There are several important things commercial and residential building owners can do to reduce energy costs of a building or structure. When insulating a home or adding commercial insulation, it is critical to be sure to install the recommended amount of insulation. In many parts of the U.S., installing reflective insulation or radiant barriers can add significant resistance to the effects of radiant heat coming from the sun.
When radiant heat strikes the surface of a building the temperature of that surface increases as the radiant heat is absorbed. Mass insulation merely slows down the transfer of this heat to the interior of the building, whereas reflective insulation and radiant barriers can block 94 percent of radiant heat. Our wide variety of reflective insulation products can be used in addition to, or instead of, mass insulation to significantly reduce energy consumption in virtually any building — helping to save money while conserving our natural resources and environment.
