A radiant barrier is a highly reflective construction material designed to reflect radiant heat instead of absorbing it. By deflecting heat away in the summer and retaining it during the winter, radiant barriers effectively regulate temperature. These barriers can decrease radiant energy emission by up to 97% and are commonly placed on attic roof rafters and walls.

Surprisingly, when it's 100 degrees outside, your attic can reach temperatures of 140 degrees or higher! Imagine all that excess heat seeping into your home! With our expert installation team, you can enjoy the benefits of lower energy consumption and increased comfort year-round by keeping your indoor environment cooler during hot summers and reducing the need for excessive air conditioning.
