WHAT IS RADIANT BARRIER?
Radiant Barrier is an insulation material that reflects heat entering or leaving a home, building, shipping container, apparel or packaging. Heat gravitates toward cold, but instead of absorbing heat and delaying this process like traditional foam or fiberglass, Radiant Barrier reflects heat back to its source.
Radiant Barrier's effectiveness is not measured by R-value like traditional insulation. R-value measures how long it takes heat to transfer through a material or insulation. Radiant Barrier's effectiveness is measured by reflectivity. Radiant Barrier reflects 95 to 97 percent of the radiant heat back to its source.
We manufacture three products that incorporate radiant barrier:
- Super R® - a thin sheet Radiant Barrier reflective insulation, recommended for attic and house wrap applications. Ag-Barrier®, Deck Barrier® and RF Shielding are variations of Super R®.
- Tempshield® - a Reflective "Bubble" Insulation Radiant Barrier recommended for metal buildings, walls, basements, crawl spaces and packaging.
- Temptrol® - a metalized cloth Radiant Barrier reflective insulation fabric designed for clothing, curtains, and tents.
With over 35 years of experience, our technical experts can recommend one of our Radiant Barrier reflective insulation products for almost any residential or commercial application. Customer service is one of our strengths. When you call, you will speak to a knowledgeable radiant barrier expert.
SUGGESTED APPLICATIONS
Super R® radiant barrier and Tempshield® reflective insulation reflect 95 to 97 percent of the radiant heat entering or exiting a residence or commercial building. In practical terms, Super R® will lower the temperature of your attic 22-28 degrees F and save up to 50 percent of your AC costs, according to the Department of Energy.
Tempshield® Crawl Space Reflective Insulation
Tempshield® Reflective Insulation radiant barrier prevents heat from seeping through the floor and warming up the crawl space underneath during the winter.
Agriculture and Barn Insulation
Keeping farm animals and livestock warm in the winter and cool in the summer is of vital importance. Ag-Barrier® Radiant Barrier products’ flexibility, and ease of installation, makes it the farmer’s problem solver.
Metal Building
Tempshield® Reflective (Bubble) Insulation in a metal building application lowers the temperature of the structure and helps minimize condensation.
Super R Plus® Attic Insulation
Super R® Radiant Barrier stapled underneath the rafters or laid on the attic floor over existing insulation will result in up to 50 percent energy savings in the summer, according to the Department of Energy, and up to 10 percent savings in the winter.
