Reflective Insulation Is the Newest In Insulation
Reflective insulation is designed to reflect radiant heat
into or out of your house through simple physics. Traditional insulation traps
the hot air, preventing it from moving up and through the ceiling into the
house. At least until it can't hold anymore air. At that point, the hot air
begins to seep through your ceiling making your house warmer.
At the same time, in the winter as the hot air moves up
towards the ceiling, that same insulation will eventually let the hot air seep
into the attic space, making your house cooler. This can all be solved with
properly installed reflective insulation.
Just as its name says, it reflects radiant heat. When
installed along the inside of your attic roof, the radiant heat from the sun is
reflected back out of the house. This keeps your traditional insulation from
absorbing large amounts of heat, which in turn, helps keep your house
comfortably cool in the heat of the summer months.
Now the same principal applies when the insulation is
installed above your traditional insulation. However, instead of reflecting the
heat up and out of the house, it reflects it back into the insulation. Thereby
causing your traditional insulation to absorb the heat and send it back into
your house, keeping your house toasty warm on those cold winter nights.
No matter what type of climate you live in, reflective
insulation is designed for you. Easily and quickly installed, it will save you
money on your energy bill. And who doesn't like saving money?
Beyond saving you money, reflective insulation is a simple
step in going green. It not only saves energy while being used, it also is
greener to produce than traditional insulation, and can be recycled. All of
these things combine to make your carbon footprint even smaller, which is a
win-win situation.
