(Why Choosing the Right Team Matters More Than You Think)

Here’s something many people don’t realise:

👉 Not just anyone can install insulation under the VEU scheme.

And that’s a very good thing.

Strict Accreditation Is Required

Installers must be:

• Approved under the VEU program
• Properly trained and certified
• Working with an Accredited Provider

This ensures every job meets safety and quality standards.

Why All the Rules?

Because insulation done poorly is just as bad, if not worse than having no insulation at all.
Risks include:

• Fire hazards
• Electrical issues
• Ineffective performance

Government-Backed Quality Control

The scheme includes oversight from:

• Energy Safe Victoria
• WorkSafe Victoria
• Essential Services Commission

👉 No shortcuts allowed

Ongoing Training & Workforce Expansion

The Victorian Government is investing heavily in:

• Installer training programs
• Certification pathways
• Industry growth

This means better service, better installs, better results.

What This Means for You

When you choose a compliant installer like ThermaHome, you’re getting:

✔ Certified professionals
✔ Safe installation practices
✔ Maximum rebate eligibility
✔ Long-term performance

The Risk of Going Cheap

Non-accredited installers might offer lower prices…

But you risk:

• Missing out on rebates
• Poor installation quality
• Safety issues

Insulation isn’t just a product, it’s a system.

And the installer? They make or break it.
