Radiant Barrier
What Is an Attic Radiant Barrier?
Radiant barrier is a multi-layer aluminum sheet that resembles foil. The material is extremely reflective, which is why it’s so effective at controlling heat transfer. When a radiant barrier is installed, it’s attached to the roof rafters in the attic, since this is where heat first enters a home via the roof. Radiant barrier installations from Orlando’s Roof Pros USA are one of the most inexpensive yet effective ways to reduce energy bills.
What Does a Radiant Barrier Do?
Due to the high reflectivity, radiant barriers can successfully reflect heat back to where it came from, i.e. the sun. This keeps the attic, along with the rest of the home, from overheating in the summer. Reflective surfaces also have low emissivity. This means the barrier itself doesn’t give off as much heat as other materials would.
Insulating your attic is one of the most important energy-saving projects you can complete in your home. Not only are you saving energy, you are also helping to reduce pollution. So, reducing the amount of energy we consume can have a big effect on the environment.
Blown-in Insulation
The Benefits of Insulating Your Attic
Damaged or missing attic insulation is one of the biggest reasons attributed to rising energy costs. This is why homeowners in Orlando need blown-in attic insulation. Whether it’s the humid summer months or the dry, frigid air of winter, a poorly insulated attic is costing you money. Most houses in Florida had very little insulation installed when they were first built.
Call now to get blown-in attic insulation here in Orlando to start cooling down your home and to save energy costs.
Understanding Attic Heat Flow
There are three kinds of heat flow in an attic that can lead to a hot house in the summer and a cold one in the winter:
1: Conductive: The heat is being held and passed through solid objects in and around the house, which can lead to overheating.
2: Convective: This is similar to a conductive heat flow but refers to cold air, water, and moisture and causes ice dams, which can run along the edge of your roof during the winter months.
3: Radiation: This heat flow is directly related to sunlight. On especially hot days, the heat from the sun radiates through the roof and penetrates the attic space, especially if you have traditional dark asphalt shingles.
