Radiant Barrier Insulation
What Is Radiant Barrier Insulation?
A radiant barrier is primarily installed in attics, reflecting about 90% of heat away from the roof, rather than absorbing heat into the building. Radiant barrier insulation can be retrofitted to an existing building or added to new construction. Reflective properties of radiant barrier insulation increase the R-value of an attic’s existing insulation while establishing a cooler temperature in the summer and a warmer temperature in the winter.
Why Install Radiant Barrier Insulation?
Radiant barrier insulation has a long lifespan as it is composed of foil and does not degenerate over time. This insulation material does not release any harmful molecules into the air, is safe to breathe around, is non-carcinogenic and does not irritate skin. Radiant barrier insulation prevents indoor condensation as the material is designed with tiny lacerations which allow the material to breathe.
Wrapping pipes and water tanks in of radiant barrier insulation increases water temperature and prevents frozen pipes. Wrapping ducts with radiant barrier insulation extends the lifespan of HVAC systems. When added to attics, radiant barrier insulation increases R-Value and energy efficiency while preventing access of pests.
