What do people use to reduce solar heat gain? Usually, they use Radiant Barriers or reflective insulation products. And if you are looking for energy efficiencies, then foil insulation can be an option. Radiant Barriers are especially beneficial for spaces like attic air ducts, asphalt roofing, or under-performing insulation. In addition, it is helpful for homes constructed in areas that experience hot climates and weather conditions.
When the Radiant Barriers are installed on the underside of the roofline, it will significantly reduce the heat that results from solar radiation, keep spaces cooler, maintain indoor temperatures at more comfortable levels, and help maximize energy efficiency and savings.
