How Radiant Heat Transfers Through Roofs

TempShield® is used as insulation against radiant heat transfer and can be used to its greatest advantage in instances where radiation is the predominant means of heat transfer. It is the bright aluminized film surface of all TempShield® products that gives it its insulating properties. This happens in two ways:
- TempShield® is an excellent reflector of all long wave radiant heat that strikes it - reflecting up to 95% of all radiant heat.
- TempShield® will reradiate only 5% of heat in which it comes in close physical contact, compared with the approximate 90% reradiation of ordinary building materials, at the same temperature.
High-Efficiency Performance
Thin, lightweight TempShield® provides resistance against the three types of heat flow: conduction, convection, and radiation. It forms an effective barrier against moisture, air currents, and vapors while resisting mold, fungus, insects, and nesting rodents.
Easy to Use
TempShield® is lightweight, compact, and pliable; yet resistant to punctures, tears and cracking. Installation is quick and simple, and it conforms easily to fit complex shapes.
Outstanding Safety, Health, and Environmental Benefits
These products are clean, non-toxic, and fire-retardant (Class A/Class 1, flame and smoke spread). No special clothing or protective mask is necessary for handling or installation. As an environmental bonus, they are made with 20% recycled plastic.
Cost-Effective and Versatile
TempShield® is an economical solution for a wide range of industrial, manufacturing, and consumer applications. It costs about half as much or less than the common conventional insulation.
