximum thermal performance. We secure the insulation in place using approved fixing methods such as strapping, mesh, or staples to prevent sagging over time and maintain a clean, professional finish. - Health, Safety, and Compliance
Our team adheres to strict health and safety protocols, including the safe handling of materials and working around electrical and plumbing components. We ensure every installation is carried out to industry best practices and fully compliant with Healthy Homes Standards.
Why Choose Professional Installation?
At Panda Solutions, we believe that quality installation is just as important as the insulation itself. Poor installation can dramatically reduce performance, which is why our trained experts take the time to get it right the first time.
Choosing a professional ensures:
- Proper assessment and material selection
- Compliance with all Healthy Homes and Building Code regulations
- Long-lasting, effective insulation performance
- Peace of mind for landlords, property managers, and homeowners alike
