Radiant barriers are materials that are installed in buildings to reduce summer heat gain and winter heat loss and hence to reduce building heating and cooling energy usage. The most effective radiant barrier sheathing is a structural roof sheathing panel which consists of an osb panel with heat reflecting foil laminated to one side. The potential benefit of attic radiant barriers is primarily in reducing air conditioning cooling loads in warm or hot climates. Specify decking with a radiant barrier laminated to one surface install foil product to underside of decking prior to decking installation install foil product to underside of roof trusses after decking is installed prior to ceiling drywall installation.

Product has a class a class 1 building material fire rating new heavy duty polyester woven fabric radiant barrier energy saving product.

A radiant barrier reduces the radiant heat transfer from the underside of the roof to the other surfaces in the attic. Attic mounted duct systems also benefit dramatically from our reflectix radiant barrier.
