Radiant barriers are installed in homes usually in attics primarily to reduce summer heat gain and reduce cooling costs.
Solar eclipse attic insulation.
The barriers consist of a highly reflective material that reflects radiant heat rather than absorbing it.
Either read the r value printed on the batts of your existing insulation or use a measuring tape ruler to measure the depth of the insulation inches.
Next i compared adding an additional r 19 to my existing r 19 level of attic insulation vs installing radiant barrier and the results actually surprised me a little.
The hotter it gets the better radiant barriers work.
They don t however reduce heat conduction like thermal insulation materials.
Sol r eclipse is a patent pending reflective insulation that delivers the highest r value available from a reflective insulation on the market today using the latest atsm testing.
