Results You Can Expect With RadiantGUARD®
Below is an email and graph of temperature data submitted by a recent customer
who installed RadiantGUARD® under his rafters in his attic. Results
are typical of installations of this manner in summer months:
June 23rd, 2006
"I'm sure you have good data showing the effectiveness
of RadiantGUARD®, but I thought that I'd share my results with you
and your guys. You can take the engineer out of the business, but
you can't take the engineer out of the retiree. The middle grade radiant
barrier was very easy to handle and install without tearing or puncturing.
After installing 2000 sq.ft. RadiantGUARD® in my attic, mostly stapled
to the underside of the roof rafters, peak attic temperatures were lowered
about 11 deg. F. Corresponding electric power usage was lower by 20%
for the month of May compared to May 2005. For maximum benefits,
I made sure that ambient air vents fed both the attic space above and below
the foil, and the air space between foil and roof had unubstructed communication
with either ridge vents or mechanical ventilators. The only thing
better is to install a new roof using aluminized decking. Great Stuff!!"
