Radiant Barrier Keeps Your Home Cooler and Energy Bills Lower

A radiant barrier is a powerful reflective material designed to reflect heat from the sun to enhance your home’s energy efficiency. We always recommend you install radiant barrier in attic spaces where roofs receive direct sunlight. Radiant barrier makes your home’s insulation and HVAC even more effective by blocking the sun’s heat before it has a chance to enter your home. Radiant barrier makes it easier to maintain indoor temperatures that keep you and your family comfortable.

Why Install Radiant Barrier Insulation?

  • Blocks over 90% of radiant heat: Unlike traditional insulation, radiant barriers reflect heat back towards its source rather than merely slowing it down.

  • Improves HVAC efficiency: Reduces the workload on your air conditioning, extending its lifespan and lowering energy consumption.

  • Enhances traditional insulation: Works alongside traditional R-value rated insulation to maximize its effectiveness by dramatically reducing heat exposure.

  • Reduces energy costs: Keeps your home cooler naturally, saving you money on energy bills year-round.

Common Myths: Radiant Barrier and Your Shingles

  • Does NOT harm shingles: Radiant barriers typically increase shingle temperature by only 2-5°F, which is negligible compared to typical roof temperatures of 160-190°F.

  • Warranty approved: Studies by the Florida Solar Energy Center found radiant barriers do not void shingle warranties when properly installed.

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on the room and space, and there are important steps to follow and considerations to make sure your insulation work actually gets the results you need:

  • Of course old insulation should be removed if it’s wet, moldy, or damaged. Contaminated insulation can harbor pests or reduce indoor air quality, so it's crucial to address underlying issues before proceeding.
  • Before installing new insulation, inspect the area for air leaks. Gaps around vents, electrical wiring, and plumbing should be sealed to maximize energy efficiency.
  • The type and thickness of batt insulation depend on your climate zone and the area being insulated. Another type of insulation like blown-in insulation may perform better for your unique home.
  • When installing batts, they should fit snugly between studs or joists without being compressed. Gaps or improper fit can reduce effectiveness.
  • Make sure the area is free from moisture problems, to avoid mold growth and reduced performance from damp insulation. Adding a vapor barrier may be necessary.

We use advanced equipment and techniques to custom-tailor solutions for every home. Even if you like to DIY we're happy to come out and give you a free inspection and estimate for the opportunity to let the pros handle making sure you get the best results.
