If you’re already offering TAP® Pest Control Insulation to your customers, there’s one simple product that can increase your ticket size, boost customer satisfaction, and solve real problems: the Hatchmaster.

This attic stair cover upgrade is affordable, effective, and easy to install — making it a natural complement to any insulation or pest control service. Here’s how to confidently pitch it and close the sale.

Lead with the Problem, Not the Product

Start by educating your customers about one of the most overlooked energy leaks in their home: the attic access point. Most pull-down stairs or scuttle holes are poorly sealed, allowing air and even pests to enter or escape.

Ask questions like:

  • “Have you ever noticed drafts near your attic access?”
  • “Do certain rooms feel colder or hotter than others?”

Once they realize the issue, you can position the Hatchmaster Attic Stair Cover as the smart solution.

Bundle for Maximum Value

Rather than selling the Hatchmaster as a standalone item, bundle it with TAP insulation to increase perceived value. You can offer a small discount for purchasing both, or highlight how they work together to improve comfort, energy efficiency, and pest prevention.

This tactic not only increases your average sale — it also reduces customer objections because the solution is positioned as comprehensive, not optional.

Use Visual Aids and Testimonials

Have a demo unit on hand or show before-and-after photos. Seeing the Hatchmaster in place helps homeowners visualize its impact and understand why it’s worth the investment.

Better yet, include a short testimonial from a happy customer or a case study showing energy savings. Real-world results go a long way in closing the deal.

Make It a Standard Part of the Consultation

When you introduce the Hatchmaster early in your insulation or attic pest control consultation, you’re planting the seed for an easy close. Don’t wait until the end to bring it up — present it as part of the full attic solution.

You could say:

“Whenever we install TAP insulation, we recommend sealing the attic entrance too — it’s a low-cost way to make sure all this new insulation performs at its best.”

5. Emphasize Return on Investment

At under $150 retail, the Hatchmaster often pays for itself in utility savings within the first year. Add in the benefits of pest prevention and improved comfort, and it becomes a no-brainer for most homeowners.

Selling the Hatchmaster upgrade isn’t about pushing a product — it’s about offering a more complete, high-value solution that addresses real homeowner concerns. When paired with TAP® Insulation, the Hatchmaster makes your service smarter, more profitable, and more appreciated.
