Insulators install and replace the material that saves energy and helps reduce noise in buildings and around vats, vessels, boilers, steam pipes, and water pipes. Insulators also install fire-stopping materials to prevent the spread of fire and smoke throughout a building.
Insulators often must remove old insulation when renovating buildings. Insulators use common hand tools, such as knives, trowels, and scissors. They also may use a variety of power tools, such as welders to secure clamps, staple guns to fasten insulation to walls, and air compressors to spray insulation.
Insulators sometimes wrap a cover of aluminum, sheet metal, or plastic over the insulation. Doing so protects the insulation from contact damage and keeps moisture out.
Floor, ceiling, and wall insulators install insulation in attics, under floors, and behind walls in homes and other buildings. To fill the space between wall studs and ceiling joists, workers either unroll, cut, fit, and staple batts of insulation or spray foam insulation. Previous experience in working with rolled insulation and spray foam insulation installation is needed.
Pay rate is $15 an hours during the training period. After training you are paid .08 per square foot of installed insulation. If you install 300 sq ft in an hour, it would equal $24.
