Insulating Paints, Roof Coatings and Radiant Barrier.

N.A.S.A. space suits include several layers of Reflective Foil Radiant Barrier to protect astronauts from intense space heat. Radiant barriers work just like your Thermos Bottle, which uses a reflective coating to keep beverages hot or cold all day.

Reflective Radiant Barrier is now available for home use. According to the Florida Solar Energy Center, Reflective radiant barrier foils consistently improve the performance of conventional insulation in ceiling and wall application.

 

Reflective Radiant Barrier has literally dozens of uses:
  • Attics
  • Walls
  • Floors
  • Radiant Heaters
  • Basements
  • Water Heater
  • Walk-In Coolers
  • And many more.
  • Crawl Spaces
  • Pipe Insulation
  • Garages
  • Freezers
  • Car Windows
  • Barns
  • Wall Socket Insulators

Radiant Barrier

Reflective Radiant Barriers greatly improve the performance of mass insulation - Why? - because regular insulation contains air or gas filter air spaces that retard primarily conductive heat flow. Reflective Radiant Barrier reflects a large portion, (95%), of incoming radiation, and transfers very little thermal energy to the house's interior. Without Reflective Radiant Barriers, your roof radiates solar generated heat to the insulation below it. The insulation absorbs the heat, and gradually transfers it to the material it touches, principally the ceiling. This heat transfer makes your air conditioner run longer, and consumes more energy.

Other benefits of Reflective Radiant Barrier include:

  • No maintenance
  • Easy installation
  • No special tools
  • Clean and lightweight
  • Rolls specially designed for residential retrofit
  • Proven durability
  • Environmentally Safe

Thousands of commercial and industrial companies have been using Reflective Radiant Barriers for many years, including Goodyear, Rockwell International, McDonnell Douglas, Cadillac, Xerox, Toyota, Coca- Cola, Digital and Ford.
