Tyvek coverall comes to mind. It is what the insulation pros wear. Another option would be a simple Dickies coverall – can be worn with minimal underclothing and changed into and out of at jobsite (in a discrete location)..

The attic stuff can't be overstated. The professional appearance thing brings up another question... how do you reconcile wanting your installers to look professional with swimming through insulation? One is seemingly impossible with the other. It's easy to sho up looking professional. Leaving the job site looking anything but ragged is the challenge.

The work consists of conditions including and not limited to high temperatures in summer and cold and wet in the winter, ladders extended 40 feet, very steep roofs with cliff like fall-offs, hot, hot attics, swimming through insulation in hot, hot attic and using a variety of power tools for work while swimming through insulation in hot, hot attics. A professional appearance is required and applicants should be personable, willing to take direction and able to maintain a positive and pleasant attitude. Pay is negotiable, but usually starts out at around $11.00/hour. Rapid increases in wages are the goal. The top wage in the industry is about $22.00/hour.

Jerry Hi Folks; I am considering hiring an apprentice, and I wanted to know if any else has tried this, and what advice and experience everyone had to offer. Also what would be the best way to advertise: Craig's List? Wanted passionate techy soul to share warm fires and cold brews with, watch beautiful sunsets over off grid arrays in remote locations, sometimes carry leaky hazardous materials..... mmmm. Obviously I need some help. Thanks in Advance, -- R.Ray Walters CTO, Solarray, Inc Nabcep Certified PV Installer, Licensed Master Electrician Solar Design Engineer 303 505-8760
