Reflective Aluminum Foil Insulation

Reflective Aluminum Foil Insulation as radiant barriers work by reflecting radiant heat. It can block 95% of radiant heat and provides superior thermal performance.

Reflective Aluminum foil insulation can be combined with many types of insulation materials in reflective insulation systems. In these combinations, radiant barriers can act as the thermal insulation’s facing material. Reflective Aluminum foil Radiant barriers are installed outside of the Glass wool, Rock wool, mineral wool, foam insulation materials. It as radiant barriers and vapor barriers can lower cooling costs 5% to 10%.

 

Reflective aluminum foil insulation consist of a highly reflective material – Aluminum foil, which is reinforced with Scrim in side. Aluminum foil is safe as an insulating material because it does not release any hazardous fibers.

 

Most common insulation materials work by slowing conductive heat flow and – to a lesser extent — convective heat flow. Radiant barriers and aluminum foil insulation systems work by reducing radiant heat gain. To be effective, the reflective surface must face an air space. Dust accumulation on the reflective surface will reduce its reflective capability. The radiant barrier should be installed in a manner to minimize dust accumulation on the reflective surface.
