Studies show that a majority of the heat that enters your home comes from the sun through the roof into the attic space and then travels through your ceiling into your living space below. On an average summer day, your attic space can quickly heat up to 40 degrees higher than the outdoor ambient temperature.
By installing a RadiantGUARD® radiant barrier in your attic, you can block 95-97% of this radiant heat making your home more comfortable while lowering your utility bills.
