Radiant Barrier Insulation – Why is it a Crucial Part of Any Home Remodel?

Radiant barrier insulation is a vital part of your home’s complete protection against heat transfer. You probably already have insulation in your home in the form of fiberglass batts or spray foam, so you may be wondering why a radiant barrier is so important. The reason is quite simple; fiberglass and polystyrene foams only protect your home against heat convection and conduction. Radiant barrier insulation protects your home from heat radiation – the leading cause of heat loss and gain in homes. Moreover, fiberglass can compress or become damp over time and lose much of its r-value – or level of protection against conduction and convection, while a radiant heat barrier never absorbs moisture and retains its e-value – or level of radiant heat emissivity – for life.

The most comprehensive insulation solution for your next home remodel must protect against all three types of heat transfer, which is why installing eShield™ – the revolutionary, multilayer, reflective, radiant heat barrier along with your existing blanket or foam insulation is the best option for homeowners looking for serious energy savings. eShield™ is unlike any other radiant barrier insulation on the market. Its advanced design utilizes the same technology that protects astronauts from the sun’s rays in space, bringing you an unsurpassed e-value. This remarkable insulation protects home’s from an industry-leading 97 percent of radiant heat transfer, and some homeowners have experienced home energy savings of more than 50 percent.
