Central Insulation Systems
Asbestos boiler insulation removal services for residential and commercial properties in Ohio. Central Insulation Systems Inc. provides safe, compliant removal of asbestos-containing insulation from boiler systems for government agencies, corporations, industrial facilities, and homeowners.
Why You Can Trust Us
Asbestos boiler insulation removal requires specialized expertise to protect building occupants and ensure regulatory compliance. Our service addresses boiler systems in government buildings, hospitals, schools, industrial facilities, and older residential properties where asbestos-containing materials were commonly used for thermal insulation.
Common scenarios include planned boiler replacements, building renovations, maintenance projects where insulation has deteriorated, and situations where asbestos presence has been identified during inspections. We handle both emergency situations where immediate removal is required and scheduled projects that coordinate with broader renovation timelines.
Our service includes comprehensive site assessment, material testing, containment setup, safe removal using approved methods, waste disposal at licensed facilities, and all required documentation for regulatory compliance. We coordinate with building maintenance teams and general contractors to minimize disruption to building operations.
This service does not include boiler repair, replacement, or installation of new insulation materials. Property owners are responsible for any structural repairs needed after insulation removal and must arrange separately for new insulation installation if required.

I worked with Kevin Con, their field specialist. Kevin talked to me over the phone for quite awhile to make sure that I had a good estimate and knowledge of the procedure. The team came out early and they were efficient in the processes. I would highly recommend them especially because they worked so closely with our roofing team to get the job done in one day.

I am just so happy. They came out on a Tuesday (the owner Steve and his son) and took a look and had a crew of 2 out for me the next day! They got there at 8:30 am and all was completed by 2:00. The follow up was excellent. I could just go on and on. I am very impressed and want to insulate everything NOW because they were so excellent!

Common questions
asbestos pipe insulation basement boiler
You found white insulation wrapped around old pipes in your basement. It's cracking and pieces are falling off. You're worried about asbestos exposure.
Stop going in that area immediately. Do not touch or disturb the insulation. Crumbling asbestos pipe insulation releases dangerous fibers. Get it tested professionally. The 2 options are to have it covered with special encapsulating material or have it removed by a licensed abatement contractor.
how to choose asbestos removal contractor
You need to hire someone for asbestos removal. You've never done this before. You don't know what licenses to look for or what questions to ask to avoid getting ripped off.
Only hire EPA-licensed asbestos contractors. Check their license number online. Ask for proof of liability insurance. Get written estimates that include containment, removal, disposal, and air clearance testing. Avoid anyone who offers to do testing and removal.
how much does asbestos removal cost
You need asbestos removed from your home or building. The quotes you're getting are all over the place. You don't know what's fair or why prices vary so much.
Asbestos removal cost depends on the type (floor tiles vs. pipe insulation), square footage, and containment requirements. Expect $15-25 per square foot for floor tiles, more for pipe insulation. Get three quotes from EPA-licensed contractors only.
asbestos pipe insulation in mechanical room
You found white wrapped insulation around old pipes in your boiler room or basement. It looks like asbestos pipe insulation. You're not sure if it's dangerous or what to do next.
Don't touch or disturb the pipe insulation. Pre-1980 pipe insulation often contains asbestos. Get a sample tested by a certified lab first. If positive, hire an EPA-licensed contractor for safe removal and disposal.
asbestos floor tiles removal
You're renovating and found old floor tiles that might be asbestos. You stopped work because you're not sure if it's safe to remove them yourself.
Stop all work immediately. Do not sand, scrape, or break the tiles. Get a sample tested by a certified lab first. If it tests positive, hire a licensed asbestos abatement contractor. DIY removal is illegal in most areas and dangerous.
how much does asbestos removal cost
You got a quote for asbestos removal that seems expensive. You're wondering if the price is fair or if you should get more estimates.
Asbestos removal cost depends on square footage, material type, and access difficulty. Pipe insulation runs $15-25 per linear foot. Floor tiles cost $5-15 per square foot. Get three licensed quotes and compare line items, not just total price.
can I remove asbestos myself DIY
You found asbestos in your home. Hiring a contractor is expensive. You're wondering if you can safely remove small amounts of asbestos yourself to save money.
