What are the advantages of Reflective Insulation?
Unlike conventional insulation, reflective insulation and radiant barriers reflect radiant 97% of radiant heat, which accounts for up to 75% of all heat gain/loss in buildings. This results in tremendous savings on heating and cooling costs. Reflective products are not affected by humidity or moisture, unlike mineral fiber insulation, which can lose up to 35% of their insulating value at regular occurring humidity levels. Reflective insulation is also very effective at controlling condensation, especially in metal and agricultural buildings. Reflective Insulation and Radiant Barriers are very easy to install, require no special clothing or equipment, are environmentally safe, lightweight and durable. They can also be used effectively in a wide range of applications and industries.
