INSULATION REGISTER GIVES PIECE OF MIND TO FAIRFIELD RESIDENTS

Human Services Minister and local Federal MP, Chris Bowen has welcomed the deregistering of dodgy insulation installers from the Home Insulation Program.

“From today onward, dodgy insulation installers who have broken the rules will be deregistered and named to protect households in Fairfield,” Mr Bowen said.

“I have received a number of complaints about poor workmanship and problems caused by dodgy installers.”

“Deregistering and naming dodgy installers sends a strong message to installers and the public that the Government is taking non-compliance with the insulation program requirements seriously.”

From today onwards non compliance with the insulation program requirements will result in businesses being deregistered, meaning they can no longer access the Government rebate.

 “There’s no room in this program for businesses who aren’t willing to stand publicly by the quality of their work and who tarnish the work of reputable, hard working installation businesses,” Mr Bowen said.

“I encouraged householders to continue to check their installer is on the Installer Provider Register.”

The list of deregistered installers is now available at www.environment.gov.au/energyefficiency

If householders require further information on installers they are encouraged to contact the information line on 1800 808 571.
