INSULATION InsulSafe SP is a fiber glass blowing insulation used in residential and commercial construction as a thermal and sound absorbing insulation. It is designed for pneumatic installation in open (attic) and closed (sidewalls/floor) construction cavities. It may be used in retrofit applications.

ATTIC VENTILATION One of the keys to keeping your home cool during the summer is making sure there's proper ventilation in the attic. Temperatures there can climb to sweltering heights and make the rest of the house tougher to regulate. Attic ventilation also helps keep the air circulating in the attic which will extend the life of the roof because it keeps the heat from building up behind the shingles.
 
 
 
 
 
 
RADIANT BARRIER Radiant Barriers or reflective barriers work by reducing heat transfer by thermal radiation.  Per the department of Energy (DOE), a product classified as a ?radiant barrier? must have a high reflectance of 90% or more and a low emittance of 10% or less.  If I does not reflect at least 90%of the radiant heat, it can not be called a radiant barrier?

Editor's Notes

  1. Luckily for homeowners, there is a way to tell where the most energy is being used and where the problem areas are. Home Energy Audits’ are becoming very popular and in some states mandatory when a home is bought or sold.
