Radiant Barrier & Reflective Insulation
RadiantGUARD® radiant barrier and
reflective insulation reduce heating and cooling costs by
reflecting radiant heat back to the heat source making your home more
comfortable both in the summer and winter months all while lowering your
energy consumption saving you money year round.
Our
radiant barrier and
reflective insulation
products are ASTM certified (including
ASTM e85)
and reflect between 95-97% of radiant heat

RadiantGUARD® Benefits
 Upwards of 93% of ceiling heat gain in summer months
can be attributed to heat from the attic space above caused by radiant energy
transferred by the sun. The radiant heat from the sun is absorbed
by roofing shingles and transferred to the roof decking below and into the
attic space. Conventional insulation absorbs much of this heat and
once its saturation point has been met, this heat is then transferred to
the living spaces below.
When stapled to the bottom of roof rafters in an attic
space, a RadiantGUARD® foil insulation can block
95-97% of the radiant heat from the roofing surface and thereby lower
overall attic temperatures by almost 30 degrees bringing the attic temperature
closer to the true outdoor temperature or even lower. By lowering
the temperature in your attic, you can reduce the amount of heat transferred
to your living spaces below by up to 50% giving you greater comfort in your
home and lessening the strain your air conditioning unit.
